Protein is fundamental for body cell structure, and it is also extremely important for many body processes, such as acting as enzymes, production of hormones, transportation of nutrients, blood clotting, body fluid balance, acid-base balance, immune response (antibodies) to protect from virus infection, and eye vision. Proteins also provide calories ("energy") for the body.
