Amino Vital

 

The Science

The amino acids and innovative formulas of Amino Vital products are a vital key to help you perform at your peak and beyond.

Amino acids are the building blocks of all protein, whether it's the protein making up the muscles and organs in your body, or the protein you consume as food. Your cells need these amino acids to carry out basic, necessary cell functions and to construct new proteins that will compose tissue and organs in your body. But in order for these cells to get their amino acid supply, your body must first digest food to break down the ingested protein into its amino acid constituents, known as free amino acids. Therefore, when free form amino acids are consumed directly, your body doesn't have to spend the time and energy extracting them from digestion, and your cells can get them faster. Free amino acids play a vital role in muscle cell growth, repair, and maintenance, making them a crucial aspect of fitness and an ideal source of overall energy.

Numerous studies have shown that supplements of 5 key amino acids benefit athletic performance: the three essential amino acids known as the branched chain amino acids (BCAA's, leucine, isoleucine and valine), plus glutamine and arginine. The BCAAs work together to boost your performance in several, complementary ways. First, they slow down the breakdown of muscle protein during and after your workout, and they-- especially leucine-- have been shown to increase the rate of protein synthesis. Thus, your muscles recover and rebuild much faster. Second, BCAAs are metabolized directly in the muscles to give you muscle energy. Finally, they help lower serotonin levels in the brain to keep you focused and feeling energized. Meanwhile, glutamine and arginine work while you exercise and while you rest to remove harmful toxins, improve antioxidant activity, and strengthen the body's immune functions.

Our scientists have carefully developed Amino Vital products to help you bring your athletic performance to its highest levels. The perfect combination of the five vital amino acids deliver the nutrition you need to restore your muscle fibers to their optimal state quickly, and keep your body feeling energized and healthy in the long run. Therefore, with Amino Vital, you'll find your body primed for maximum performance.
