Involved in immune system function by enhancing immunoglobulin production and anti- body formation. ASPARAGINE Non-Essential - Proteogenic - Un-charged, Hydrophilic - Amidic Main Functions: Asparagine is made from Aspartic Acid plus ATP (adenosine tri-phosphate). One of the two main excitatory neurotransmitters. Glutamate, made from glutamic acid, is the other. Among their functions as neurotransmitters, of particular interest is the fact that Aspartic Acid and Asparagine have high concentrations in the hippocampus and the hypothalamus. The hippocampus is a part of the brain that plays the main role in short-term memory, while the hypothalamus is involved in the biology of emotion, and serves as a neurological gate between the brain and the rest of the nervous system. Aids in removing ammonia from the body. May increase indurance and decrease fatigue. Detoxifies harmful chemicals. Involved in DNA synthesis. Probably stimulates thymus gland. CYSTEINE-CYSTINE Non-Essential - Glycogenic and Ketogenic Un-charged, Hydrophilic - Sulfur-Containing Main Functions: Cysteine and Cystine are interconvertible. Two molecules of Cysteine make Cystine. Antioxidant. Protective against radiation, pollution, ultra-violet light and other causes of increased free radical production. Natural detoxifier.

GLUTAMIC ACID Non-Essential - Proteogenic - Glycogenic - Acid Side Chain Main Functions: Glutamic Acid is a precursor to Glutamine and GABA (2 neurotransmitters). One of two excitatory neurotransmitters, the other being aspartic acid/asparagine. Excesses in brain tissue can call cell damage. This is thought to be one of the mechanisms by why strokes kill brain cells; that is through the release of large amounts of Glutamic Acid. Helps stop alcohol and sugar cravings. Increases energy. Accelerates wound healing and ulcer healing. Detoxifies ammonia in the brain by forming glutamine, which can cross the blood-brain barrier, which Glutamic Acid cannot do. Plays major role in DNA synthesis. GLUTAMINE Non-Essential - Proteogenic - Glycogenic Un-charged, Hydrophilic - Amidic Main Functions: Precursor to the neurotransmitter GABA. This is a vital function, as GABA is an inhibitory neurotransmitter that produces serenity and relaxation. Important glycogenic amino acid, meaning that it is essential for helping to maintain normal and steady blood sugar levels. Involved with muscle strength and indurance. Essential to gastrointestinal function; provides energy to the small intestines. The intestines are the only organ in the body that uses Glutamine as its primary source of energy. Glutamine has the highest blood concentration of all the amino acids. Precursor to the neurotransmitter amino acid Glutamate (Glutamic Acid). Involved in DNA synthesis. GLYCINE Non-Essential - Proteogenic - Glycogenic Non-Polar, Hydrophobic - Aliphatic Main Functions: Part of the stucture of hemoglobin. One of the two main inhibitory neurotransmitters, the other being GABA. Part of cytochromes, which are enzymes involved in energy production. Inhibits sugar cravings.

Has been used to treat rheumatoid arthritis. Precursot to histamine. Associated with allergic response and has been used to treat allergy. Assists in maintaining proper blood pH. ISOLEUCINE Essential - Proteogenic - Glycogenic and Ketogenic Non-Polar, Hydrophobic - Aliphatic Main Functions: One of the 3 major Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAA), all of which are involved with muscle strength, endurance, and muscle stamina. Muscle tissue uses Isoleucine as an energy source. Required in the formation of hemoglobin. BCAA levels are significantly decreased by insulin. Translation: High dietary sugar or glucose intake causes release of insulin, which, in turn, causes a drop in BCAA levels. Therefore, right before exercise, it is not wise to ingest foods high in glucose or other sugars, as the BCAA's, including Isoleucine will not be readily available to muscles. LEUCINE Essential - Proteogenic - Ketogenic - Non-Polar, Hydrophobic - Aliphatic Main Functions: As one of the 3 branched-chain amino acids (the other 2 being Isoleucine and Valine), Leucine has all of the properties discussed with Isoleucine, as it pertains specifically to the branched-chain amino acid functions. Potent stimulator of insulin. Helps with bone healing. Helps promote skin healing. Modulates release of Enkephalins, which are natural pain-reducers. LYSINE Essential - Proteogenic - Glycogenic and Ketogenic - Basic Side Chains Main Functions: Inhibits viral growth and, as a result, is used in the treatment of Herpes Simplex, as well as the viruses associated with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, such as: Epstein-Barr Virus, CytoMegalo Virus, and HHV6. L-Carnitine is formed from Lysine and Vitamin C. Helps form collagen, the connective tissue present in bones, ligaments, tendons, and joints. Assists in the absorption of calcium. Essential for children, as it is critical for bone formation. Involved in hormone production. Lowers serum triglyceride levels. METHIONINE Essential - Proteogenic - Glycogenic Non-Polar, Hydrophobic - Sulfur-Containing Main Functions: Assists in breakdown of fats. Precursor of the amino acids Cysteine (and Cystine) and Taurine. Helps reduce blood cholesterol levels. Antioxidant. Assists in the removal of toxic wastes from the liver. One of the sulfur-containing aminos (the others being Cysteine and the minor amino acid, Taurine). The sulfur-containing amino acids act as anti-oxidants which neutralize free radicals. Helps prevent disorder of hair, skin, and nails due to sulfur and anti-oxidant activity. Precursor to Carnitine,Melatonin (the natural sleep aid) and Choline (part of the neurotransmitter, Acetylcholine). Involved in the