Proteins are the building blocks of human life, essential for normal growth. Protein is 90 percent of the dry weight of blood, 80 percent of muscles, and 70 percent of the skin. Proteins provide the building blocks for connective tissue and are the primary constituents of enzymes, hormones and antibodies. They encompass many important chemicals including immunoglobulins and enzymes. In short, protein is the basic stuff of muscles, skin, bones, hair, heart, teeth, blood, brains, skin and the zillion biochemical activities going on in our bodies every minute.
When we fail to consume adequate amounts of protein, the blood and tissues can become either too acidic or too alkaline. Lack of dietary protein can retard growth in children, and in adults can be a contributing factor in chronic fatigue, depression, slow wound healing, and decreased resistance to infection.
Proteins contain approximately 22 amino acids, eight of which are essential because the body cannot produce them. Therefore, they must be obtained from our food. The sulfur-containing amino acids: methionine, cystine and cysteine, are particularly important for the health of the brain and nervous system. The amino acid cysteine, which is the one most severely damaged by processing, is possibly the most important anti-catabolic amino acid. There is clinical evidence that supplementing the diet with bioavailable cystine and other amino acids contained in specially processed milk proteins can help build blood quality and even detoxify harmful chemicals. Studies have shown as little as 20mg of bioavailable cysteine per day produces dramatic results in individuals using resistance training. One daily serving of GOATEIN™ provides over 45mg of Cysteine.
A little more about Goatein:
Goatein® is an animal protein. Animal proteins are the only complete sources of protein. Vegetarian protein sources such as soy are typically missing one or more of the essential amino acids, even if their protein content is high.
Goatein contains pure goat's milk from goats raised without antibiotics or growth hormones. Many commercial dairy protein powders are produced from animals given antibiotics and hormones. Many vegetable proteins are made from non-organic or genetically modified organisms and may contain chemical residues.
Goatein is processed without excessive heat so all its elements remain in their natural forms. Other milk protein powders that claim to be minimally processed are in fact subject to invasive processing, including heating and drying at high temperatures.
