The building blocks of protein

Nine pieces of the picture.

│ Adult reference

Each row compares the recorded amount with the adult pattern for this much protein. The line means the pattern is met, not 100% absorbed.

Amino acidBalance against the referenceAmount
Histidine144%71 mg
Isoleucine123%114 mg
Leucine111%208 mg
Lysinelowest ratio57%85 mg
Methionine + cystine168%119 mg
Phenylalanine + tyrosine186%235 mg
Threonine116%89 mg
Tryptophan236%48 mg
Valine113%139 mg

Bars share a 0–250% scale; arrows mark values beyond it. Sulfur and aromatic amino acids are scored together. See the method and reference.

Optional balance estimate1.8 g

Protein supported by amino-acid balance — estimated. This is capped at total protein. It is not absorbed protein, and any difference is not wasted protein.