breakdown of Epinephrine, Histamine, and Nicotinic Acid. Required for synthesis of RNA and DNA. Natural chelating agent for heavy metals, such as lead and mercury. PHENYLALANINE Essential - Proteogenic - Glycogenic and Ketogenic Non-Polar, Hydrophobic - Aromatic Main Functions: Precursor to Tyrosine, which, in turn, is the precursor to the neurotransmitters: Dopamine and the excitatory neurotransmitters Norepinephrine and Epinephrine. Precursor to the hormone, Thyroxine. Enhances mood, clarity of thought, concentration, and memory. Suppresses appetite. Major part of collagen formation. While the L-form of all of the other amino acids is the one that is beneficial to people, the D and DL forms of Phenylalanine have been useful in treating pain. DL-Phenylalanine is useful in reducing arthritic pain. Powerful anti-depressant. Used in the treatment of Parkinson's Disease. PROLINE Non-Essential - Proteogenic - Glycogenic Non-Polar, Hydrophobic - Aliphatic Main Functions: Critical component of cartilage , and hence health of joints, tendons and ligaments. Involved in keeping heart muscle strong. The main precursor to Proline is Glutamate. Secondary precursor to Proline is Ornithine (minor amino acid). Works in conjunction with Vitamin C in keeping skin and joints healthy. SERINE Non-Essential - Proteogenic - Glycogenic Un-charged, Hydrophilic - Hydroxylic Main Functions: One of the 3 most important glycogenic amino acids, the others being alanine and glycine. Critical in maintaining blood sugar levels. Boosts immune system by assisting in production of antibodies and immunoglobulins. Myelin sheath (the fatty acid complex that surrounds the axons of nerves is derived from serine. One variation of Serine namely Phosphotidyl Serine, a minor amino acid serves several important functions within the central nervous system, including development of the myelin sheath. Multiple Sclerosis is one of the so-called "De-myelinating Diseases." Required for growth and maintenance of muscle. The amino acid Glycine is a precursor to Serine and the two are interconvertible. THREONINE Essential - Proteogenic - Glycogenic Un-charged, Hydrophilic - Hydroxylic Main Functions: Required for formation of collagen. Helps prevent fatty deposits in the liver. Aids in production of antibodies. Can be converted to Glycine (a neurotransmitter) in the central nervous system. Acts as detoxifier. Needed by the GI (gastrointensinal) tract for normal functioning. Provides symptomatic relife in ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Lou Gehrig's Disease). In laboratory experiments with animals, Threonine increases thymus weight. Threonine is often low in depressed patients. In that group of patients, Threonine is helpful in treating the depression. TRYPTOPHAN Essential - Proteogenic - Glycogenic and Ketogenic Non-Polar, Hydrophobic - Aromatic Main Functions: Precursor to the key neurotransmitter, serotonin, which exerts a calming effect. Effective sleep aid, due to conversion to serotonin. Reduces anxiety. Effective in some forms of depression. Treatment for migraine headaches. Stimulates growth hormone. Along with Lysine, Carnitine, and Taurine is effective in lowering cholesterol levels. Can be converted into niacin (Vitamin B3). Lowers risk of arterial spasms. The only plasma amino acid that is bound to protein. Tryptophan must compete with 5 other amino acids to pass through the blood-brain barrier and enter the brain. Those 5 are: tyrosine, phenylalanine, leucine, isoleucine, and valine and are called Large Neutral Amino Acids (LNAA). Requires pyridoxal-5-phosphate (P5P) a form of vitamin B6 to be converted into serotonin. P5P deficiency will lower serotonin levels, even if Tryptophan levels are normal. TYROSINE Conditionally Essential - Proteogenic - Glycogenic and Ketogenic Un-charged, Hydrophilic - Aromatic Main Functions: Precursor to neurotransmitters dopamine, norepinephrine, epinephrine (adrenaline) and melanin. Effective anti-depressant for norepinephrine-deficient depressions. Tyrosine is preferred over Phenylalanine, which is also a precursor to all of the above neurotransmitters. Phenylalanine is one step removed from the metabolic process, and can aggravate high blood pressure. Precursor to thyroxine and growth hormone. Increases energy, improves mental clarity and concentration. Requires pyridoxal-5-phosphate (P5P) a form of vitamin B6 to be converted into norepinephrine. P5P deficiency will lower norepinephrine levels, even if Tyrosine levels are normal. VALINE Essential - Proteogenic - Glycogenic Non-Polar, Hydrophobic - Aliphatic Main Functions: One of the 3 major Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAA) . . .the other 2 being leucine and isoleucine . . . all of which are involved with muscle strength, endurance, and muscle stamina. BCAA levels are significantly decreased by insulin. High dietary sugar or glucose intake causes release of insulin, which, in turn, causes a drop in BCAA levels. Competes with Tyrosine and Tryptophan in crossing the blood-brain barrier. The higher the Valine level, the lower the brain levels of Tyrosine and Tryptophan. One of the implications of this competition is that Tyrosine and Tryptophan nutritional supplements need to be taken at least an hour before or after meals or supplements that are high in branched chain amino acids. Actively absorbed and used directly by muscle as an energy source. Not processed by the liver before entering the blood stream. Any acute physical stress (including surgery, sepsis, fever, trauma, starvation) requires higher amounts of Valine, Leucine and Isoleucine that any of the other amino acids. During period of Valine deficiency, all of the other amino acids (and protein) are less well absorbed by the GI tract.
