L-ALANINE
General
L-Alanine is a non-essential amino acid, which means that it need
not be present in nutrition. L-Alanine is manufactured in the liver.
L-Alanine is contained in muscle tissue and is converted into glucose
when the liver or muscles need energy. L-Alanine is manufactured during
various metabolic processes. There is a high concentration of L-Alanine
in muscle tissue. Excess L-Alanine can be broken down into glucose and
then used as an energy source.*
Function
L-Alanine is an important source of energy for muscle tissue, the
brain and the central nervous system. It bolsters the immune system
by manufacturing antibodies and aids in the metabolism of sugars and
organic acids. L-Alanine is significant for the production of protein,
essential for the proper operation of the nervous system and aids in
the manufacture of neuro transmitters. L-Alanine can also function as
a retardant or calming neuro transmitter in the brain. L-Alanine has
been proven to stimulate the immune system.*
Actions
Promotes the metabolism of carbohydrates (glucose), provides energy
and improves the discharge of toxins.*
Possible advantages
Helps maintain a healthy blood sugar level.*
Found in
Meat, cheese, yoghurt,
avocado and other protein-rich products.*
L-ARGININE
General
L-Arginine is a non-essential amino acid which is used by the body during
periods of growth. It can release insulin and stimulate growth hormones.*
Function
L-Arginine improves
the immune response against bacteria, viruses and tumour cells; improves
the healing of wounds and renewal of the liver; stimulates the growth
of growth hormones and is considered important for optimum muscle growth
and tissue repair.*
Actions
-Stimulates sperm production*
-In the event of being overweight and weight loss (stimulates growth
hormone)*
- detoxifies*
- lysine's counterpart*
Possible advantages
Helps keep the heart healthy.*
Found in
Large concentrations of protein can be found in meat, nuts eggs
and dairy products.*
GLYCINE
General
Glycine is a non-essential amino acid. Glycine is a constituent
of tripeptide glutathione and the body uses it to manufacture protein.
It is also involved in the manufacture of neuro transmitters. Neuro
transmitters are the brain's chemical messengers. Glycine is an important
part of GTF (glucose tolerance factor). The prostate gland manufactures
a liquid that contains glycine and researchers think it has a positive
effect on the normal functioning of the prostate.*
Function
Improves the release of oxygen where energy is necessary for cell
creation processes; important in the manufacture of the hormones responsible
for a robust immune system. Finally, glycine is used to reduce the need
for sugars and improves concentration.*
Action
- acid binding*
- nutritional*
Possible advantages
Helps keep the central nervous system healthy. Improves concentration
and mental clarity. Plays an important role in maintaining a healthy
prostate function in men.*
Found in
Fish, meat, legumes and dairy products.*
L-ORNITHINE
General
L-Ornithine is a non-essential amino acid that is manufactured
from the amino acid Arginine.*
Function
L-Ornithine promotes the release of the growth hormone which increases
the metabolism of excess bodily fat. L-Ornithine is also necessary for
a healthy immune system and liver function and also promotes the repair
of damaged tissue.*
Action
- stimulates the immune system*
- synergetic effect with Arginine (manufacture of growth hormone)*
Possible advantages
Helps build up the immune system, heals wounds and renews the liver.*
Found in
Fish, meat, legumes and dairy products.*
L-Glutamine Derivative
(A10)
General
L-Glutamine Derivative (A10) is a natural ingredient of the
human body, but is reproduced synthetically for Aminocare A10. It
is
the subject of extensive laboratory and clinical research. The final
conclusions of clinical research have not yet been reached.*
Vitamin B-2
General
Converted into two coenzymes by the body first into flavine mononucleotide
(= riboflavine-5-fosfaat=FMN) and then in the liver into flavine adrenaline
dinucleotide (=FAD). In the event physiological doses are administered
approximately 9% appears in the subject's urine unchanged, in the event
of higher doses more appears. The coenzymes FMN and FAD are involved
in countless oxidation-reduction processes such as the oxidation of
amino acids and reactions in the citric acid cycle (chemical conversion
of glucose in a cell's mitochondrion which releases energy).*
Function
Vitamin B-2 acts as an intermediary in the transfer of electrons
in various essential oxidation-reduction reactions and participates
in many metabolic carbohydrate, fat and protein reactions. Vitamin
B-2 is necessary for cell breathing. It works together with enzymes
thereby
using the oxygen cells. Vitamin B-2 is easily absorbed through the
walls of the small intestine, where blood transports it to the body's
tissues,
where it is used and then passed as urine. Vitamin B-2 is not stored
in the body in large quantities and therefore has to be ingested regularly.*
Action
Vitamin B-2 promotes normal growth and development.*
Possible advantages
Vitamin B-2 is necessary for maintaining good eyesight, skin,
nails and hair. It helps release energy from food. Vitamin B-2 aids
maintain
healthy breathing, digestion and mucous cilair circulation. Helps maintain
the central nervous system.*
Found in
Occurs in dairy (products), meat, vegetable, eggs, fruit and grain products.*
L-SERINE
General
L-Serine is a non-essential amino acid.*
Function
L-Serine is necessary
for the metabolism of fat and fatty acids, muscle growth and a healthy
immune system. L-Serine a source of storage for glucose in the liver
and muscles It promotes the manufacture of immunoglobulins and antibodies,
and it is a constituent of brain protein and nerve sheaths. It is important
for the manufacture of cell membrane and muscle tissue synthesis.*
Found in
Cottage cheese, eggs, meat, game, poultry, wheat germ, sesame seeds,
sunflower seeds, almonds, peanuts and maize.*
L-THREONINE
General
L-Threonine is an essential amino acid.*
Function
Threorine is important for the manufacture of many proteins and
tooth enamel, collagen and elastine. It metabolises fat and prevents
fat metabolising in the liver. Improves the operation of the digestive
system and digestive tract; improves metabolism and assimilation.*
Found in
Cheese, milk, eggs, meat, chicken, fish, seafood and shell fish,
wheat germ, rolled oats, nuts, seeds and pulses.*
L-VALINE
General
L-Valine is an essential amino acid.*
Function
L-Valine has a stimulating effect on the body and is used by bodybuilders
to stimulate muscle growth, tissue repair and energy. Improves mental
powers, muscle coordination and calm emotions.*
Possible advantages
Helps by stimulating energy and maintains healthy growth.*
- Positive for the nervous system*
- Combats amino acid deficiency caused by medicines*
- Sleeping problems, mental and neurotic problems*
- Helps control appetite*
- growth, repair of muscle tissue*
Found in
Soft curd cheese, beef and lamb, chicken, fish, legumes, rice,
peanuts, sesame seed and almonds.*
