The Amazing Amino Acids
If life is cannot be possible without enzymes, then it must also be said that enzymes cannot be possible without amino acids … the building blocks of proteins.
Amino acids are incredible because:
They may convert to brain chemicals called neurotransmitters: chemical messengers in the brain controlling mood, memory, emotion, feeling, and personality.
They provide the raw material to manufacture new cells and rebuild muscle tissue: Bone marrow makes 2.5 million red blood cells every second; every 4 days the lining of the gastrointestinal tract is replaced; most white cells are replaced in 10 days.
Increase stamina: The heart muscle and other organs are built and function on amino acids
Strengthen immune system
Promote wound healing, special amino acids are recommended pre and post surgery:
Pre surgery use the branch chain amino acids: isoleucine, leucine, and valine
Post surgery to accelerate wound healing use arginine, cysteine, glycine, methionine, and proline
Curb appetite by controlling blood sugar fluctuations
Repair and protect the liver (The aromatic group of amino acids can be hard on the liver)
Reduce blood pressure
Lowering cholesterol and triglycerides
Relieve pain
Provide relief for ailing gall bladders
Fight drug addiction
Prevent insomnia
Calm aggressiveness
Make hormones, e.g. in certain combinations they influence the production and release of growth hormone.
Neurotransmitter deficiencies are common among Health Recovery Center clients. The best way to reload these important chemical messengers is to use free form amino acids (pre-separated from the long-chain proteins they naturally occur with). Free form Amino Acids are easily absorbed straight through the intestinal wall without the need for digestive aids. For maximum effect, take them on an empty stomach 1/2 hour before a meal or an hour after. Do not take free form amino acids with milk or protein drinks as they impair absorption.
Eight Aminos are classified as essential meaning we must ingest them to meet our requirements for life, although friendly bacteria living in the intestinal tract continually provide us with small amounts to help keep us alive. Using essential amino acids, the body can, if necessary, use metabolic pathways to synthesize others.

General Reference (abrieviated)
L- Cysteine:
Helps repair tissues damaged by alcohol abuse, cigarette smoke, and air pollution through detoxification of acetaldehyde.
Helps maintain skin flexibility and texture.
Promotes red and white blood cell reproduction and tissue restoration in lung diseases.
Promotes iron absorption.
Helps prevent formation of harmful peroxidized fats and free radicals.
Protects lungs against cigarette smoke damage.
Used to treat bronchial disease and asthma.
L- Histidine:
Creates an anti-anxiety effect in the brain.
Promotes good hearing by stimulating auditory nerves.
Shows promise as an answer for rheumatoid arthritis.
Releases histamines from body stores for sexual arousal
L- Glycine:
Can be used as a beverage sweetener.
Decreases uric acid levels to reverse gout (temporary effect).
Has been shown useful in epilepsy and other conditions characterized by abnormal nerve firing.
L- Proline:
Can help lower blood pressure.
Promotes wound healing.
L- Taurine:
Can help inhibit epileptic seizures.
Helps repair muscle and tendon damage.
Helps promote skin flexibility, stops alcohol withdrawal tremors.
Is valuable in its potassium -sparing ability- keeping the heart muscle adequately supplied with potassium.
L- Tyrosine:
Because it is a precursor of the neurotransmitters norepinephrine and adrenaline, and dopamine, it is useful in combating depression.
Alas as a precursor of thyroid hormone.
L- Glutamine:
Produces an anti-stress effect.
Is useful in treating alcoholism and hypoglycemia by reducing cravings for alcohol and sugar.
Improves memory and dexterity.
Increases alertness by ridding the brain of the build up of ammonia.
L- Isoleusine:
Both are involved in stress, energy, and muscle metabolism.
Leucine
Stimulates insulin release and inhibits protein breakdown.
Both are useful in stress states of surgery, trauma, cirrhosis, fever, and starvation.
L-Phenylalanine:
Helps manage certain types of depression by increasing levels of the neurotransmitter dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine (adrenaline).
Increases blood pressure in individuals with low blood pressure.
L- Lysine:
Helps to build muscle protein
Helps those recovering from surgery and injuries.
Controls muscle contractions, spastic disorders.
Aids in calcium absorption and in maintaining proper nitrogen balance in adults.
Controls viral infections.
Inhibits growth and recurrence of herpes complex.
Stimulates secretion of gastric juices.
L- Arginine:
Triggers release of GH from the pituitary.
Increases sperm count, treats sterility in men.
Facilitates increase in muscle mass and reduction of body fat
Detoxifies excess ammonia, which is helpful in cirrhosis of the liver.
Stimulates the immune response by enhancing production of T cells.
Retards the growth of tumors and cancer
L- Alanine:
Converts quickly to usable glucose and prolongs blood sugar stability. (Helpful for hypoglycemics)
Reduces elevated triglycerides in diabetics.
May be helpful in preventing seizures.
Combined with high doses of B6, plays an important role in reversing immune deficiency by reproducing lymphocytes.
L- Methionine:
Removes excess brain histamine that can cause depression and compulsive/obsessiveness.
Prevents deposits and cohesion of fats in the liver.
Acts as memory builder by synthesizing choline.
L- Valine:
Promotes muscle coordination and proper functioning of the nervous system.
Promotes mental vigor.
Low serum valine is consistently found in patients with anorexia nervosa.
Aspartic Acid:
Highly concentrated in the brain, it is frequently low in unipolar depression.
Protects the liver; helps detoxify ammonia.
Promotes uptake of trace minerals in the intestinal tract.
New research points to aspartic acid as having a bigger role in creating brain energy metabolism, than as a neurotransmitter.
L- Serine:
Is a derivative of glycine.
May cause psychotic reactions and elevated blood pressure.
Enhances the effects of opiates (morphine etc.) and may be useful for pain relief.
A high serine to cysteine ratio is a clinical marker for psychosis.
L-Threonine:
Necessary for the formation of tooth enamel protein, collagen and elastin
Aids proper fat metabolism in the liver.
Helps the digestive and intestinal tracts function more smoothly.
Assists in metabolism and assimilation.
Useful in indigestion and intestinal malfunctions.
