Egg whites: Almost all the energy in egg whites comes from protein, whereas honey is essentially only sugar and no protein.
It would take one cup of honey to have the same amount of protein as 2 teaspoons of egg white (that's a third of the white of one egg)...
So honey is not a source of protein, it's a source of sugar. Egg whites are an excellent source of carb-free and fat-free protein.
What else can I help you with?
What is a example of a protein?
if you meant what is Protein in? Eggs (the white), steak, fish, chicken, cheese (lots fat too!). or if you meant what you meant... Amino acids.
What is the color of amino acids?
Amino acids do not have a specific color as they are typically white or colorless in their pure form.
What food has the highest biological value and is often used as a reference protein?
The building blocks of protein are amino acids. Each protein has its own specific number and sequence of amino acids. Amino acids can be classified as either essential or non-essential. Non-essential amino acids can be produced in the body from other proteins or carbohydrates. Essential amino acids, however, cannot be produced during metabolism by the body and therefore must be provided by our diet. Eight amino acids (Leucine, Isoleucine, Valine, Threonine, Methionine, Phenylalanine, Tryptophan and Lysine) are considered essential for adults, while nine (those mentioned above plus Histidine) are considered essential for children. When a protein contains the essential amino acids in a proportion similar to that required by humans, we say that it has high biological value. When one or more essential amino acids are scarce, the protein is said to have low biological value. The amino acid that is in shortest supply in relation to need is termed the limiting amino acid. The limiting amino acid tends to be different in different proteins, so when two foods providing vegetable protein are eaten at a meal, such as a cereal (e.g. bread) and a pulse (e.g. baked beans), the amino acids of one protein may compensate for the limitations of the other, resulting in a combination of higher biological value. High biological value proteins are provided by animal sources of protein, such as meat, poultry, fish, eggs, milk, cheese and yogurt. Low biological value proteins are found in plants, legumes, grains, nuts, seeds and vegetables.
What is the nutritional value of an egg white?
It give us proteins & egg white have food value
What is a white blood cell made up of?
Amino acids, nucleic acids, phospholipids, innorganic minerals, vitamins and gasses.
When boiling eggs you can smell sulfur what amino acids do you expect in the egg?
You can expect to find high levels of sulfur-containing amino acids such as cysteine and methionine in eggs. These amino acids are responsible for the sulfur smell that can be detected while boiling eggs.
Which does egg white or albumen provide?
The egg white is called the albumen.
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. Fortunately, the theory that plant proteins are somehow "incomplete" and therefore inadequate has been disproved. 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.
Why is cooking a egg is chemical reactions?
Cooking an egg is a chemical reaction because of how the proteins of the egg change through the heating process. The heating of the egg white, for example, converts the amino acids to a different protein arrangement that is of bound texture.
What is chemical composition of amino acid?
Amino acids are made up of an amino group (NH2), a carboxyl group (COOH), a hydrogen atom, and a variable side chain (R group) that differentiates each amino acid. There are 20 standard amino acids that make up proteins, each with a unique side chain that determines its specific properties and functions.
What are the best protein supplements?
From my personal experience the best protein supplement are the powdered whey proteins. I like them because they also have additional vitamins, minerals and amino acids. The whey protein may have a strange after taste to some. If that is the case you can also try different flavors or try the pure egg white protein, some of them are not fortified with all the same vitamins but you may like the taste better.
Can you live on white rice only?
I don't believe that you can. I believe rice is considered an incomplete protein, so it does not have all the essential amino acids that you body requires. It is common that you see many dishes with rice and beans which I think would be a complete protein. Whether or not you could just live one rice and beans is another question.
