Question number three.
00:06
What is the main use of amino acids in the body? amino acids, what are they? where are they from? what is their role in the body? our amino acids actually come from the foods that are, that serve as proteins to our nutritious, meals.
00:40
So what types of food service proteins? chicken, fish, lamb, beef, pork chops, so on and so forth.
00:54
So our amino acids come from proteins.
01:03
These proteins undergo the process of hydrolysis.
01:10
They are hydrolyzed to form their smaller, smaller components, which are amino acids.
01:29
Amino acids.
01:39
Now, the term hydrolysis or hydrolyze means it refers to hydrogen, where you are adding a hydrogen which breaks a bond.
01:57
It breaks a bond which causes the breaking up of these constituent components.
02:08
And these that make up proteins are our amino acids.
02:13
So this process here is hydrolysis, not hydration.
02:20
Hydration is when you are adding h2o.
02:25
That's water.
02:33
Hydrolysis.
02:38
Now, when you break up your proteins and it forms amino acids, what happens to these amino acids? it's important to note that amino acids can continue, given that you're taking them from proteins, you're breaking them down from proteins, you are basically going to use them up again into producing more proteins.
03:08
So the body to produce proteins, takes proteins in, breaks it down, and uses these individual amino acids, things like, like, what's a protein, adenine, denine, tripsin, so on and so forth.
03:31
I'm needing to revisit my list of, of, of, of, rather, amino acids, my list of 20 amino acids.
03:42
So, these amino acids are you.
03:47
Used to build proteins.
03:53
Used to build proteins.
04:19
All right.
04:21
I know it seems a bit redundant, but yes indeed, that is what their main purpose is...
