Proteins are one of the most amazing group of molecules in the human body. They are complex combinations of smaller chemical compounds called amino acids. These are like the bricks or building blocks of a building.
There are about 22 amino acids. Some can be made in the body from other amino acids, or in other ways. However, at least 8 or 10 of them must be obtained from our diet. All of the amino acids contain oxygen, hydrogen, carbon and nitrogen. Many also contain sulfur.
Like building blocks, millions of these amino acids are chained together, stuck together, and folded over each other to form complicated shapes and structures to create millions of critical body components.
Metaphorical definition. Proteins are associated with motion, the basic quality of animal life. While plant life is more concerned with sugars and carbohydrates, animal life is more concerned with
proteins. (However, all life contains both proteins and carbohydrates.)............
