No, Plant foods are considered incomplete proteins because they are low or lacking in one or more of the amino acids we need to build cells. Incomplete proteins found in plant foods can be mixed together to make a complete protein.

Animal based proteins are much more similar to our proteins, therefore are used more readily and rapidly than plant proteins.

Proteins that come from animal sources are?

Animal proteins are complete. Plants provide amino acids which can be used by your body to assemble proteins if enough of the right amino acids are present.


What are the different types of protein and how do they differ in terms of their sources and benefits"?

There are three main types of protein: animal-based, plant-based, and dairy-based. Animal-based proteins come from sources like meat, poultry, fish, and eggs. Plant-based proteins come from sources like beans, lentils, nuts, and seeds. Dairy-based proteins come from sources like milk, cheese, and yogurt. Animal-based proteins are considered complete proteins, meaning they contain all essential amino acids needed by the body. Plant-based proteins may be incomplete, but can be combined to form complete proteins. Dairy-based proteins are also complete proteins. In terms of benefits, animal-based proteins are rich in essential nutrients like iron and vitamin B12. Plant-based proteins are high in fiber and antioxidants, and may help reduce the risk of chronic diseases. Dairy-based proteins are a good source of calcium and vitamin D for bone health.


Complete proteins are found in foods that come from what sources?

Soy and animal proteins such as meat, dairy products (except butter) and eggs contain complete proteins.


What is the bad sources of protein?

Bad sources of proteins are foods such as Fried Chicken, Fast food type proteins (McDonald hamburgers), and Deli proteins. The difference between good proteins and bad proteins are good proteins come with other good nutrient sources while as bad proteins are going to come with carcinogens and high saturated fats which make these food sources not good to consume. Ex. Fried Chicken is going to be a ton worse then a good source of protein such as grilled chicken why this is? Grilled chicken is going to come with much better nutrients than fried chicken.


Where do the best sources of lysine and leucine come from?

Lysine is found in high amounts in animal products like poultry, beef, and pork, as well as in plant-based sources like legumes, nuts, and seeds. Leucine is abundant in animal proteins such as chicken, beef, and fish, as well as in plant sources like soybeans, lentils, and pumpkin seeds. Both amino acids are essential for muscle growth and repair.


Which 2 macronutrients come from both animal and plant sources?

The two macronutrients are carbohydrates and protein.


What are cartilage supplements made of?

Cartilage supplements come from such animal sources as cattle, sheep, sharks, and chickens, with cows and sharks being the predominant sources.


What is the source of these food molecules?

The source of food molecules varies depending on the specific nutrient. Carbohydrates come from plants like fruits, vegetables, and grains. Proteins are found in both plant sources like legumes and animal sources like meat and eggs. Fats come from sources like oils, nuts, and animal products.


How do proteins of food differ from those of the organism who consumed them?

Proteins in food are genetically programmed to give energy to the organism which eats them once digested, broken into its simplest form( amino acids ) and assimilated into the organism's system.The proteins however, in an organism are meant to either to provide structural strength and integrity to muscles or to digest food.


Sources of natural fibers are?

Natural fibers come from plant, animal and mineral sources. For example cotton fiber comes from the cotton plant / boll. Linen from the flax plant.


Where does meat come from?

From animals like sheep, pigs, cows, chickens etc.


Where doesaminocid come from?

Do you mean Amino Acid? Amino Acids are proteins, and the body cannot produce them itself. There are Complete Proteins which have all 27 of the essential Amino Acids in them. Examples would be meat, fish, eggs, dairy products. Then there are Incomplete Proteins which have some, but not all, of the 27 essential amino acids, and they are vegetable in origin and examples include beans and nuts.
