Proteins have different functions, and work in different areas of the body. There are basically two types of Protein ? complete and incomplete protein




1. Complete Protein – provides the proper balance of eight necessary amino acids that
build tissues,


found in foods of animal organ such as meats, poultry, seafood,
eggs, milk and cheese 


2. Incomplete Protein – lacks certain essential amino acids and is not used efficiently when eaten alone. However, when it is combined with small amounts of animal source proteins, it becomes complete.


It is found in seeds, nuts, peas, grains and bean


Note: Mixing complete and incomplete proteins can give you better nutritional value than either one alone
