Why we need protein

Proteins are an important part of your bones, muscles and skin. Proteins are in every living cell in our bodies.
Protein performs many functions:- Helping to break down food for energy.
                                                    Building structures
                                                    Breaking down toxins
Proteins are made up of building blocks called amino acids. The Human body can break down amino acids but not others.
Proteins we get from meat and other animal product (complete protein) contain all the amino acids we need.
Protein from plant products are incomplete protein, you would need to eat a variety of plant products to get a complete protein:- peanut butter and bread
                               rice and beans
Your body needs protein when it wakes in the morning, The body has used up the protein from the previous day helping our bodies break down food for energy, breaking down toxins, even while we are asleep.
You can get it another way via supplements,a simple shake in the morning which is how I get my protein every day.
