Ultimate Nutrition's Super
Whey Amino 2000 contains all of the most important amino acids and branched
chain amino acids for optimal nutritional support. These amino acids, of course,
provide the body with the support to produce proteins. Amino acids, however,
carry out other important functions. Nutritional supplementation keeps the amino
acid supply in the bloodstream within healthy range. Under some circumstances,
such as stress whether it is due to high-intensity exercise or other reasons,
amino acids in the blood can be depleted so that important substances in the
body cannot be produced in the right amounts at the right time in the right
place. For example, if serotonin cannot be synthesized in the brain, ordinary
stress may be aggravated to depression. Some amino acids, such as glycine, glutamine
and, among others arginine, combine with and neutralize toxins. This is of paramount
importance for liver health, since detoxification takes place in the liver.
People suffering from abnormal liver function, chronic arthritis, and excessive
chemical exposure usually have poor amino acid profile. Branched chain amino
acids (BCAA), valine, isoleucine and leucine, greatly aid detoxification and
liver function. Hence, supplementation with amino acids is critical for restoration
of appropriate amounts of amino acids, which help foster better health.
Ultimate Nutrition's Super
Whey Amino 2000 also contains sulfur-containing amino acids methionine and cysteine.
These amino acids have been shown to help prolong life span. Typically, as people
age, the amounts of these two amino acids decreases considerably. Since dietary
supplementation with cysteine prolonged the life span of guinea pigs, a report
in the New England Journal of Medicine suggested that maintaining optimal levels
of methionine and cysteine could potentially promote longevity in humans.
In summary, Ultimate Nutrition's
Super Whey Amino is a full-spectrum amino acid nutritional aid to that help
maintain optimal levels of amino acids in the bloodstream and promote good health
at any stage of life.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1.Do All Amino Acids Need
To Be taken in The Same Amounts?
No. Different amino acids should be taken in different amounts. This depends
upon the relative natural abundance of each amino acid in the body and amount
required for incorporation in proteins. Ultimate Nutrition's Super Amino 2000
has amino acids in the exact amounts that the body needs for optimal function.
2.How Well Are Amino Acids Absorbed?
Amino acids are efficiently absorbed and transported into the intestines. True,
there is intense competition among various amino acids for intestinal uptake,
since amino acids use the same transporters to ferry them across the intestinal
wall. If sufficient amounts of the necessary amino acids are available for absorption,
they are taken up in the correct ratios to serve the metabolic needs of the
body.
3.Do Amino Acids Cross The Blood Brain Barrier?
Yes! Amino acids cross the blood brain barrier using transporters similar to
those employed in intestinal absorption. The brain cells use the same amino
acids as those other tissues of the body. For example, the amino acid tryptophan
is converted to the neurotransmitter serotonin, which controls many different
functions of the brain.
4.If the Body Produces Peptides, Why Are Amino Acids Necessary?
The body does produce certain peptides, such as di-, tri- and tetra-peptides
(containing two, three and four amino acids, respectively), but they are a byproduct
of the digestive process or the breakdown of food in the body. As such, these
peptides are not available for incorporation into the proteins and, therefore,
do not serve as building blocks.
