coming back to the question , i posted mainly about eating complete proteins with incomplete proteins ... it would be safe to say that if i ate 200 grams of pasta which contains 16 grams of protein with 50 grams of cheese , i would only get the true protein in the cheese ..... with the pasta i would still AA from the protein inside , possibly get an extra boost of A and B amino acids the non essential amino acids would be used for something esle or kept for later use possibly . since the body can synthesise the other 13 AA's needed for development without eating the specific foods.
however , if i were to eat the pasta with beans then i would get a complete protein per say but the amount of protein would depend on the ratio of the 8 AA's
and well i guess well that was my question , what classifies as complete protein? , what is the ratio? is there a ratio?
obviously it is not euqal amounts of isoleucine ,lleucine , lysine , methionine , phenylalanine , threonine, tryptophan and valine
though maybe it is close to equal amounts .. or does it all just sit in a "storage pool" all the AA's mixed up and waiting to be used so whatever you eat just kind of breaks down and enters the "pool" which in turn looks to synthesise every x amount of time or something..
eitherway , it would be interesting to find out , and yes i have been "googling" now and then for all the times u mentioned this. though this question is a bit specific and was not quite sure on how to word the question ....
again going back to examples i used before ..lets say that the 8 essential amino acids are broken up into A B C D , with 2 AA's in each ... now if i eat beans which has 20 grams of protein from A+B and eat the rice which has 10 grams from C+D and these 4 make up the total amount needed . then i would assume from what i have read that the AA ratio would or should be enough to make 40 grams in total of complete protein , with a slighty un even amount of the 8 AA's.
or would it ? does there have to be a certain ratio for protein to be considered a complete?
found this interesting article on AA's
I've heard that in order to reap the benefits of complementary proteins, I need to eat them at the same meal. Is this true?
No, it used to be believed that for two incomplete plant proteins to complement each other and give the body all the essential amino acids, they had to be eaten at the same meal. Being a vegetarian seemed complicated, even risky. Now we know that this is not only nutritionally incorrect, it is an insult to the wisdom of the body. When you eat a protein, your body disassembles it into amino acids and then reassembles these amino acids into the types of proteins needed by different cells. New studies show that incomplete proteins (plant proteins) eaten as much as 24 hours apart, combine in the body to provide all the essential amino acids. So, you could eat grains at breakfast and legumes at dinner, and the body will still be able to mix them all together and make what it needs. As long as you eat a variety of protein foods from a variety of sources, you don't have to constantly worry whether they are "complete" or "incomplete" proteins. Your body will do the thinking for you.
just eating good and getting complete proteins in sometime during the day is fine enough ,but i was interested in complete / incomplete proteins and mixing , no site ever mentions anything about how much or what to mix , it just says that "mixing" is fine .. for those of us that exercise , ok so maybe we do not count every gram we take in but i am sure we have a rough guess from day to day , it seemed that these sites did not mention much more than the types of food to mix.
