80 percent of human body is composed of water and protein. It is 20 kinds of amino acids that constitute the protein. Our brains, organs, muscles, and nerve transmitter substances are produced depending on combinations of amino acids. 9 kinds among 20 kinds of indispensable amino acids are not produced into body, so they are called “essential amino acids” because they need to be taken from daily diets. Amino acids are contained in protein of meats, fishes, and eggs, but the types and amounts differ from each other.
