Protein Quotations

I love making smoothies post-workout. My favorite - depending on the day - is either a chocolate whey protein shake with banana and peanut butter, or one with vanilla and berries.

I start off my morning with an Acai berry smoothie. I blend the Acai berries with kefir, blueberries, protein powder and peanut butter. I like this first thing in the morning because it's light on my stomach.

My best nutrition tip is to eat things you like that are low in calories and fat. Some of my favorites are chicken, rice, assorted veggies, egg white omelets, turkey sandwiches and protein shakes.

Alzheimer's disease starts when a protein that should be folded up properly misfolds into a kind of demented origami.

That the primary effect of gene mutation may be as simple as the substitution of a single amino acid by another and may lead to profound secondary changes in protein structure and properties has recently been strongly indicated by the work of Ingram on hemoglobin.

For 'The Rise of Cobra,' I was dieting more and using protein powder to help supplement my meals. For 'Retaliation,' however, I opted for more natural protein. I had a chicken breast and broccoli meal about five times every day. I also drank plenty of water and made sure I got enough rest.

I try to get to the gym whenever I can, eat healthy, mostly protein and vegetables, avoid processed sugar and minimize carbs, but I don't feel like I need to go crazy if I want pasta now and then.

I have always been interested - indeed, waylaid - by the leading edges of technology, even during my Ph.D. years when I pioneered (but did not publish) agarose gel electrophoresis for RNA fractionation. Also, much later, I was instrumental in showing that Green Fluorescent Protein and RNAi could be made to work in mammalian cells.

Since I'm a vegetarian, I try to focus on getting my protein and iron needs met.

My interest in protein breakdown as a research problem began in l955 at about the time I joined the Biochemistry Department of Yale University. It was known that proteins break down intracellularly in the mature animal.

Fifty percent of the weight of the soybean is protein. And what a protein! No other protein that we've known comes so nearly to the basic protein of animals and humans as soybean protein.

Eating-wise, I'm fairly disciplined. I have to be, because if you're not eating correctly, you're not giving your body the fuel it needs. So, I stay away from carbs after the morning, and I eat a lot of protein - fish, chicken, and no red meat.

I am a dichotomy of tastes. I'm big on water, and I do a protein drink in the morning, but then I eat off the kids' menu after that. So, there's only like six foods I like. I like quesadillas. I like hamburgers. I like sushi. I like pizza, PB&J, or breakfast any time of the day.

I train in the mornings, and I'll eat two breakfasts. I'll have waffles with flax seed and almond butter and one egg scrambled. Then I'll work out and have a second breakfast - another egg or a protein shake. Within a half-hour to 40 minutes after a workout, that's when you want to load up on protein.

I do cook a lot for myself. I tend to cook from scratch, a lot of stews and things, lots of beans, because beans have got lots of protein in them but not fat. I am partial to a bit of cheese - I try to limit myself in my cheese intake, but I do enjoy a good smelly cheese. Stinking Bishop is a good one.

I keep my diet low in carbohydrates and high in protein.

For breakfast, I make an amazing protein shake with fruit, Greek yogurt, protein powder, flaxseed oil and honey. It's a nice way to get a healthy start and a little bit of sweetness, too.

And of course, identifying all human genes and proteins will have great medical significance.

I eat five to seven meals a day and a couple of protein shakes.

As can be seen even by this limited number of examples proteins carry out amazingly diverse functions.

I never thought I'd be an expert at sword fighting, I never thought I'd be an expert in protein powders - I'm close to being an expert in both. It's great!

I still believe that a plant-based diet has tremendous health benefits, but I have incorporated more animal protein into my diet. I found that my body personally got to a point where I needed something more.

Synchrotron light has revolutionized the field of protein crystallography. It has made it possible to look at much larger structures with much smaller crystals.

I eat mostly organic, but I love macaroni and cheese, Mexican food, and egg-and-cheese croissants. So when I indulge, I eat protein and veggies for the rest of the day. It really is all about moderation and balance.

Moreover the incorporation requires the same components needed for protein synthesis, and is inhibited by the same inhibitors. Thus the system is most unlikely to be a complete artefact and is very probably closely related to genuine protein synthesis.

