protein
Basic structure of amino acid
Central carbon, amino group, acid group
Sodium
Major cation in the extracellular fluid, most abundant solute.
HF
hydrofluoric acid
trans fat (snacks, bakery)
saturated fats (animal)
cholesterol (eggs, seafood, meat)
Bad Fats
methyl
a hydrocarbon containing one positive charge
Amino acids
Building blocks for protein
135-145mEg/L
Sodium serum level
HCl
hydrochloric acid
concentrated source of energy (9 calories per gram)
carry essential fatty acids, fat-soluble vitamins, and healthy phytochemicals
gives cell membrane flexibility and integrity, regulates transfer of nutrients
saturated and trans fat raise blood cholesterol levels more than other fats

What is a complete protein or high quality protein?
Stimulate the renal tubules to conserve water and sodium when the body's sodium level is low, thus helping to normalize extracellular fluid sodium levels
