Amino acids are essential for growth of muscle and many functions within the body. In simple terms amino acids are the building blocks of protein. Protein is made up of various amino acids which are broken down when consumed and then put together again to form new proteins and cells which make up most solid parts of our body, skin, eyes, hair, but primarily muscle. Our most popular amino acid products are CNP Pro Aminos and USN Amino Pro Nano Stack.
A few of the essential amino acids include, Lysine, Phenylalanine, Histidine and Leucine and serve many uses from improving digestion, enhancing hormone release, assisting in the breakdown of fats and the improvement of memory to name just a few.
Another important group of amino acids are called Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAA's) which are considered the most important of all. There are only 3 BCAA's (Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine). These 3 amino acids are primarily metabolized in skeletal muscle rather than other tissues of the body as the other 19 amino acids are. They serve many functions for skeletal muscles such as increasing muscular cell energy production, enhancing protein synthesis, increasing metabolic signals, as well as being the precursor for the formation of other amino acids. CNP Pro BCAAs and Reflex BCAAs are our two most popular BCAA products.
