The building blocks of protein
│ Adult referenceNine pieces of the picture.
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 acid | Balance against the reference | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Histidine | 149% | 547 mg |
| Isoleucine | 176% | 1,206 mg |
| Leucine | 139% | 1,939 mg |
| Lysinelowest ratio | 93% | 1,025 mg |
| Methionine + cystine | 127% | 670 mg |
| Phenylalanine + tyrosine | 233% | 2,182 mg |
| Threonine | 183% | 1,044 mg |
| Tryptophan | 362% ↗ | 547 mg |
| Valine | 153% | 1,404 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 estimate21.4 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.
