According to the government guideline, ages between 19-70 is recommended to have:
MALES: 0.84g per kg of body weight per day
For example, if a man weighs 85kg, his recommended intake is approximately 71g.
FEMALES: 0.75g per kg of body weight per day 
For example, if a woman weighs 70kg, her recommended intake is approximately 52g.

Proteins are polymers – specifically polypeptides – formed from sequences of amino acids, the monomers of the polymer. Amino acids are organic compounds made of carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, oxygen and sulfur. Protein structures range in size from tens to several thousand amino acids.]]> 2021-08-17 23:19:35 UTC https://padlet.com/sseaib1/8drpu8al3iizko82/wish/1682973004 https://padlet.com/sseaib1/8drpu8al3iizko82/wish/1682976793 1.antibody: Antibodies bind to specific foreign particles to help protect the body.

2.enzyme: They also assist with the formation of new molecules by reading the genetic information stored in DNA.

3.messenger: Messenger proteins, such as some types of hormones, transmit signals to coordinate biological processes between different cells, tissues, and organs.

4.structural component: These proteins provide structure and support for cells. They assist in the growth and repair of tissue (muscle) in the body. On a larger scale, they also allow the body to move.

5.transport : These proteins bind and carry atoms and small molecules within cells and throughout the body. eg- haemoglobin helps get oxygen to the muscles for movement and cell respiration]]> 2021-08-17 23:24:28 UTC https://padlet.com/sseaib1/8drpu8al3iizko82/wish/1682976793 ruwu6420_2 https://padlet.com/sseaib1/8drpu8al3iizko82/wish/1682981003 Protein isn't the most energy dense molecule in comparison to carbohydrates and fats, especially. As it primarily works on muscle repair and growth as oppose to the body's preferred form of energy, it has an energy content of 17 kJ/gram]]> 2021-08-17 23:29:50 UTC https://padlet.com/sseaib1/8drpu8al3iizko82/wish/1682981003 ruwu6420_2 https://padlet.com/sseaib1/8drpu8al3iizko82/wish/1682996596 Many people believe that endurance athletes should not eat too much protein because it can cause them to gain weight and slow down. In fact, endurance sports can also cause muscle damage, which also needs to be restored. Therefore, protein supplementation after training is just as important for them


Many people think that vegetarians don't get enough protein in their diet. In fact, plant-based proteins (such as common soy proteins) and low-fat dairy products for vegetarians are ideal sources of high quality protein


It's often thought that protein powder will affect my kidney system but the fact that the protein in the natural diet and protein powder is eventually digested and absorbed by the body is metabolized through the liver and kidneys, but it doesn't put extra stress on it. In particular, the high quality protein in protein powder is easier to be absorbed by the human body than the natural protein, and the pressure on the liver and kidney is smaller.
