Posted by Ishani Sharma on February 1st, 2022

Proteins are essential for the growth of any living organism. It is essential for people of all ages and lifestyles. The muscles, tissues, and cells of our body are mainly composed of proteins. These proteins are made up of amino acids that play an important role in the growth, development, and metabolism process of our body. For example, growing infants require protein for healthy growth and development. Adults need protein for the growth, repair, and maintenance of tissues and to support the bones, skin, and hair. The elderly need protein to prevent muscle loss and enhance muscle tone, bone mass, and strength. Our body is designed to use protein continuously; hence it\'s important to replenish the protein content in our body. According to ICMR, 2021 guidelines, a healthy adult requires approx. One gram protein per kilogram weight of the body each day. Due to our busy lifestyles and poor eating habits, many of us fail to consume the required amount of protein in our daily diet.
