Google, Dell, Intel, Apple and slew of other Hi-Tech Companies have teamed up to make one the largest Super-Computers in the world. Mission, to get the inside look at how our body assembles proteins. Folding as it called, is crucial to our health, as proteins are the building blocks of new cells. When proteins do not fold correctly (misfold), there can be serious consequences, including many well known diseases.
Disruption of native (natural) state such as cooking and freezing causes them to denature. High concentration of solutes, extremes of ph (diabetes), mechanical forces(over processing) and of course chemicals lead to pour structures. With all this garbage that we can consume, it's lucky that we survive at all, but wait, in many cases denaturing is reversible. Enter an enzyme called chaperones, these good guys inside of us help straighten out some of the mess. By ferrying harmful material they assist lysosomes to locate, digest and destroy damaged proteins. Sometimes however, they can be overwhelmed by things like insoluable amorphous aggregates(angry-gates) which can cause severe diseases.
Studies show the smaller more efficient smaller proteins are more likely to fold into healthy transporters of enzymes and other molecules. Protease(bee pollen) a special kind of enzyme is believed to split proteins making it much easier for the body digest all this stuff.
Without some help, misbehaving, heat-shocked or even incomplete proteins can pile up clogging our passage ways much in the same way junk can accumulate when allowed. The perfect protein is the exception rather the rule, because all 22 amino acids are necessary to be complete. Anything less than the(22) does not get the job done. Vegans are especially limited to very few choices, Mother Soy being about the best, since it is processed as little as possible, without excessive heat resulting in being very close to RAW. Absolutely no chemicals or additives are used. Hemp is a complete protein as well, but it has too many of the 6 omegas to be a top choice.
Science continues to press on to find the truth about how we work inside. Our diet is most likely the number one ingredient for our ultimate health. Without food energy from our diet, we really have nothing draw from and our bodies will die. Every day we make choices, starting with breakfast, about how we affect our own health and that of our loved ones. Healthy smoothies are a great way to save time & money! Better to have peace talks than a war to start your day! Let's hope that Apple doesn't start selling Big Macs thru the email!
