30 interesting facts you did not know about... Protein!


1. Protein is a core building block for the trillions of cells in the human body. without protein, no life could exist. The only material which is more common in the body than protein is water. 18%-20% of the body is protein.

2. The human body has about 100,000 different types of protein. The body them needs to grow, heal and sustain all the body's chemical reactions.

3. The word protein  is derived from the Greek word - proteios meaning "first".

4. Proteins in the body come in many shapes and sizes. Simple proteins look like "little trains" with a lot of cars. Each "car" or such protein unit, is called an amino acid. What is common to all the different types of proteins in the body is that they are all complex chemicals made from over 20 different types of amino acids.

5. While beef is a much more popular meat than chicken, the protein content is lower than that found in chicken meat.


6. Excess protein can also cause weight gain.

7. In 2010, the athlete Ben Pearson, then 20, increased his protein intake to increase muscle size. However, he did not know he had a rare genetic disorder that prevented his body from breaking down proteins. High levels of protein in his body caused increased production of ammonia in the blood, causing the brain to swell and tragically, caused Pearson's death.

8. Hair is composed of insoluble fibrous and non-digested protein called keratin. Keratin protein appears in the form of a coil and a creates the horned tissue of the body, such as nails and hair. Curtin has sulfur bonds that make hair curly. The more sulfur ties, the more curly hair.

9. Proteins, like carbohydrates and fats, are considered one of the major nutrients, this is because they provide energy (calories) to the body. While proteins and carbohydrates provide 4 calories per gram, fat provides 9 calories per gram. The only other substance that provides calories is alcohol. However, it is not considered one of the major nutrition sources of the food because it is not nutritious and people do not need it to survive.

10. Proteins present in certain foods can cause allergies, because the structure of the protein may trigger an immune response. For example: Many people are allergic to gluten, a protein found mainly in cereal.

11. Of all the types of cheese, Parmesan cheese that is low in sodium contains the most protein - 41.6 grams per serving of 100 grams.


12. Of fish, yellow tuna contains the most protein (30 grams per serving of 100 grams). After it on the list: anchovies (29 gr), salmon (27 g), halibut (27 g) and tilapia (26 grams).

13. The older and bigger a legume, so the amount of protein in it is larger. Of legumes, roasted and fully matured soybean seeds and adults contain the largest amount of protein - 39.6 grams per 100 grams.

14. Pumpkin seeds provide 33 grams of protein per serving of 100 grams, while watermelon seeds provide a little less than 28 grams per 100 grams.

15. Too much protein can be dangerous to the body. For example, high levels of protein can create a strain on the liver and kidneys and cause them to work extra hard to dismantle and dispose of the extra protein.

16. One of the smallest countries in the world, Luxembourg, is one of the largest meat-eating countries in the world. In Luxembourg, each resident can average about -136 kg per year. In second place are Americans with an annual average of 125 kg per person, and Austria comes in at third place with an average annual consumption of 120 kg of animal protein.

17. Although the population in India exceeds a billion, it is considered the country with the lowest meat consumption, with an average of 3 pounds of meat per person. In second place, Bangladesh with an average of 4 kg of meat per person and in third place, the Democratic Republic of Congo with an average Annual of 5 kg of meat per person.

18. The protein in eggs is considered the highest quality protein of all foods.


19. In the past, cow protein was considered the most eaten animal protein, today it is the pig.

20. Researchers found that certain mutations in protein may increase the risk of autism. Specifically, when a protein called Shank3 mutates, it can cause a disruption in the connections between neurons, which affects the chances of autism.

21. Without the protein called albumin, the entire human body would be swollen from liquids.  Low levels of albumin are found in patients with hydrating (pathological accumulation of water), in people with extensive burns, kidney disease, problems absorbing food and people suffering from malnutrition. In third world countries - protein diet and lack of food are common problems that cause the swelling of the abdomen from the absence of albumin and osmotic imbalance of body fluids.

22. Protein deficiency can cause serious health problems. For example, children with protein deficiency may develop a condition known as Kooshiorkor. Symptoms include protruding belly, thinning hair, weight loss and faded skin color. If the phenomenon is not treated properly, it can lead to stunted growth, mental disorders and even death.

23. Protein found in male semen acts on the female brain to stimulate ovulation.

24. For most people, the recommendation is to consume 1 gram of protein per 1 kg of their body weight. Example: A man weighing 80 kg, should consume at least 80 grams of protein each day.

