EAA9 OX

Description

Essential Amino Acids (EAAs) are the building blocks of protein that your body cannot produce on its own and must obtain from dietary sources. There are nine EAAs, and each plays a crucial and distinct role in various physiological processes, especially those related to muscle growth, repair, and overall health.

Here’s a breakdown of the role of each amino acid in an EAA matrix:

• Leucine: The primary trigger for muscle protein synthesis (muscle growth and repair).
• Isoleucine: Supports muscle metabolism, energy regulation, and immune function.
• Valine: Aids muscle growth, tissue regeneration, and provides energy to muscles.
• Lysine: Essential for protein synthesis (like collagen), calcium absorption, and hormone production.
• Methionine: Crucial for metabolism, detoxification (liver), and healthy hair, skin, and nails.
• Phenylalanine: Precursor to important neurotransmitters (dopamine, adrenaline) affecting mood and focus.
• Threonine: A key component of structural proteins like collagen and elastin; supports fat metabolism.
• Tryptophan: Precursor to serotonin (mood, sleep) and melatonin (sleep hormone).
• Histidine: Involved in producing histamine (immune response) and maintaining nerve cell protection.
