Amino acids are the building blocks that are creating proteins


The amino acids are essential to the body's functions, such for immune system, our muscles, and the metabolism. 

The intake of amino acid supplement contributes to muscle building, accelerate recovery, and prevent muscle breakdown.

EAA

With EAA you will have all the amino acids that contribute to protein synthesis in the body. 

If you train intensively, do strength training or want to build muscles, your need for essential amino acids (EAA) is greater. 

Any intense and prolonged muscle work leads to increased protein turnover in the muscles. In this, EAA supplement will support you.

L-Glutamine

You can say that health starts in the gut. That is where the majority of your immune system resides.

Glutamine acts as fuel for the cells in the gut and is essential for the gut's well-being. A deficiency in glutamine can occur during periods of stress, intense exercise, and various digestive issues.

Glutamine is one of the 20 amino acids that the body needs to build proteins. A proper functioned gut is crucial as it allows the passage of nutrients. 

It has also shown having anti-inflammatory effects on white blood cells and T cells, which are essential for the immune system.

Various amino acids

There are total 20 different amino acids that are categorized as essentials and non-essentials. 

To function optimally, our body require all 20 amino acids. 

Essential amino acids consist 8 unique amino acids, which are referred to EAA (Essential Amino Acids). 

EAA are the amino acids that the body cannot produce on its own, and we must therefore obtain them through our diet. EAA supplements are therefore very suitable as a complement to the diet. 


And amongst the total 8 amino acids, 3 of these are branched-chain amino acids known as BCAA (Branched-chain Amino Acids).

When and how to use?

Most efficient use of amino acids comes with drink mixed with water prior and during workout. 

Also after workout for recovery, and as general supplement every day to ensure you will have all the amino acids your body needs in your daily intake.
