Amino acid ndizomwe amapanga mapuloteni. Mapuloteni , nawonso, ndi ofunikira kuzinthu zambiri zomwe zimagwira ntchito mthupi lathu.
Matupi athu amafuna ma 20 amino acid osiyanasiyana kuti akwaniritse zonse zomwe akufuna kuti tizichita. Pamodzi, izi amino acid zimasindikizidwa ndikuphatikizidwa kuti ziphatikizidwe m'njira zopanda malire. Mapuloteniwa amagwiritsidwa ntchito kumanga minofu, mafupa, tsitsi, ndi misomali, koma ndicho chiyambi chabe.
Mavitamini a amino amapangira tizilombo toyambitsa matenda m'thupi lathu. Amanyamula zakudya ndi mamolekyu ena oyenerera kudzera m'magazi athu ndi kudutsa maselo. Amanyamula zizindikiro kuchokera kumbali imodzi ya thupi kupita kumalo ena. Mankhwala omwe amatiteteza ku matenda ndi mapuloteni. Ntchito ya mapuloteni ndi ochuluka kwambiri.
Pa ma 20 amino acid omwe timafunikira, matupi athu akhoza kupanga 11 mwa iwo. Yina 9 tikuyenera kudyetsa zakudya zathu - zimatchedwa amino acid zofunika chifukwa ndizofunika kuti tizidya. Ndalama zomwe timafunikira pa amino acid onse ndizosiyana-mwachitsanzo, malinga ndi mfundo za World Health Organization, munthu amene akulemera makilogalamu 70. (154 lbs.) Amafunika 280 mg wa tryptophan tsiku lililonse, koma 2100 mg ya lysine ndi 2730 mg la lekine.
Zimanenedwa kuti dzira lili ndi pafupifupi maselo ofunika amino omwe timafunikira, komanso mapuloteni ambiri a nyama (nyama, nsomba, mkaka, etc.) ali ndi kuchuluka kwa zonsezi.
Mitengo ya amino acid imaphatikizapo nyemba, mbewu, mtedza, ndi mbewu, koma aliyense mwa iwo yekha alibe "malire" a amino acid onse (kuphatikizapo zotchedwa quinoa ndi amaranth ). Choncho, anthu omwe amadalira zakudya za mapuloteni amatha kuonetsetsa kuti kudya zakudya zosiyanasiyana monga nyemba ndi mpunga, ndizosakaniza zokhazokha zomwe zili ndi amino acid.
Zofunikira zofunika amino acid ndi: histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, ndi valine.
Mafuta ena amino omwe timafunikira (matupi athu angathe kupanga) ndi: alanine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cysteine, glutamic acid, glutamine, glycine, proline, serine, ndi tyrosine.
* Palinso vuto pamene amino acid kapena zakudya zina zimakhala "zofunika kwambiri", pamene thupi lingakhale lovuta kupanga ilo chifukwa cha matenda, matenda, kapena kukalamba.
