Amino Acids
Alanine
Alanine - is a non-essential amino acid that may play a role in supporting prostate health. As with other amino acids, it is required to build protein.
Arginine
Arginine - is a non-essential amino acid that assists in wound healing, removes excess ammonia in the body, stimulates immune function and promotes secretion of several hormones including glucagon, insulin and growth hormone. As with other amino acids, it is required to build protein.
Aspartic Acid
Aspartic Acid - Increases stamina and boosts energy. Beneficial for neuro disorders. Excellent for athletes, aids in cell function and the function of RNA and DNA which are the carriers of genetic information.
Carnatine
Carnatine - An amino acid that helps deliver fat to the mitochondria assisting energy production. Works synergistically with CoQ10.
Cystine (Cysteine)
Cystine (Cysteine) - Essential in the production of collagen , provides proper elasticity and permeability texture to ligaments, tendons and connective tissue.
Glutamic Acid
Glutamic Acid - Is an excitatory neurotransmitter that increases the firing of neurons in the central nervous system. A major excitatory neuro transmitter in the brain and spinal cord. Aids in the transportation of potassium across the blood-brain barrier, metabolizes sugar and fat.
Glycine
Glycine - Essential for the repairing of and healing damaged tissue from joints, ligaments and tendons.
Histidine
Histidine - Essential in the growth and repair of tissues. Important for the maintenance of the Myelin sheet that protects the nerve cells, needed for the production of both red and white cells.
Isoleucine
Isoleucine - An essential amino acid. Essential for hemoglobin formation. Stabilizes and regulates blood sugar and energy levels. Increases endurance and aids in the healing and repair of muscle tissue.
Lysine
Lysine - An essential amino acid. Essential in collagen formation. Aids in tissue and connective repair from joint, ligaments and tendons. Because it helps to build muscle protein, it is good for those recovering from surgery and sports injury. It also lowers serum triglyceride levels.
Leucine
Leucine - An essential amino acid. Protects muscles and acts as a fuel. Promotes the healing of bones, skin and muscle tissues, recommended for those recovering from injury and/or surgery. Aids in increasing growth hormone production.
Methionine
Methionine - An essential amino acid. Protects muscles and acts as a fuel. Promotes the healing of bones, skin and muscle tissues, recommended for those recovering from injury and/or surgery. Aids in increasing growth hormone production.
Phenylalanine
Phenylalanine - An essential amino acid. Used to synthesize two key neurotransmitters that promote alertness. Helps elevate mood and may decrease pain.
Proline
Proline - Important in preventing collagen loss. It also helps the healing of cartilage and strengthening of joints, tendons, and heart muscle.
Serine
Serine - Essential for proper metabolism of fat and fatty acids, the growth of muscle, and the maintenance of healthy immune system. Aids in the production of immunoglobins and antibodies.
Threonine
Threonine - An essential amino acid. Essential in the formation of collagen and elastin. Aids in the liver and lipotropic functions. Essential in central nervous system and skeletal muscles. Helps prevent fatty buildup in the liver. Enhances immune system by aiding in the production of antibodies.
Tryptophan
Tryptophan - An essential amino acid. A safe, natural, nonprescription to support better mood. May help relieve anxiety and depressive feelings, and may support the body's ability to control hyperactivity. Necessary for the production of vitamin B3 used by the brain to produce Serotonin a necessary neurotransmitter that transfers all responses from one cell to another; stabilizes mood and hyperactivity. Alleviates stress and sport-related stress.
Tyrosine
Tyrosine - Regulates mood swings, acts as a mood elevator. Aids in the function of adrenal, thyroid, and pituitary glands.
Valine
Valine - An essential amino acid. Needed for muscle metabolism and tissue repair and the maintenance of proper nitrogen balance in the body. Can be used as an energy source for muscle tissue.
