Using complex Aminos may prove beneficial for those who do not get enough protein in their diet, especially individuals just starting a low protein or vegetarian diet. Amino acids are components of protein. Protein is also necessary in the formation of bones, red blood cells, and antibodies. Research also shows that amino acids may positively effect our body's response to depression, migraines, insomnia and lethargy. Mason's Daily AminoTablets come in a powerful strength of 2,800 mg.
What are Amino Acids ?
Amino Acids are considered the building blocks of protein, from the largest animal to the smallest microorganism, and are essential to our every day life. Aside from water, protein is the greatest portion of our body weight and helps to regulate our body's water balance and proper pH balance. The quality of protein in your diet depends on the particular amino acid contained in the protein.
- Improve building and repair of muscle tissue
- Enhance formation of bones, red blood cells, and antibodies
- May help the body with depression, migraines, insomnia, and lethargy
What types of amino acids are there? :
Amino acids are sold in single and concentration form. Single aminos that are popular with consumers include L-Lysine and L-Glutamic acid. Other combination formulas are popular with sports nutritionists for better protein intake in their diets.
GABA - a neurotransmitter for our nervous system
Glutamine - known as brain fuel
L-Phenylalanine - neurotransmitter that promotes alertness
Carnitine - helps transport long-chain fatty acids used for energy production
Lysine - acts as a building block for protein that aids in proper growth and bone development and calcium absorption in adults
Why should we take amino acids? There are approximately 28 known amino acids that when combined together make up hundreds of proteins that are present in all living things. In order for all the vitamins and minerals we intake on a daily basis to work properly, amino acids are an imperative part of our lives.
Our liver produces 80% of our amino acids - the non essential amino acids, which can be manufactured by the body from other amino acids obtained from dietary sources. The other 20% are produced by a healthy diet and these are called essential amino acids which can not be manufactured by the body and need to be obtained from our diets. The importance of proper amino acid levels is to insure that our bodies have enough protein for every
day function. They enable all the vitamins and minerals to perform their jobs properly.
