National protein day is celebrated across India on February 27, each year, as well as in other nations.

Protein is made from 22+ basic building blocks called amino acids. Because we do not store amino acids, our bodies make them in 2 different ways: either from scratch, or by modifying others. Protein is found throughout the body—in muscle, bone, skin, hair, and virtually every other body part or tissue. It makes up the enzymes that power many chemical reactions and the hemoglobin that carries oxygen in your blood.

Good Protein Sources are seafood, white-meat poultry, milk, cheese, yogurt, eggs, beans, soy.
