Amino Acids are nutrients that make up proteins. When you eat or take protein your body breaks it down into amino acids, which are then absorbed. Amino Acid supplements are so important because taking them at crucial times will help you to recover and grow muscle.
Amino Acids contribute significantly to the health of the nervous system, muscular structure, hormone production, vital organs and cellular structure.
The Amino Acids are classified into two groups: Essential and Non-Essential. • Essential Amino Acids (EAA) are the Amino Acids that our body can not produce and must come from our meals and/or supplements. Failure to ingest enough of even 1 of the 8 EAA results in degradation of the body's proteins (muscle) to obtain the one amino acid that is needed. • Non-Essential Amino Acids are usually produced in our body from the EAA.
