  • Water and Protein: The Most Abundant Organic Compounds in the Human Body
    The most abundant organic compound in the human body is water.

    While water is often thought of as inorganic, it is technically an organic compound as it contains hydrogen. It makes up approximately 55-78% of the human body by weight.

    If you're looking for the most abundant organic compound *other than water*, that would be protein. Proteins make up about 15-20% of the body's mass and play a crucial role in many bodily functions.
