Amino acid
Amino acids are organic compounds that serve as the building blocks of proteins. They play a critical role in various biological processes, including protein synthesis, tissue repair, nutrient absorption, and hormone production. Each amino acid consists of a basic amino group (-NH₂), an acidic carboxyl group (-COOH), and a unique side chain (R group) that determines its properties.
Amino acids are classified into two main categories
Essential Amino Acids (EAAs)
Essential amino acids can‘t be synthesized by the human body and must be obtained through diet. There are 9 essential amino acids:
- L-Histidine base
- L-Phenylalanine
- L-Isoleucine
- L-Threonine
- L-Leucine
- L-Tryptophan
- L-Lysine base
- L-Valine
- L-Methionine
Amino acid derivatives
- BCAA
- Histidine HLC
- DL-Methionine
- Lysine HCL
- DL-Phenylalanine
Non-Essential Amino Acids (Non-EAAs)
Non-essential amino acids can be synthesized by the body, so they do not need to be obtained directly from food. There are 11 non-essential amino acids:
- L-Alanine
- L-Glutamine
- L-Arginine
- L-Glycine
- L-Asparagine
- L-Proline
- L-Aspartic acid
- L-Serine
- L-Cysteine
- L-Tyrosine
- L-Glutamic acid
Amino acid derivatives
- Beta-Alanine
- L-Citrulline DL-Malate
- D-Aspartic Acid
- L-Citrulline Nitrate
- D-Serine
- L-Cysteine HCL Anhydrate
- L-Alanyl-L-Glutamine
- L-Cysteine HCL Monohydrate
- L-Arginine HCL
- L-Hydroxyproline
- L-Arginine L-Aspartate
- N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine
- L-Arginine Nitrate
- N-Acetyl-L-Tyrosine
- L-Arginine-Alpha-Ketoglutarate
- Phosphatidylserine
