Protein is a building block of all the body cells. When growing, many new cells are added to the body frame each day. At the same time there are many cells dying that need to be replaced. Protein provides energy to the body. A good source for protein is found in meat, fish, poultry, eggs, and beans. Milk, cheese, yogurt, peanuts, and ice cream are also a good source.