Buffalo rib-eye steaks, on the grill, is my favorite meal, seriously. It has less fat, more vitamins and more protein than beef. It is wonderful. Look, it was what the Indians ate, and they were very healthy. It's very good meat.

Food is the essential thing to gaining weight. Protein, you know, that's basically it - protein.

You don't want to keep giving yourself a sugar spike and then crash and get exhausted and need coffee because you shoot for a long time. On set, I eat a lot of peanut butter and apples, things that have actual energy and protein in them to keep me going.

The development of methods to monitor protein dynamics in cells together with the discovery of specific and general lysosomal inhibitors have resulted in the identification of different classes of cellular proteins, long- and short-lived, and the findings of the differential effects of the inhibitors on these groups.

I got quite good results from protein plates.

Protein was the most valued ingredient 250 years ago: It was the rarest thing. Now the rarest thing we have is time: time to cook and time to eat.

I never drink cow's milk; I always opt for the soya alternative, and when I eat most dairy products, it tends to be in extremely small doses. However, being a vegetarian means I have to get protein from somewhere, so I do eat eggs and cheese about once a week.

For a slim, sexy body, it's important to eat protein every day - preferably at every meal. Be sure to ask about the origins of your meat, poultry and seafood. If you can't afford organic, free-range meats, opt for natural poultry, pork, and beef that's raised without antibiotics or hormones.

I try to eat vegetarian, though I'm not very good at it, and it's a work in progress. But we basically are what we eat. Eat fat, and there's fat in your body. Eat protein, and there's protein in your body. Eat magic, and there's magic in your body.

The problem of different sensitivities of distinct protein groups to lysosomal inhibitors has remained unsolved and may have served as an important trigger in the future quest for a non-lysosomal proteolytic system that may be involved in at least certain aspects of intracellular protein degradation.

I'm a big breakfast person: Eggs, bacon and yogurt is my go-to meal before a round. On the course, peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwiches are great for energy, but a protein bar works, too.

I drink a lot of protein shakes and do a lot of weight lifting.

Protein bars, protein flapjacks, protein granola, protein ice cream and protein coconut water... To look at the health-food aisles, you'd think that protein was a substance no one could overeat. Even bread now comes in protein-enriched form.

Part of my daily regime is my glucosamine and, of course, a multitude of multivitamins. Branched-chain amino acids, glutamine, of course protein. I have one protein shake a day, and that is immediately after my training.

Protein, we keep being told, is the vital nutrient that will give us a boost. It will burn fat, build muscle, reduce tiredness and kill our hunger pangs. Maybe if we shake enough protein powder into our daily smoothie, we will actually morph into Gwyneth Paltrow.

I only eat fish - no chicken, no turkey, just fish. I get all my protein from fish and egg whites.

In many biological structures proteins are simply components of larger molecular machines.

The gastric laboratory uses its protein ferment under an acid reaction.

Fish oil is a great protein for your hair.

I like to eat Wheaties Fuel for breakfast with fresh fruit and egg whites. For lunch, I like to eat my wife's 'homerun chicken,' which is chicken, rice and vegetables, and for dinner I eat grilled steak or a couple of chicken breasts with rice and vegetables. During the day, I drink OhYeah! protein shakes as a snack.

The group who really could benefit from more protein is not fit young gym-goers but older people, who seem to be at much greater risk of protein deficiency.

Skin is made in large measure of a protein called collagen.

Sugar leaves you stranded; I make sure I have the proper amount of protein before I work out.

Being an athlete, you try to get protein.

At the end of the 1970s, I was a young researcher at the Weizmann Institute with an ambitious plan to shed light on one of the major outstanding questions concerning living cells: the process of protein biosynthesis.

In terms of personal choices, let's all think more carefully about where we get our protein from.

We're so conditioned to believe that milk does a body good and that we need enormous amounts of protein or we'll wither away. Look around, we're not withering - we're fat.

After a training camp workout, my body is eager to replace nutrients and energy that are lost during the workout. It's best to have a quick bite about 30 minutes after practice. I like to have yogurt and granola, the combination of carbs and protein helps me recover after a long and tiring workout.

I need protein from food rather than just protein supplements. I changed my diet.

Sleep is huge. That's your biggest way of recovering. In baseball, it's such a hard sleep schedule during the season, but you try to do the best you can. Because you can take all the protein drinks, you can do all these things, but your recovery is your sleep.