25. Failure to absorb protein can cause diseases such as Alzheimer's and cancer.

26. Insects provide a higher quality form of protein compared to many common forms of food. For example, 100 grams of beef steak contains 29 grams of protein and 21 fat - on the other hand, 100 grams of grasshopper contain 20 grams of protein and only 6 grams of fat.

27. Complete protein is a protein that contains all nine essential amino acids. In most cases (but not all) animal protein such as beef, chicken, fish, dairy products and eggs, is considered a complete protein. Incomplete protein sources for example are nuts and vegetables.


28. Protein intake affects the body in many ways. Mainly: bone cell synthesis, production of red blood cells, heart cells turnover rate, neurotransmitters responsible for mood, antibody immune function, producing enzymes and hormones, flexibility, muscle, organ function and balance of acidity.

29. Middle-aged people don't have the more flexible body of young people, which means they need to consume much more protein. But middle-age rate of acid production Hhidroclorit helps digest the protein down to half from its newsletters. Because protein is essential for cell regeneration, a large part of the researchers argue that this main reason for aging.

30. Vegetable sources of protein include legumes, nuts, seeds and fruit. Plants low in protein include roots and tubers, like yams and potatoes.

What is known as an aphrodisiac food, or a food meant to spur your sexual arousal actually has miraculous anti-aging effects. Oysters are nature's most concentrated form of zinc, a nutrient accredited with maintaing the collagen that keeps the skin firm. Zinc also plays an important role in encouraging the skin-cell renewal process. If you aren't a fan of oysters, you should try to consume turkey instead as it is also rich in zinc.

Salmon

Salmon is a miracle fish and it tastes great! The fish is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, healthy fats that help form a barrier against cell-damaging free radicals that also allow nutrients into the body. Because salmon contains DHA, a form of omega-3 known to enhance your immune system and fight against skin cancer, it is a healthy and useful food to add to your anti-aging diet.

Brazil Nuts

Brazil nuts have a number of outstanding benefits, one of them being their anti-aging properties. Brazil nuts have the highest selenium content of any food, which is good because this antioxidant inhibits aging by protecting the skin's elasticity and reversing sun damage. Brazil nuts are now relatively easy to find, and can be eaten plain or added to a salad.

Whole Grains

It's not secret that whole grains have positive effects on your hair and your skin. Whole grain cereal is fortified with B vitamins, like folate, B6 and B12, which are important for maintaining the luster and shine of your hair. They work by setting off the production of red blood cells, which carry oxygen and nutrients to your scalp and hair follicles. If you are not getting enough vitamin B, your hair may experience breakage, slow growth or even hair loss.

Butternut Squash

This delicious sweet and natural treat can be very good for you! Butternut squash contains beta carotene, usually found in orange-hued vegetables like sweet potatoes and carrots, which encourages hair growth. If you're not getting enough beta carotene, your hair may become dry and lifeless, and you may experience the drying of the scalp or dandruff.

Lean Beef

Eating a piece of lean meat or beef once in a while is a great way to maintain a healthy weight and could keep you looking younger! Lean beef contains keratin, part of the family of proteins responsible for the texture, shine and thickness of one's hair. If you're not getting enough keratin, your hair may look dull, unhealthy, and have a lack of volume.

Green Tea

New research suggests that green tea may actually cure dandruff or itchy, flaking scalp. The study from the Medical College of Georgia suggests that tea may help regulate a protein in your body that controls the life cycle of skin cells, which, when overproduced, could result in dandruff.
lemon and lime

Lemons and limes are considered 'high alkaline', meaning that they prevent the growth of harmful bacteria in the mouth. Squeezing one wedge of lemon into your water or your afternoon tea will help neutralize the acidity in your mouth and in your skin, which will goose the production of collagen.

Low-Fat Milk

If you are not drinking milk on a regular basis, you should probably start! Low-fat or full fat milks are a great source of vitamin D, which is important for keeping teeth and jawbones strong. A diet that is lacking in calcium can put you at risk for a number of diseases, such as periodontal disease, in which the gums and tooth enamel begin to erode.

Bell Peppers

Bell peppers contain a high degree of vitamin C, which helps to strengthen the blood vessels and the connective tissue that hold your teeth in your jaw. If you are worried about your teeth falling out or becoming weak, make sure that you eat enough of these, and get your daily dose of vitamin C, so that you can wear off a number of dental and other kinds of diseases.
