The Myth About Amino Acids

This time, we will talk about AMINO ACIDS. Athletes know a lot about them, but the rest of us know very little because a myth has been created that they are needed only by athletes to build muscle mass!

Unfortunately, that is not true… – this is a VERY important component of health, and insufficient quality can lead to hundreds of different diseases, including cancer!

AMINO ACIDS are the main component of cells (building material). When we eat proteins, they are hydrolysed into amino acids in our body. These are absorbed by the intestinal walls, carried into the bloodstream and then pass through the liver, where chemical reactions take place. They are then combined again into proteins, adapting to the specific body and forming a special protein found specifically in that body. All of this can happen provided that a person has a healthy digestive system, liver, pancreas, clean intestines, etc.

Not everyone knows that, out of approximately 20 AMINO ACIDS, NINE are ESSENTIAL AMINO ACIDS – meaning that the body does not synthesise them, even if all organs function perfectly. Therefore, they must be obtained through food.

It is even more important to understand the functions of these essential AMINO ACIDS, which may provide answers to the questions of WHY people develop problems and HOW to prevent them.

Nine Essential Amino Acids

HISTIDINE

Histidine supports the body’s growth processes and helps repair tissues, such as muscles. This amino acid also plays a key role in the production of the myelin layer (a protective layer that surrounds nerve cells and helps produce gastric juice). Sources: dairy products, poultry, fish, rice and wheat.

PHENYLALANINE

It supports mood and improves memory, thereby significantly influencing the proper functioning of the entire brain. This substance also helps increase the levels of nerve impulse transmitters in the body – these impulses ensure the overall functioning of the nervous system. Phenylalanine improves the absorption of UV rays, facilitating the formation of vitamin D in the body. Sources: dairy products, almonds, avocados, nuts and seeds.

LYSINE

Lysine plays its most important role in the absorption of calcium and the development of bones. Therefore, calcium deficiency is not the only cause of osteoporosis!! This amino acid also helps maintain a proper nitrogen balance in the body, which is a prerequisite for proper muscle mass and delaying fatigue. Lysine helps the body produce antibodies and regulates various hormones that act as signal carriers. Sources: cheese, potatoes, milk, eggs, red meat and yeast products.

LEUCINE

Leucine participates in regulating blood sugar levels, which makes it important for those who suffer from hyperglycaemia, as well as for people trying to reduce body fat. It also helps maintain proper human growth hormone levels and is therefore an important substance in the development of muscle tissue. Sources: soybeans, lentils, egg yolks, almonds, milk, fish, peanuts and prawns.

METHIONINE

People who are trying to build muscle should definitely pay attention to methionine because it burns fat and increases testosterone levels. This amino acid also has a positive effect on the treatment of depression, arthritis and the liver. Sources: meat, fish, beans, eggs, lentils, onions, yoghurt and seeds.

ISOLEUCINE

Isoleucine is the main muscle recovery agent after exercise and also helps regulate blood sugar levels. The substance participates in the production of haemoglobin and helps ensure blood clotting. Sources: chicken, fish, almonds, eggs, liver, lentils and beef.

THREONINE

The main function of this amino acid is the formation of collagen and elastin, which form the connective substances of cells. Threonine makes a major contribution to the functioning of the liver and the maintenance of a healthy immune system. In addition, this amino acid promotes the overall absorption of nutrients in the body. Vegetarians should pay particular attention to this substance because threonine is mainly found in meat products. If you are a vegetarian but consume dairy products, cottage cheese is a good choice, while other sources for vegetarians include wheat germ, nuts and beans. However, the concentration of amino acids in these sources is still lower, so dietary supplements should be considered. Sources: meat, fish and eggs.

VALINE

Valine repairs muscle cells and helps form new ones, while also maintaining nitrogen balance. This amino acid also promotes the formation of glucose reserves for times when your body will truly need them (for example, during physical exercise). Sources: dairy products, meat, grains, mushrooms, soy and peanuts.

TRYPTOPHAN

Tryptophan plays an important role in the synthesis of serotonin, which is known as the “happiness hormone”. Serotonin affects mood, the sleep cycle and emotional well-being. In addition, tryptophan also helps produce melatonin, which regulates sleep and the body’s biological rhythms. It also promotes the normal functioning of the nervous system and participates in protein synthesis, helping maintain healthy bodily function overall. Sources: meat, fish, eggs, dairy products, legumes, nuts and seeds, grains and dark chocolate.

Quotes

Quotes from a lecture about AMINO ACIDS by ILYA KONDRATYEV – a physician and Doctor of Medical and Naturopathic Sciences (who works with athletes, including Olympians and professional athletes in the USA and around the world):

• “The most important thing is HOW MUCH of what you eat is absorbed! A large part remains in the intestinal tract and turns into faecal matter. When you eat meat, only 28–35% of the protein it contains will perform a building function. The remaining 60–65% will become waste. In addition, unnecessary amounts of glucose, fat, ammonia and uric acid salts are produced;
• We use the new matrix of all essential amino acids, Protivity, in a special form and combination. It is a unique product that is not available anywhere else. It is a product of the highest technology, manufactured by only one company in the world. This product is plant-based, pure and natural. It is absorbed by 99%. According to scientific research, it reaches the cell after only 23 minutes! An higher-weight person using this product will lose fat mass. Thin people will gain mass because muscles will begin to form… It is beneficial for pregnant women and people who are ill because collagen and immune cells are formed.
• In cases of diabetes, Protivity can help a person stop using insulin within five months. Currently, the largest risk group for diabetes in the USA is children under the age of 12 due to food and a lack of high-quality amino acids.
• Unfortunately, many doctors and physiologists do not know about the importance of these amino acids. I did not know about it myself either. I now take ten tablets of this product a day and have lost 15 kilograms.
• The condition of the skin also changes because it depends on collagen, which maintains the structure of the skin. Ligaments, joints and cartilage – these are also collagen!
• If a person with low physical activity starts using this product, their muscles become stronger and their body firmer;
• Only when I started using this product did I begin to feel that my body was finally no longer starving and that the cell was nourished;
• My five-year-old child takes three tablets of this product a day. I think that three tablets will also be sufficient during puberty;
• For athletes, it works like this – in all sports that require strong muscles, ten tablets a day. An additional five to ten tablets can be taken before competitions;
• 90% of all illnesses are associated with inflammatory processes. Amino acids form immune cells, so it is no surprise that diseases for which doctors are powerless are healed;
• There are several groups of products that are vitally important for humans – amino acids, three essential fatty acids, vitamins, minerals and water (and living water is a very important factor and must be treated with great care).”

Therefore, we need a high-quality product – an EXTRACT (+ high-quality neurotransmitters are needed) so that a person does not expend energy on processing and absorption, and does not acidify or pollute their body.
