core核心畫面

Picture the building material on your plate — the egg, the fish, the beans. Your body pulls it apart and uses the pieces to build and repair muscle, skin and hair. Unlike fat or sugar, this is the stuff the body builds WITH, not just burns.

可以想成：盤子裡的「建材」——蛋、魚、豆子。身體把它拆開，再拿那些零件去蓋肌肉、修皮膚和頭髮。跟脂肪、糖那種主要拿來燒的能量不同，蛋白質是身體用來「蓋東西」的原料，所以運動、生長、生病復原的時候特別常被提到。
