PRODUCT DETAILS:
9 Essential Amino Acids
In contrast to proteins or peptide-bound amino acids, NOW Sports Amino-9 Essentials has all nine essential amino acids in their superior free-form state and in the proportions recommended by the National Academy of Sciences to optimize protein synthesis and tissue repair for adults age 19 and over.*
What are Amino Acids?
Amino acids are the subunits that make up proteins. They are necessary for the function of all cells, for tissue repair, and for the production of enzymes and neurotransmitters.* The body uses 20 amino acids to construct proteins, but nine "essential amino acids" cannot be made by the human body and must be supplied by the diet in order to achieve proper protein synthesis and maintain overall health.*
Suggested Use
Mix 2 1/4 level teaspoons with 8 oz. of juice or your favorite beverage once daily. Taking with juice or other beverages is recommended due to the bitter taste of free-form amino acids. Store in a cool, dry, dark place after opening. People with limited diets or poor digestion may not get enough essential amino acids from their diet. Natural color variation may occur in this product. This product is sold by weight not volume.