I don't really want to be fat, so I stop before I am. I'm not a vegetarian, but I might go through a phase when I'm not interested in eating protein for a week or so, and then I might go through a phase when I eat nothing but steak.

Protein has been intensely over-represented on the plate. Now, the garden should be the main drag for main courses.

Iraq has the most extensive petrochemical industry in the Middle East and a wealth of vaccine factories, single-cell protein research labs, medical and veterinary manufacturing centers and water treatment plants.

Until 1985, when my lab found the protein they are made of, aquaporins hadn't yet been identified. There had been a controversy in biology for more than 100 years about how water moved through cells.

When we consume vastly more protein than we need, our kidneys struggle to process it, resulting in protein in the urine. Too much protein from meat may also contribute to kidney stones.

We were at the Argonne Lab in Chicago on Monday collecting data, and by Thursday we were able to deposit two solved protein structures in the Protein Data Bank.

There are few limits as to what we could build these sensors to detect, whether it is a molecule wafting off an explosive device or the protein byproduct of a cancerous growth,

The protein market is growing rapidly and may reach $200 billion in 15 to 20 years, and we believe that PER.C6 has the potential to become the technology of choice for an attractive part of that market.

There are true risks when ... enough peanut protein is really being disturbed. So if people are cracking open peanuts, especially in a confined space, a waiting area of a restaurant, you could have a very severe reaction because there's enough peanut airborne there.

Like a detective, Melinda traced this fibril-forming property down to a little peptide. Nobody expected that 1 percent of the protein could have the essence of the whole protein and could form fibrils on its own; I certainly didn't expect that. There were only seven amino acids in that fragment. Rebecca later found the peptide could be cut to only four amino acids and form fibrils.

On a normal day, I crawl out of bed before 8 A.M., have a protein shake, chuck my gym kit on, and go for a class or personal-training session. When I'm back, I'll have poached eggs with salmon or spinach for breakfast before my stylists arrive to do my hair - which takes ages. I then go wherever I am needed.

One of the things you worry about is a supplement company that's a little bit shady, that for some reason has put something in a protein mix or something. That's unfortunate if that happens.

Odor is one of the major issues. The waste also has a higher nutrient level as blood is rich in protein and nitrogen and those nutrients have to be properly disposed of.

Moose meat is, like all protein in the food banking business, just like gold,

Nucleic acids are the main information-carrying molecules of the cell, and, by directing the process of protein synthesis, they determine the inherited characteristics of every living thing. The two main classes of nucleic acids are deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA).

Pork has a lot going for it: It cooks up quickly, it's a good source of protein and it's relatively low in calories.

If we have a protein sequence from bone, we can tell if the material is an original part of the organism that will provide interesting information about its past. We can know where it came from. Our goal is to use a variety of technologies new to paleontology to develop a deeper understanding of prehistoric life - and everyone dreams of embellishing our understanding of dinosaurs.

I don't drink any soda. None at all. Just water with lemon. If I need something different: iced tea. I don't have anything like protein shakes.

I am a vegetarian, and I sort of aspire to vegan-hood. So far I've noticed no difference at all in my climbing, but I feel a bit healthier overall. Though that's only because I'm eating more fruits and vegetables. I think the whole protein thing is overhyped. Most Americans eat far more than we need.

I have a pretty fast metabolism, so I don't really have to worry about getting pudgy. What I try to do when I'm working out is taking in a lot of heavy protein - clean chicken, clean meats.

I find that when you do yoga, you don't crave unhealthy food. But I try to always let myself eat whatever I want. I have dessert or chocolate every day, but I'll only have a few bites. I try to have a little bit of cereal in the morning, and then I always try to have protein for dinner, too. But I eat pasta and stuff like that.

Global protein sector challenges continued during the past quarter. High poultry inventories depressed retail poultry prices and contributed to declines in pork pricing in the US, although US pork industry volumes increased over last year. At the same time, extraordinarily high US live cattle costs in relation to finished box beef prices, combined with a continued lack of access to major Asian export markets, limited our beef operating results.

If that binding protein is still a bit elevated, you might have a decrease in libido that persists.

Today at the supermarket, one dozen large eggs can cost as little as $1. One egg contains the protein equivalent of 1 ounce of meat -- that's a great value for the money.

