Document Summary
Is protein deficiency a public health crisis in. Not unless you have an existing condition: composition of amino acids, bioavailability. Yes but not very efficiently or in large enough quantities. No each has a different functional property like leucine which is involved in protein muscle synthesis. The essential amino acid that is in short supply in an incomplete protein source usually lysine or methionine. Animal proteins with the exception plant sources that have been modifies to remove anti-nutritional factors. Cow"s milk funded by dairy industry though: negative impact on health from eating animals, negative impact on the environment, positive impact on health from eating plants. Reduced mortality evidence was funded by nut council however. It gets oxidized (happens at 16. g/kg/day) excreted and not used for muscle protein synthesis. 3g/kg/day based on athletes on a caloric deficit however. Long time experienced exerciser you become more efficient with protein: leading source of essential amino acid, absorbed quickly, convenient.
