[edit] Protein quality

How do these sentences: Higher quality proteins have a higher Biological Value (BV) such as whey protein at 100 BV compared to soy protein at 74 BV.[4] A higher BV is more usable than a lower BV for essential protein necessary to meet nutritional human requirements and muscle growth.[4][5][6][7][8] have anything to do with this article? I've removed them until an adequate explanation is offered. Yankees76 17:20, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

This article is about complete protein. Explaining about protein quality adds to the article. --Firstocean 17:52, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

How does quoting a couple of random facts about BV and whey protein have anything to do with Complete proteins? Yankees76 18:21, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

This explains about complete proteins differ in protein value. The information is a detailed explanantion of the difference in complete protein. You believe they are facts. I will add it back to the article. You can add as you wish. --Firstocean 01:47, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

This is the text you added:

Proteins differ in there Biological Value.[4] Higher quality proteins have a higher Biological Value (BV) such as whey protein at 100 BV compared to soy protein at 74 BV.[4][5][6][7]

Please point out where in this text there is sourced material that connects complete proteins with anything written here? How does Biological value even relate to this? It's an outdated method of measuring protein quality. The article is on complete proteins - not protein quality when measured using the biological value method. Yankees76 05:00, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] First Sentence

Older versions of this page were more correct: a complete protein need not contain "all amino acids", but it must contain the essential amino acids. Steve P. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.231.128.198 (talk) 18:03, 5 March 2007 (UTC).
