The body forms its own proteins from the amino acids that are released during the digestion of dietary proteins. They serve as the building blocks of numerous structures and functions in the body.
Muscles, connective tissue, enzymes, hormones, the immune system, and many other tissues and organs depend on a sufficient supply of amino acids. What's more, amino acids are needed to form various messenger substances that are involved in numerous metabolic processes.
However, the body cannot use dietary proteins directly. Regardless of whether they come from meat, fish, eggs, dairy products or plant sources, they must first be broken down into their individual amino acids in the digestive tract. In this natural metabolic process, in addition to usable amino acids, nitrogen-containing degradation products are also produced, which are eliminated through the liver and kidneys.
Therefore, the utilisation of dietary proteins involves several stages of digestion and metabolism that require a lot of effort and time from the body. What's more, the body cannot produce essential amino acids by itself and can only keep them available to a limited extent. Therefore, a regular intake of high-quality protein through the diet is necessary to ensure the supply of these vital nutrients.
EAA ProEliteX® contains all nine essential amino acids in free form. The advantage of free amino acids is that they are already in a broken-down form.
Unlike dietary proteins, they do not first need to be broken down into individual amino acids through digestive processes, so they are available to the body relatively quickly.
EAA ProEliteX® is generally well tolerated and safe when taken in the recommended amounts. However, please note the following:
