The amount of protein required in a person's diet is determined in large part by overall energy intake, the body's need for nitrogen and essential amino acids, body weight, rate of growth in the individual, physical activity level, individual's energy and carbohydrate intake, as well as the presence of illness or injury. Physical activity and exertion as well as enhanced muscular mass increase the need for protein. Requirements are also greater during childhood for growth and development, during pregnancy or when breast-feeding in order to nourish a baby.
Quante proteine devono essere presenti in una dieta dipende in gran parte dal fabbisogno energetico e di aminoacidi essenziali, dal bilancio azotato, dal peso e dalla crescita corporea, dall’attività fisica, da quali altri nutrienti sono assunti e dalla presenza di un eventuale stato di malattia o di lesioni. Anche l’attività sportiva e il conseguente aumento di massa muscolare possono aumentare il fabbisogno proteico. La richiesta di proteine necessarie per la crescita e lo sviluppo è maggiore nei bambini, durante la gravidanza e l’allattamento del neonato.

Abstract
The amount of protein required in a person's diet is determined in large part by overall energy intake, the body's need for nitrogen and essential amino acids, body weight, rate of growth in the individual, physical activity level, individual's energy and carbohydrate intake, as well as the presence of illness or injury. Physical activity and exertion as well as enhanced muscular mass increase the need for protein. Requirements are also greater during childhood for growth and development, during pregnancy or when breast-feeding in order to nourish a baby.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
