Amino Acid Therapy

AMINO ACIDS
As part of our desire to free people of harmful side effects and costly chemical categories like SSRI's and Mao inhibitors, we have been using quite effectively amino acid, the chemical language of the body. The amino acids are safe, affordable and natural. When introduced into the system, they start doing their job within days as opposed to SSRI's and Mao inhibitors, which take several weeks.

We are now using amino acids for depression, anxiety, ADD, teens with chemical imbalances and many other disorders.
 

UNDERSTANDING AMINO ACIDS / PROTEINS
Proteins control almost every biochemical reaction in the body. All proteins derive from amino acids and are commonly called the building blocks of life. If you remove the water and fat from the body, amino acids comprise 75% of what remains.

All the nearly 40,000 distinct proteins found in the human body are made from only 20 amino acids called the proteogenic amino acids. Amino acids can be broken down into essential and nonessential catagorized. The body cannot synthesize essential amino acids. They must be obtained from diet. Non-essential amino acids can be synthesized in the body and are not mandatory in the diet. Although the body can manufacture non-essential amino acids, an abnormality in the production of the non-essential amino acids can be detrimental metabolically. Some become conditionally essential amino acids under certain circumstances, i.e., infancy, illness, stress, etc.

Most of the protein in the body resides in the skeletal muscles. Only 0.1% of all protein is found as free amino acids. Plasma amino acids represent what is available to the body at the current time. A deficiency in one of the proteogenic amino acids can limit the body's ability to make an optimal number of certain proteins. Deficiency effects result in both health and disease.
