Guest guest Posted April 7, 2002 Report Share Posted April 7, 2002 Hi Sharon, If you will look at previous posts, I've mentioned the importance of amino acids. If there is a deficiency in amino acids, there may be problems with emotions. We don't need alot of protein to be healthy, in fact alot of protein is damaging to the body. I don't know if I've helped at all. I hope I have. Marlene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is a deficiency in amino acids, there may be problems with emotions. We don't need alot of protein to be healthy, in fact alot of protein is damaging to the body. I<< I will go check out those posts now. One thing that made me wonder, though is that one of the women whom I've seen have emotional problems does eat meat....but when she goes light on it or maybe skips the meat and just has cheese, I've seen her have problems... I thought that meat and dairy have high amounts of all of the essential amino acids (aka complete protein) so this made it appear that a higher quantity of protein was needed. I guess the test would be for me to eat less protein, but a bigger variety of vegetable protein sources and see what happens.

I still eat alittle meat, but mostly beans and beans don't even have all the amino acids we need. I grew up on a farm and have not been able to stay away from meat yet and am not sure I want to. I do love the way raw food makes me feel. I believe there are liquid amino acids available and I wonder how many of the amino acids are in that product?
