Amino acids

Amino acids

Amino acids are probably the most important group of nutritional supplements for athletes. A lack of amino acids slows down protein synthesis, impairs recovery after training, and at the same time prevents the desired results from being achieved.
Amino acids are extremely important for building muscle mass, losing weight, or increasing strength or endurance.

BCAA (branched chain amino acids)

BCAA (Branched-Chain Amino Acids) - these are leucine, isoleucine and valine. These amino acids are essential, meaning the body cannot produce them on its own.

Benefits of BCAAs:

• Promotes protein synthesis and muscle recovery after training.
• Helps reduce muscle fatigue and catabolism during intense training.
• Can increase energy levels and improve physical performance.

EAAs (Essential Amino Acids)

EAA (Essential Amino Acids) includes all 9 essential amino acids required for protein synthesis.

Benefits of EPA:

• Ensures comprehensive muscle regeneration and growth.
• Very important when exercising on an empty stomach or following a low-protein diet.
• Helps improve the overall condition and recovery of the body.

Complex amino acids

Complex supplements are made up of various amino acids, both essential and non-essential.

Benefits of complex amino acids:

• Perfect for overall body recovery after physical exertion.
• Replenishes missing amino acids, especially if they are not enough in the diet.
• Promotes immune system function and overall well-being.

Glutamine

Glutamine is the most common amino acid found in the body, important for the immune system and intestinal health.

Glutamine benefits:

• Promotes muscle recovery and reduces inflammation after training.
• Helps strengthen immunity.
• Beneficial for intestinal health, especially during intense physical exertion.

Arginine / AAKG Arginine

AAKG (alpha-ketoglutarate) helps improve blood circulation and increase nitric oxide levels in the body.

Arginine benefits:

• Improves blood flow to the muscles, which helps you train more intensely.
• Promotes the supply of oxygen and nutrients to muscles.
• Can increase muscle "pump" during workouts.

Citrulline

Citrulline is an amino acid that helps reduce fatigue and improve endurance.

Citrulline benefits:

• Increases blood flow and improves oxygen supply to muscles.
• Reduces lactic acid buildup and fatigue during training.
• Improves endurance and strength.

Beta alanine

Beta-alanine helps produce carnosine, a substance that reduces muscle acidity during exercise.

Beta Alanine Benefits:

• Reduces muscle fatigue and increases endurance.
• Improves performance during short-term intense physical exertion.
• Promotes overall training effectiveness.

By choosing the right amino acids based on your goals, you will ensure better sports performance, faster recovery, and better well-being!
