Key Aspects of Protein:
Essential Amino Acids: Some amino acids can’t be made by the body and must come from food (e.g., histidine, leucine, lysine).
Building Blocks: Proteins are long chains of amino acids, the fundamental components of life.
Body Functions: They provide structure, catalyze reactions (enzymes), transport molecules, and support the immune system.
Dietary Sources: Common sources include meat, fish, dairy, eggs, legumes (beans, lentils), nuts, and seeds.
