If your body doesn\u2019t recover fully, you will be much more prone to injuries, health issues, and performance drops.

Protein quality<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Protein is made up of amino acids they are the real building blocks for the human body. There are 21 different amino acids and you need them in a correct ratio to make up the best protein. The best protein also needs to be easy to digest. Thankfully, both of these parameters can be measured in a lab so that we can reliably judge the quality of protein. There are two main categories of protein: animal based and plant based. Animal proteins are usually easy to digest and have a favourable amino acid profile. Plant based proteins are protected by cellulose which makes them harder to digest and usually don\u2019t contain the correct ratio of amino acids. This means that the human body will generally be able to utilize animal protein much better than plant protein.<\/p>\n
