        abstract = {Proteins are vital nutrients that are supportive of building and repairing tissues, growth, and overall health. Proteins are critical nutrients at a time of rapid growth, both physically and mentally, namely, during adolescence. This study was conducted among a cohort of girls who were attending college. The study aimed to assess their knowledge, attitudes, and practices related to protein. The primary approach was to have a short educational session that described the role of protein, sources of protein, and protein requirements in an uncomplicated and relevant manner. Many participants demonstrated limited awareness, as well as some limited misconceptions, before the intervention. Participants demonstrated a noticeable change in both their knowledge and attitude toward protein intake post-intervention. Overall the study demonstrates that even a single, carefully designed educational intervention can help young people to be better informed and make better decisions related to their food choices and nutritional value.},
