Consuming two different incomplete proteins to obtain a complete protein involves matching ____________. A) essential supplements B) complementary proteins C) branched-chain amino acids and linear proteins D) animal and plant proteins

Respuesta :

B) is the correct option

Explanation:

Consuming two different incomplete proteins to obtain a complete protein involves matching complementary proteins

  • Proteins are part of every cell, tissue and fluid in our bodies and are made of amino acids, which can be thought of as building blocks
  • The body uses 20 different amino acids to make its proteins but there are some amino acids that the body cannot make in required amounts which are called essential, and hence they must come from the diet
  • Complete protein foods have all the essential amino acids
  • Animal foods such as meat, poultry, eggs, dairy and fish are complete protein sources,incomplete protein sources have only low amounts of some of the essential amino acids
  • Combining two or more foods with incomplete proteins, to form complementary proteins, can provide adequate amounts of all the essential amino acids
  • Complementary proteins do not need to be eaten together, so long as the day's meals supply them all
  • Some of the food pairings that make a complete protein: Legumes with grains, nuts, seeds or dairy ;Grains with dairy ;Dairy with nuts
