Proteins do not provide insulation under the skin; that role is primarily fulfilled by fats, particularly adipose tissue. While proteins are essential for building and repairing tissues, including skin and muscle, they do not serve as a significant source of thermal insulation. Instead, insulation is mainly created by the layer of fat beneath the skin, which helps regulate body temperature.
