HUMAN NUTRITION

Detailed explanation-1: -Foods that contain all nine essential amino acids are called complete proteins. These foods include beef, poultry, fish, eggs, dairy, soy, quinoa and buckwheat. Foods that contain some but not all the essential amino acids are called incomplete proteins. These foods include nuts, seeds, beans and some grains.

Detailed explanation-2: -Lysine, Methionine, Threonine, Tryptophan and Valine are commonly used in feeds, since these essential amino acids tend to be deficient in natural feedstuffs. The Group produces feed-grade Lysine, Threonine, Tryptophan and Valine.

Detailed explanation-3: -A complete protein, by definition, contains all the essential amino acids. Complete proteins usually derive from animal-based sources of nutrition, except for soy.[4][5] The essential amino acids are also available from incomplete proteins, which are usually plant-based foods.

Detailed explanation-4: -Different foods contain different amounts of essential amino acids. Generally: Animal products (such as chicken, beef or fish and dairy products) have all of the essential amino acids and are known as ‘complete’ protein (or ideal or high-quality protein).
