Continue ReadingThere are 20 amino acids that humans need. 12 of which your body can produce or āsynthesizeā on their own from the foods that you ingest. The other 8 are known as the āessential Amino Acidsā because your body is not able to make them on its own, and thus you must ingest them through your diet. It was once believed that you needed to obtain all 8 of those essential amino acids within one food. Foods that contained all 8 essential amino acids were called ācomplete proteinsā and those that contained only a few of the 8 essential amino acids were deemed āincomplete.ā Meat and dairy were deemed essential parts of our diet during this time, because they were complete proteins. It was believed that plant foods were inferior, because they often lacked one or more of the essential amino acids. Now we know that if you take in all the essential amino acids over the course of a week, your body is able to synthesize all the protein strands that you need. You do not need to take in all at essential amino acids in the same meal, or even in the same day. Amino acids are the exact same, whether they are ingested from a plant source of from an animal source. Also, no matter which source we take them in from, our bodies still have to break down the protein chains (the chains that connect the amino acids) and build them back up together to suit the human form....
