        INSOLUBLE
  - - - ANABOLIC REACTION
        
        are reactions Where large molecules are built from small molecules that require energy
      - CANABOLIC REACTION
        
        Are reactions that split large molecules into smaller ones. This reaction release energy. They are called hydrolysis reaction because it requires water
      - A chemical process in living systems that transforms molecules to make them more hcemically stable, permeable, polar, and less toxic
  - - - They are soluble and found in cells, enzymes, body fluids, and hemoglobin
    - - Proteins are insoluble
        
        Collagen
        
        found in connective tissues

        ESSENTIAL
        
        Are needed for our diet
        
        NON ESSENTIAL
        
        Made in the body, not needed for diet
        
        DEAMINATION
        
        Excess Amino Acids are broken down in the liver to produce UREA
        
        UREA is a waste product and excreted through urine
- - - - Good for bone and teeth health, muscle function, and nerve signaling
      - A lack of calcium results in the deficiency of osteoperosis, rickets, or muscle cramps
    - - deficiency can lead to anemia, causing symptoms like fatigue, weakness, shortness of breath, and pale skin
      - carries oxygen from your lungs to the rest of your body. Supports muscle function, bone marrow health, and the production of certain hormones
    - - regulate metabolism, growth, and develoopment, and brain development
      - Deficiency can lead to goiter, hypothydroidism, and developmental issues in children
    - - Is essential for maintaining fluid balance, nerve function, and muscle contractions in your body
      - Deficiency can cause symptoms like headache, nausea, fatigue, and muscle cramps
  - - - VITAMIN C
        
        Vitamin C is essential for a healthy immune system and helps with iron absorption
        
        A deficiency in vitamin C can lead to scurvy and weakened immunity
      - VITAMIN GROUP B
        
        A deficiency in vitamin B can lead to fatigue, weakness, and nerve problems
        
        Vitamin B is important for energy production and overall health
      - They are not stored. Therefore, foods that are good sources of these vitamins must be consumed regularly
      - Food that are good sources of these vitamins must be consumed regularly
    - - VITAMIN E
        
        Important as antidoxant, protecting cells from damage
        
        deficiency is rare but can lead to nerve and muscle damage
      - VITAMIN D
        
        Helps absorb calcium, which is crucial for strong bones and health
        
        Without vitamin D our bones can become weak and brittle, leading to condition like rickets in children and osteomalacia in adults
      - VITAMIN K
