says that legumes are carb heavy?
and that they are an incomplete protein?
. here at gov`s food composition database
http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/search/
we see that the protein is merely imbalanced:
given an amount of egg with 12.58g protein (143 calories)
and a similar amount of pinto bean
10.50g protein (124 calories)
that serving of pinto bean gives us
23 grams of low-glycemic carbs,
and shorts us with some critical aminos
(mg per serving):
amino egg pinto (pinto`s percentage of what egg gives)
methionine 380 110 (29%)
cysteine 274 120 (44%)
tryptophan 167 110 (66%)
. however!
one very important mineral that is often missing from beans
is selenium -- that pro-longevity powerhouse --
which is a mineral only tolerated by legumes, not needed by them,
and which is available to farm-raised animals, salt-water wild fish,
and salt-water vegetables .
. legumes have been the most important dietary predictor of longevity

but when a culture`s legume is soy,
they also eat most of it fermented (reduces gas and toxins),
. the key to a legume`s healthfulness is its
time-releasing of carb' and protein,
and the fact that its soluble fiber promotes
bacterial production of butyrates and vitamin k .

Are all the essential amino acids in baked beans?
The most limiting amino acid in cereal grain proteins (wheat, rice, corn) is lysine. The limiting amino acid in legume protein (peas and beans) is methionine.
Does corn have amino acid?
Yes , but as part of proteins .
What does not contain all of the essential amino acids chicken fish corn or milk?
All of the essential amino acids our bodies need can only be obtained from first class proteins. In other words, animal proteins such as chicken, fish etc. We only get some of the amino acids our bodies need from plants. From milk we obtain all of the essential amino acids so I would say the answer is that we don't get all of the essential amino acids from corn. Hope this helps :)
Is popcorn the healthiest food?
No. Popcorn is made of corn. Corn has a very bad amino acid profile and low micronutrient content.
What energy is being tranferred when a chicken eats corn?
Corn is an excellent source of vitamin B1, B5, C, E, folic acid, magnesium and phosphorus. It is low in protein, due to the minimal content of the amino acids lysine and tryptophan. Corn is a good source of complex carbohydrates, fibre, and healthful essential fatty acids.
What are the benefits of corn?
Corn is low in fat and calories and is a good source of fiber, with three grams per ear, and a high ratio of insoluble to soluble fiber. Corn is a good source of fiber, with a high ratio of insoluble-to-soluble fiber. Yellow corn is high in Vitamin A; white corn has much less. Both offer moderate amounts of folate and vitamin C, with magnesium and potassium in abundant quantity. All varieties of corn have their own antioxidant profiles. Yellow corn contains the antioxidant carotenoids, with especially high concentrations of lutein and zeaxanthin. Blue corn has anthocyanins. Purple corn contains a hydroxybenzoic acid, protocatechuic acid. Corn provides three grams of protein per ear. Corn is lower in lysine and tryptophan, two essential amino acids, than beans, but higher in methionine. Eating corn along with beans and squash, as the Native Americans did, provides a perfect balance of essential amino acids. Sus beneficios son ke tiene muchas proteinas y calcio en tus granos de elote. You may have a good amount of carbohydrates because corn has starch and starch has carbohydrates. Carbohydrates result in giving you energy.
What may eventually happen to the body's tissues if the diet does not contain esential amino acids?
Most foods contain all the essential amino acids.Protein is made from amino acids. Humans can synthesize most of the amino acids that we need to make protein, with the exception of nine essential amino acids (histadine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine) that must come from the foods we eat.In 1914, Thomas B. Osborne and Lafayette B. Mendel conducted studies which suggested that rats grew best when fed a combination of plant foods whose amino acid patterns resembled that of animal tissue. The term "complete protein" was coined to describe a protein in which all nine essential amino acids are present in the same proportion that they occur in animals. "Incomplete protein" described the varying amino acid patterns in plants. It's a misleading term, because it suggest that humans (and other animals, one would assume) can't get enough essential amino acids to make protein from plants.Fortunately, the theory that plant proteins are somehow "incomplete" and therefore inadequate has been disproven. All unrefined foods have varying amounts of protein with varying amino acid profiles, including leafy green vegetables, tubers, grains, legumes, and nuts. All the essential and nonessential amino acids are present in any single one of these foods in amounts that meet or exceed your needs, even if you are an endurance athlete or body builder.Whenever you eat, your body stores amino acids, and then withdraws them when it needs them to make protein. It is not necessary to eat any particular food or any particular combination of foods together at one sitting, to make complete protein. Your body puts together amino acids from food to make protein throughout the day.
What energy is being tranferred when a chicken eats corn kernals?
Corn is an excellent source of vitamin B1, B5, C, E, folic acid, magnesium and phosphorus. It is low in protein, due to the minimal content of the amino acids lysine and tryptophan. Corn is a good source of complex carbohydrates, fibre, and healthful essential fatty acids. Nutritional energy would be the word you are looking for.
Is uric acid high in corn?
please let me know if corn ( vegatables) is high uric acid
A complete protein has?
Your body can synthesize most of the 22 amino acids that you need to make protein, with the exception of nine essential amino acids (histadine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine) that must come from your food. Fortunately, all unrefined foods have varying amounts of protein with varying amino acid profiles, including leafy green vegetables, tubers, grains, legumes, and nuts. All the essential and nonessential amino acids are present in these foods in amounts that meet or exceed your needs. In 1914, studies on rats suggested that they grew best when fed a combination of plant foods whose amino acid patterns resembled that of animal protein. That makes sense, as all baby mammals, rats and humans included, grow best when fed the perfect food for baby mammals: their mother's milk. The term "complete protein" was coined to describe a protein in which all eight or nine essential amino acids are present in the same proportion that they occur in animals. "Incomplete protein" described the varying amino acid patterns in plants. It's a misleading term, because it suggest that humans (and other animals, one would assume) can't get enough essential amino acids to make protein from plants.

Examples of incomplete proteins?
Incomplete proteins include Almond (nuts), grain and beans.
