High-quality protein diet provides each of amino acids needed by the body. Proteins, when digested, become amino acids.

There are 20 amino acids that the human body uses to build proteins. These are classified as essential amino acids and non-essential amino acids. For best health, the body needs all the essential amino acids in right ratios.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The amino acid profile varies in plant proteins and animal proteins. Experts say that animal proteins have a good balance of all the amino acids needed by the body to function properly. On the other hand, plant proteins are low on certain amino acids like methionine, tryptophan, lycine and isoleucine.<\/div>\n
