Essential amino acids
-
9 essential amino acids
-
-
-
Lysine (Lys)
Vital for collagen formation, which is important for skin, cartilage, and connective tissue.
-
Methionine (Met)
A precursor for S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), involved in methylation reactions.
Necessary for the synthesis of cysteine (conditionally essential) and creatine, and also important in detoxification.
Phenylalanine (Phe)
Precursor for neurotransmitters like dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine.
-
Converted into tyrosine, which is involved in thyroid hormone production.
Threonine (Thr)
Crucial for protein structure and function, especially in collagen, elastin, and enamel proteins.
-
-
Valine (Val)
Important for muscle growth, tissue repair, and energy production
One of the three branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), along with leucine and isoleucine, which are particularly important for muscle metabolism.
