3 The Power of Protein Daily! By Dr. Jay P. Vanden Heuvel IMD, PhD, DHS

4 Why 30-40% of your daily intake should be Protein: Important component of every cell. The building blocks of life - hair, nails, bones, muscles, cartilage, skin, blood, repair tissues, makes other molecules like enzymes, and hormones. The basic structure of protein is a chain of amino acids or tinker toys. Important for growth and development and assist in DNA cellular repair. We simply can t do without it! (10,000 different daily combinations). Protein contains sources of Nitrogen. 20 different building blocks (amino s).

5 A lean mean fighting machine (stronger and more capable). Manages our weight and muscle mass (amino s actin/myosin). Transports oxygen from the lungs to other tissues (Hgb). Gamma globulin for immune response Protein reasons: Albumin helps regulate blood pressure. Provide collagen and elastin. Blood clotting, source of energy, store energy, transport energy. (In morning) helps regulate blood sugar and satiety. Help enzymes do their job! Protein kinases.

6 Vegetable, nuts, seeds, grains, fish, and animal (dairy). Sources Interesting fact: Did you know the only vegetable that is a complete protein (all essential amino s) is Soy? Soybeans produce 2X as much protein per acre of land than any other crop/grain.

7 Protein Requirements DRI (Dietary Reference Intake) is 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight, or 0.36 grams per pound, so Babies - about 10 grams a day School-age grams a day Teenage boys - up to 52 grams a day Teenage girls - 46 grams a day Adult men - about 56 grams a day Adult women - about 46 grams a day This is a minimal amount for sedentary people. Athletes, pregnant women and nursing mothers need more Optimal amounts may be much higher. Higher protein intake (coupled with lower carbohydrate intake) may assist in weight management. Hint: never skip breakfast and start with protein around 20 grams. Helps release TSH and balance blood sugars throughout day. (A. of Intern. Med. 2010)

8 Although animal proteins provide all the amino acids we need, vegetable is the fastest growing category of protein enhancement and feeds the microbiome. (Nutritional Outlook March 2017) Proteins in food/environment are responsible for food allergies. But eating healthy protein sources like vegan, fish, beans, or nuts in place of red meat (especially processed) can lower risk of several diseases and premature death. (Arch Intern Med, (7): p ) In terms of the amount of protein consumed, there s evidence that eating a high-protein diet may be beneficial for the heart, as long as the protein comes from a healthy source. Animal vs. Vegetable?

9 Animal vs. Vegetable? Vegan sources generally are easier to digest, have a lower calorie content, higher vitamin/mineral content. Worldwide: Plant proteins contribute 60% supply. In North America, Animal offerings are 70% of supply. Great source of vegan is legumes or pulses. Soy or yellow pea. Vegan sources tend to be less acidic and more kidney friendly (Consider adding nuts and seeds to diet as well). (Vernon Young, Peter Pellett (1994). "Plant proteins in relation to human protein and amino acid nutrition" American Journal of Clinical Nutrition)

10 Ronald McDonald (Jeff Juliano) is a vegetarian. Dave Scott - California - won the Hawaii Ironman Triathlon 4 times. He is a true vegetarian. Robert Sweetgall - Delaware - has walked a distance greater than 24,900 miles in ultradistance walking. He is a vegetarian. But isn t Vegan Protein inferior? Alan Jones - Virginia - has the world record for sit-ups: 17,003 without a break. He also lifted a 75# barbell over his head 1,600 times in 19 hours. Skipped rope 43,000 times in 5 hours. Another 100,000 times he skipped rope in 23 hours. He swam 68 miles without a break in a swimming pool. He too is a vegetarian.

11 Substituting one serving of nuts, low-fat dairy products, or whole grains, for a serving of red meat each day lowered the risk of developing type 2 diabetes by an estimated 16-35%. Ley, S. H., Sun, Q., Willett, W. C., Eliassen, A. H., Wu, K., Pan, A., & Hu, F. B. (2014). Associations between red meat intake and biomarkers of inflammation and glucose metabolism in women. Am J Clin Nutr, February Protein Quality matters more than Protein Quantity

12 Nurse s Health Study and the Health Professionals Follow-Up Study: every additional serving per day of red meat or processed red meat was associated with a 10 & 16 % higher risk of cancer death, respectively. One study showed that eating approximately one daily serving of beans, chickpeas, lentils or peas can increase fullness, which may lead to better weight management and weight loss. Obesity, Aug;22(8): Quality vs. Quantity.

13 Protein Digestion Proteins must be broken down into free amino acids to be absorbed and utilized Hydrochloric acid and pepsin begin this process in the stomach It is completed by pancreatic and small intestinal proteases HCl or enzyme deficiencies may result in poor assimilation of proteins

14 Essential and Non-Essential Amino s Essential Tryptophan Arginine Lysine Histidine Phenylalanine Methionine Threonine Valine Isoleucine Leucine Non-Essential Carnitine Glutamine and Glutamic Acid Gama Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) Cysteine and Cystine Citrulline Taurine Tyrosine Asparagine and Aspartic acid Glycine Proline Alanine and b-alanine Ornithine Serine

15 L-Glutamine the Truth! Glutamine is part of protein. One of the major amino acids. A necessary amino for blood sugar control, sugar cravings, and intestinal gut healing. Helps boost glutathione. Helps with muscle wasting (side effect of chemotherapy). Helpful in bone marrow transplants. 20+ studies showing it DOES NOT promote tumor growth, actually beneficial (5 studies saying same thing just released this year). Don t believe everything you read unless it is scientifically backed up. All things in moderation. Safe up to 10 g a day. 5 g if concerned. Always check with your primary care physician if concerned.
