Amino acids

Amino acids are important molecules that serve as the building blocks of proteins in the body. There are 20 different types of amino acids, of which 9 are "essential", meaning they must be obtained from food as they cannot be synthesized in the body. Each type of amino acid has its own unique structure and function in the body. For example, leucine, isoleucine, and valine are branched-chain amino acids that are used to support muscle and metabolism. Arginine is used to support heart and blood vessel health, while glycine is used to support nervous system health. Amino acids can be obtained from various foods such as meat, fish, nuts, seeds, and legumes. On our website, you will find information on the different types of amino acids and their role in health, as well as foods that are sources of amino acids.
