Amino Acids

Amino acids are the fundamental building blocks of proteins and play a crucial role in the human body. Around 20% of our body is made up of proteins, and amino acids are vital for nearly all biochemical processes. They support cellular metabolism, act as an energy source, and serve as messengers in cell communication.

For optimal performance, recovery, and well-being, it is important to get enough amino acids through diet or supplementation. At Newtraceuticals, we offer a wide range of high-quality amino acid supplements. Curious which one suits you best? Feel free to contact us for personalized advice.

Amino acids: what are they?

Amino acids are the fundamental building blocks of proteins and play a central role in various processes in the body. Twenty different amino acids are involved in protein synthesis. Nine of these are considered essential: the body cannot produce them and must therefore be obtained through food or supplements. A varied diet or targeted supplementation allows these essential nutrients to be absorbed efficiently.

Functions and roles within the body

Amino acids support muscle tissue development, enzyme and hormone production, and signal transmission in the nervous system. Some amino acids, such as BCAAs (leucine, isoleucine, and valine), are used directly by muscle cells. Others, such as L-theanine or N-acetylcysteine, are found in specific food sources or supplements and are often chosen for specific applications. A balanced intake helps the body function optimally.
