of Nutrition and Energy
Proteins are essential in everybody's diet. They are known as the building blocks of life. Proteins are complex substances found in many foods and are made up of thousands of small units called amino acids. Proteins from different foods in our diet contain different amino acids. There are 20 amino acids, divided into essential and non-essential amino acids. Essential amino acids must appear in our diet because they 
cannot be made by the body. Brain cells, muscle, skin, hair and nails are just some of the body parts that are protein-based. Estimates suggest that about half of the human body’s dry weight is made up of protein. Many of the foods we eat contain protein, particularly flesh foods (chicken, beef, lamb and fish etc.) and legumes like beans and lentils. These proteins are digested to release amino acids. In the body the amino acids are used to make new proteins, converted into hormones and enzymes or used as an energy source.
Amino Acids Explained
Proteins are made up of chains of smaller chemicals called amino acids. There are 20 different amino acids that, in different combinations, make up the countless millions of proteins available in nature. Amino acids are needed to build the various proteins used in the growth, repair, and maintenance of body tissues. Amino acids play innumerable roles in human health and disease.
A protein can consist of between 50 and tens of thousands of amino acids, linked together by a kind of ‘glue’ called a peptide bond. There are two broad classes of amino acid: those that can be made by the human body (non-essential amino acids) and those that can only be supplied by food (essential amino acids).
Digestion of Proteins
A protein-rich food, such as meat, is broken down into individual proteins by the gastric juices in the stomach. Pancreatic enzymes released into the first portion of the small intestine (duodenum) split the proteins into their separate amino acids. The amino acids are absorbed by the small finger-like projections (villi) lining the intestine walls, and taken to the liver via the bloodstream.
A protein’s nutritional value is judged by how many of the essential amino acids it provides and in what quantity. Different foods contain different numbers and amounts of amino acids. Generally speaking:
- Animal products (such as chicken, beef or fish) contain all of the essential amino acids.
- Plant proteins usually lack at least one amino acid. Exceptions to this are soy products and the seed of a leafy green called Amaranth
How Amino Acids are Used
The human body uses amino acids in three main ways:
- Protein synthesis - new proteins are created constantly. For example, as old, dead cells are sloughed off the skin surface, new ones are pushed up to replace them.
- Precursors of other compounds - a range of substances are created using amino acids: for example, the brain chemical (neurotransmitter) serotonin and the ‘fight or flight’ chemical adrenalin.
- Energy - although carbohydrates are the body’s preferred fuel source, about 10 per cent of energy is derived from protein.
SynerProTein
SynerProTein is a low-fat, balanced protein supplement providing essential amino acids, vitamins and minerals, and a great vanilla or chocolate flavour.SynerProTein is a blend of soy protein isolates from non-genetically modified (non-GMO) soybeans.
Diets low in saturated fat and cholesterol that include 25 grams of soy protein per day may reduce the risk of heart disease. One serving of SynerProTein provides 18 grams of soy protein. Soy contains all of the amino acids essential for human nutrition, making SynerProTein a perfect supplement for vegetarians and people who are looking for a non-animal source of these vital nutrients.
SynerProTein contains Nature’s Sunshine’s proprietary SynerPro Concentrate which provides an array of nutrients and powerful antioxidants that are important for optimal health and for combating free radicals. SynerPro Concentrate includes broccoli (Brassica oleracea), carrot (Daucus carota), red beet (Beta vulgaris), rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis), tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), turmeric (Curcuma longa), cabbage (Brassica oleracea), grapefruit and orange bioflavonoids, and hesperidin (bioflavonoid).
Benefits of SynerProTein:
- Provides 20 grams of soy protein per serving.
- Provides nine essential amino acids.
- Contains the SynerPro herbal blend of concentrated cruciferous vegetables.
- Is low-fat, low-carbohydrate, yeast-free and gluten-free.
- Features a new, improved natural vanilla flavour.
