Amino Acid Profile
 
Alanine Plays a major role in the transfer of nitrogen from the peripheral tissue to the liver. Is an important source of energy for muscle tissue, the brain and central nervous system; strengthens the immune system by producing antibodies; helps in the metabolism of sugars and organic acids.

 
Aspartic Acid Aids in the expulsion of harmful ammonia from the body. When ammonia enters the circulatory system it acts as a highly toxic substance which can be harmful to the central nervous system. Recent studies have shown that Aspartic Acid may increase resistance to fatigue and increase endurance.

 
Glutamic Acid This amino acid has been shown to improve mental capacities, speeds the healing of process of ulcers and gives a lift from fatigue. It also helps control alcoholism and the craving for sugar.

 
Histidine This non-essential amino acid is found abundantly in hemoglobin; Histadine maintains nutrients for the myelin sheaths which surround and insulate nerves. Histidine is required for the production of histamine, and is often used in the treatment of anemia, allergies, rheumatoid arthritis and other inflammatory reactions.

 
Isoleucine An essential amino acid, Isoleucine is necessary for hemoglobin formation,stabilizing and regulating blood sugar and energy levels. Deficiencies may contribute to muscle twitching and tremors.

 
Lysine Lysine is one of the essential amino acids that cannot be manufactured by the human body. It insures the adequate absorption of calcium; helps form collagen which makes up bone cartilage & connective tissues; aids in the production of antibodies, hormones & enzymes. Recent studies have shown that Lysine is known for its ability to fight the Herpes Simplex-1 virus and cold sores.

 
Phenylalanine Used by the brain to produce Norepinephrine, a chemical that transmits signals between nerve cells and the brain; keeps you awake & alert; reduces hunger pains; functions as an antidepressant and helps improve memory.

 
Serine Serine is a nonessential amino acid that is needed for the metabolism of fats and fatty acids, muscle growth and a healthy immune system. A storage source of glucose by the liver and muscles; helps strengthen the immune system by providing antibodies; synthesizes fatty acid sheath around nerve fibers.

 
Tyrosine Transmits nerve impulses to the brain; helps overcome depression; Improves memory; increases mental alertness; promotes the healthy functioning of the thyroid, adrenal and pituitary glands. This hormone regulates growth rate, metabolic rate, skin health and mental health.

 
Arginine Studies have shown that is has improved immune responses to bacteria, viruses & tumor cells; promotes wound healing and regeneration of the liver; causes the release of growth hormones; considered crucial for optimal muscle growth and tissue repair.

 
Cysteine Functions as an antioxidant and is a powerful aid to the body in protecting against radiation and pollution. It can help slow down the aging process, deactivate free radicals, neutralize toxins; aids in protein synthesis and presents cellular change. It is necessary for the formation of the skin, which aids in the recovery from burns and surgical operations. Hair and skin are made up of 10-14% Cystine.

 
Glycine A nonessential amino acid, is required by the body for the maintenance of the central nervous system, and in men glycine plays an essential role in maintaining healthy prostate functions. It helps trigger the release of oxygen to the energy requiring cell-making process as well as providing nutrients to support a strong immune system and free radical fighter.

 
Hydroxyproline Hydroxyproline is necessary for the construction of the body's major structural protein, collagen. Defects in collagen synthesis lead to easy bruising, internal bleeding, breakdown of connective tissue of the ligaments and tendons, and increased risk to blood vessel damage.

 
Leucine Leucine is an essential amino acid that cannot be synthesized by the body but must always be acquired from dietary sources. Leucine promotes the healing of bones, skin and muscle tissue. Because Leucine cannot be made by the body from other sources, it is very important to maintain adequate amounts in your diet or by additional supplementation.

 
Methionine Methionine is an essential amino acid that is not manufactured by your body. Is a principle supplier of sulfur which improves the tone of your skin, promotes growth and conditions your hair as well as strengthen your nails. The sulphur also protects the cells from airborne pollutants, such as smog, slows down the aging process in the cells, and is involved with the production of protein. Methionine is an excellent chelator of heavy metals,such as lead, cadmium and mercury, binding them and aiding in their excretion from the body. It can help aid in some cases of allergy because it reduces histamine release.

 
Proline Proline is a nonessential amino acid, which improves skin texture, proper functioning of joints and tendons, and also helps maintain and strengthen heart muscles.

 
Threonine Threonine, an essential amino acid is an important constituent in many body proteins and is necessary for the formation of tooth enamel protein, elastin, and collagen. It also has a minor role in controlling fat buildup in the liver, helps the digestive and intestinal tracts function more smoothly and can be helpful in some cases of depression.

 
Valine Valine is an essential amino acid that is helpful in muscle building (along with isoleucine and leucine) and in liver and gallbladder disease. Valine has a stimulant effect. Healthy growth depends on it. Promotes mental vigor, muscle coordination and calm emotions.

 
   




   
 
Trace Minerals
 
Calcium Vital for the formation of strong bones and teeth. Calcium lowers cholesterol levels and is an important mineral which is also essential in blood clotting and helps prevent cancer.

 
Potassium This mineral is important for a healthy nervous system and a regular heart beat. It helps prevent stroke and aids in proper muscle contractions.

 
Manganese Minute quantities are needed for the protein and fat metabolism, healthy nerves, a healthy immune system and the blood sugar regulation. Manganese is used in energy production and is required for normal bone growth and for reproduction.

 
Iron Perhaps the most important function of Iron in the body is its production of hemoglobin and myoglobin, and the oxygenation of red blood cells. Iron is required for a healthy immune system and for energy production.

 
Magnesium This is a vital catalyst in enzyme activity, especially the activity of those enzymes involved in energy production. It also assists in the calcium and potassium uptake.

 
Sodium Sodium is necessary for maintaining proper water balance and blood pH. It is also need for stomach, nerve and muscle function.

 
Selenium Selenium protects the immune system by preventing the formation of fee radicals and is an important antioxidant. It has also been found to act as a preventative against the formation of certain types of tumors.

 
Zinc Zinc is an essential mineral which is important in prostate gland function and the growth of the reproductive organs. It is required for protein synthesis and collagen formation and promotes a healthy immune system and the healing of wounds.
