Abstract:
Dr. Benjamin Ershoff and Dr. Samuel Wildman, both research biologists at the University of California at Los Angeles, have recently discovered the tobacco leaf contains the protein fraction-1. Fraction-1 contains all of the essential amino acids and can be used to supplement low-protein diets and help to meet nutritional requirements of patients suffering gastro-intestinal disorders. The protein yield from an acre of tobacco is four times that of a soybean field, and tobacco protein has no odor or taste.\r\n