What we were able to do is compare the binding site of both the viral RNA and the cells' cap binding protein on a factor that is common to both mechanisms in eIF3. The binding cap is one of the complexes required by the cell, but not required by the virus. For translations, this cup binding protein has to interact with the eIF3.

I think it's impossible to maintain a good, strong, muscular physique without taking some supplements. Between the protein shakes and the multivitamins that I take, I use C4, the pre-workout mix. I try to keep it as basic as I can, but I think I would shrink and disappear if I stopped taking protein shakes.

It is pretty clear that as intake of sugary beverages increases, the intake of beverages with higher nutritional quality decreases. Replacing milk with sodas or fruit drinks means less protein needed for growth and healthy immune systems, less calcium for strong bones for the future, less potassium, less vitamin D and other nutrients needed for optimal health.

Our Board and management team are united in the belief that we must take bold action now to lead the emerging era of molecular medicine with leading positions in both genetic and protein analysis.

Well, I'm always hoping to hear from interested chemists and protein chemists, because I'd love for these experiments to be done properly.

We get really hung up on the details of diet. Like how much protein should I eat, how much of this should I eat. It's the clutter that blocks the basic message. Eat smaller portions. Eat in moderation.

Water remains the best choice for hydration. Low-fat milk will also give you a great protein source, or you can mix seltzer water with juice. As some juices are high in calories and sugars, try to drink in moderation or mix half water and half juice for a water juice combination. Soda and iced tea should be drunk in moderation because they usually come with lots of sugar and caffeine.

We are satisfied that IBP's accounting issues have been resolved, and have every confidence in (IBP's) management team, ... We look forward to their contribution as we work together to run the world's premier protein provider.

This sponsorship is an outgrowth of a very successful partnership in 2004. Tyson's message of power through protein resonates with our athletes and together we will educate as many Americans as possible about the importance of physical activity and sound nutrition. Our initiative will be designed to have a major impact on improving the health of today's youth through the solid foundation of basic conditioning.

We would like to be able to say for certain that we killed the right lion, but unfortunately all we can say is that these protein tests neither confirm, nor disprove that this is the lion that was involved in the attack.

I find that the people who don't eat as much candy are really into heavy protein, like steak. I don't eat that.

We have found that fusions of GFP with the RING finger domains of certain E3 ubiquitin ligases creates an unstable GFP. We have used unstable GFP to learn how disruption of microtubules in the touch receptor neurons causes a generalized reduction in protein levels in the cells.

Whenever I meet with nutritionists, we discuss the idea of having everything in moderation and that people should eat protein or fiber when they eat sugar.

We knew there were always wheat and dairy derivatives in there, but they were not the protein component.

We knew that all the protein-coding bits of genes do is to produce protein - they have to have instructions to turn them on and off. Those sequences lie well outside the protein-coding sequences, sometimes thousands, tens of thousands of bases away.

The participants found it easiest to incorporate single items such as the almonds and margarine into their daily lives. The fiber and vegetable protein were more challenging since they require more planning and preparation and because these types of niche products are less available. It's just easier, for example, to buy a beef burger instead of one made from soy, although the range of options is improving. We considered it ideal if the participants were able to follow the diet three-quarters of the time.

We are excited to be part of this powerful sport that hinges on high-energy performances. Protein, as part of a meal, increases power and strength. This partnership allows us to communicate the importance of protein and nutrition to millions of Americans in a powerful way.

We are excited to be part of this outstanding group of athletes who understand that the energy that comes from a protein-rich, well-balanced diet enables them to perform their best. Protein, as part of a meal, increases power and strength. This partnership allows us to communicate the importance of protein and nutrition to millions of Americans in an exciting way.

Turkey cutlets are lower in fat than chicken, and the leanest high protein food to eat,

Theoretically, with this antifreeze protein we might be able to store an organ at 21 degrees Fahrenheit. Hopefully, it would be able to last longer so that you would have longer to do tissue matching to get the organ to the patient and just increase the shelf life of organs.

What I would far rather see is for someone to eat a sandwich and a piece of fruit, instead of that PowerBar. It's still something you can hold in your hand, but you're getting the whole grain from the bread, protein from the sandwich contents -- whether that's meat or cheese or fish -- and fiber from the whole grain and from the fruit.
