Amino Acids

Building blocks for Proteins

There are 20 different types of amino acids from which 12 can be made "de novo" by humans, out of 8 essential amino acids.

The essential amino acids are phenylalanine, valine, threonine, tryptophan, isoleucine, methionine, leucine, and lysine.

Cysteine, tyrosine, histidine and arginine are additionally required by infants and growing children.

The non essential amino acids are alanine, arginine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cysteine, glycine, glutamic acid, glutamine, histidine, proline, serine and tyrosine.

Stimulators for hGH-release

RecoveryMatrix and VitalityMatrix are made from mostly amino acids to stimulate the pituitary to release growth hormone. Only the right combinations and amounts of amino acids seems to work well.

Amino Acids to build Collagen

Collagen is formed out of a few specific amino acids such as glycine, alanine, lysine, and proline. To generate a link to the neighbour collagen peptide, vitamin C is requested to form hydroxyproline. Rejuvenal skinproducts such as SkinMatrix and SkinPro contain mostly fish collagen peptides to form new collagen type 1 in skin and bones. With the last one, glycine is added as a linking protein.
