Bio Science Free From Amino Acid Amino acids have always been essential for human life & health, as they are the building blocks of life for the human body. Their role in promoting growth & healing, creating digestive enzymes, producing hormones which support reproduction & providing energy makes amino acid supplementation critically important for healthy living.A recent study suggests that amino acids were found to increase the life span by up to 12% or as much as 10 years, as seen in the Metro on 5th October. Ingredients: Each level teaspoon (4 grams) contains: L-Glutamic Acid 400mg, L-Glutamine 400mg, L-Arginine 368mg, L-Leucine 320mg, Glycine 236mg, L-Histidine 108mg, L-Isoleucine 240mg, L-Valine 240mg, L-Methionine 192mg, L-Phenylalanine 192mg, L-Serine 192mg, L-Threonine 160mg, L-Tyrosine 160mg, L-Alanine 96mg, L-Proline 80mg, L-Aspartic Acid 80mg, L-Lysine 75mg, L-Citrulline 64mg, L-Taurine 52mg, L-Cysteine 20mg Benefits: No metabolic pathway proceeds in isolation so using an amino acid to alter one will alter others which cross it. Usually this is a good thing, but sometimes it can cause something equivalent to a metabolic traffic jam. Patients may tire easily & even feel worse than before they started on the supplement. To avoid this possibility it is best to take a blend of amino acids rather than a single amino acid. Amino acids are pre-digested unlike protein, help with neurotransmitter & enzyme production & are helpful to those who have suffered long-term protein maldigestion.
