what are amino acids?
Amino Acids are the building blocks of proteins, aka, they’re what protein turns into when broken down in your body. When you consume any type of protein in your diet, your body will digest it and break it down into amino acids. Without amino acids, your body won’t be able to function properly. They have many functions, like repairing and maintaining muscles, organs, nails, hair, skin, ligaments, connective tissues, glands, etc.
how do amino acids work?
Aminos serve as a critical source of muscle energy and nutrition for recovery. The very fibers that makeup muscles are themselves constructed from aminos. By nourishing your muscles with amino acids, they will perform better, recover faster and rebuild with more muscle tissue. This will lead to more calories burned and result in fat loss along with muscle toning.
