Protein Packs A Punch

If you want your child’s muscles and other body parts to be in tip-top shape, feed him protein, the body’s building block. This nutrient also repairs, replaces and makes tissues as well as ensures optimum growth.

And that’s not all that protein provides. Protein is made of amino acids, and your body needs 22 amino acids. Of these, 14 can be made internally, but the remaining 8 can only come from foods (these are called essential amino acids).

The best way to meet your child’s protein requirement is from both animal (eg fish, poultry, meat and eggs) and plant sources, especially legumes (beans, peas and lentils). For a vegetarian meal, you can get protein by dishing up a delicious dhal curry or stirfrying peas.

You can also offer protein-powered snacks and desserts eg tau fu fah, red bean porridge or a refreshing soya milk drink. And if you’re looking for protein-packed meals, try these recipes!
