The human body is in a continuous fluctuation with the environment. Matter and molecules stream in and out, casting themselves into its complexities. Though the body lends them structure, it is the intake -- the diet -- that decides its physique. To be in charge of what goes in a diet is to select what stays inside. Dietary decisions replicate an awareness of metabolism and the nutrients needed to vary it. There may be a myriad of diets purported for every leisure interest and ailment. In spite of this, the one macronutrient that is always mandatory, in substantial quantities irrespective of the physiological state, is protein.
Proteins hold this special position in each diet for a multiplicity of reasons. They tie the DNA to the rest of the cell and modulate every cellular functions and responses. They are the scaffolds of the human body that struts a billion cells. Proteins are as well the workers that shuffle around the body relaying messages, executing upkeep and digestion. Oxygen from the lungs and several nutrients from the stomach are protein full and taken to their destination. The motors in the muscles and the antibodies in the immune system are all proteins. If genes code live in a helix of DNA, subsequently proteins are time in its decoded form. Their pervasiveness makes them central and, protein synthesis a priority in metabolism.
Tally to this innumerable number of functions the vast turnover speed of proteins, and endless protein synthesis becomes very important. Every protein has a short life span and is in then to no time broken down into its constituent amino acids. Original proteins are mandatory to acquire their position. The skin itself is renewed every seven days. After that there are proteins that get used up, broken or excreted, and need to be produced another time. Protein synthesis goes on at a frenzied swiftness regular in customary people. After that there are periods of hurried progression, like athletes in training, teenagers, convalescent patients, babies, pregnant or lactating mothers, where protein synthesis reaches an all time high. Proteins are broken down for additional reasons too. In times of strain, disease or starvation, the body clearly cannot find enough sources of energy. In such situations, proteins are brought apart into their component amino acids and are used as fuel. Consequently, in every physiological states, cells are incessantly at work, churning out new proteins.
To preserve this essential and intense pace of protein synthesis, the body needs a dedicated supply of amino acids. Regrettably, not like carbohydrates and fats that are stockpiled, the human body has no arrangement to store extra amino acids. The constant demand for proteins and amino acids has to be met anew each day and from three promising sources: cellular production, the diet, or breakdown of further body proteins. Of these, cellular production would be most opportune. If the cell could fabricate all the necessary amino acids, there would be no compulsion to provide them in the diet. However, there are amino acids that clearly cannot be produced in the body. These 'essential amino acids' have got to come from the diet.
Proteins, from the diet or supplements, are the greatest substitute. The supply of all amino acids can be ensured and in adequate quantities. Cellular metabolism is relieved of the requirement to yield amino acids exclusive of producing minor adjustment in the supply chain. Protein synthesis can go on permanent. Unless the diet meets the lasting demand for amino acids, other, relatively expendable body proteins are broken down to meet the obligation. In effect, a dietary inadequacy of proteins forces the body to feed on itself.
The need for proteins in each diet is irrefutable. The regular American diet provides 1.2 g/kg of protein against the recommended daily allowance of 0.8 g/kg. The question, next, is whether to combine protein supplements to an existing diet? Though proteins from food might seem satisfactory, there is no telling whether all essential amino acids are supplied, and there is little way of knowing how easily those proteins are digested and assimilated into the body. A meticulously researched protein liquid like Profect, when taken regularly, would remove such doubts.
Apart from supplying amino acids for protein synthesis, a high protein diet based on Profect has additional benefits. Studies on high-protein diets have demonstrated their capability to stimulate weight loss. A high-protein diet produces initial satiety and brings down the total energy intake. Protein synthesis, an energy consuming process, is promoted. The energy to assimilate such a diet, calculated as the 'Thermogenic effect of feeding', is high. More calories are burnt, more proteins are synthesized and the lean body mass increases although the body weight goes down. Brawn is exchanged for flab.
Proteins from Profect form bioactive peptides in the stomach that can improve gut defenses. The destructive stomach bacteria are killed and normal flora is permitted to colonize the intestinal lining. Profect also protects the system from free radicals, free electron molecules formed during extreme activity and strain. Unbound radicals are known to harm cell membranes. Their role in aging, cancer and blood clotting is being intensely investigated. Profect grows the levels of Glutathione, a free radical scavenger that cleans up unbound radicals defending the cell from their effects. The added water-soluble vitamins and mineral in Profect preclude the loss of calcium and other micronutrients seen on high-protein diets. - 30414
