Amino acids

Glycine is a conditionally essential amino acid that works as both an inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmitter. Glycine is chemically one of the simplest and at the same time most ubiquitous of all amino acids. It is found in proteins of all life forms,

Taurine is the most abundant intracellular amino acid in the human body and is found particularly in the excitable tissues of the central nervous system, where it is thought to have a regulating effect and can help to reduce stress. It is also used as a h

Tryptophan is an essential amino acid and a precursor of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that is associated with positive mood, relaxation and restful sleep. Adequate supplies of tryptophan are required to ensure optimum serotonin levels, and this can be ac

Life Extension Theralac®, 30 Capsules + Truflora, 32 V-caps

L-Tyrosine is an amino acid which can be converted in the brain and adrenal glands into dopamine, norepinephrine and epinephrine (adrenaline), hormones that are depleted as a result of stress, overwork and certain types of medication. It is therefore an e

Life Extension Acetyl-l-carnitine Arginate

L-Theanine is the predominant amino acid in tea (natural tea extract), which produces calming effects in the brain by increasing serotonin and dopamine levels and blocking the binding of L-glutamic acid to glutamate receptors. This can work as a natural s

Glutamine is the most abundant free amino acid circulating in the blood and stored in the skeletal muscles. The diverse amino acid is involved in numerous vital functions, including rapid division of cells, including those found in the gut and immune syst

Optimized Carnitine with GlycoCarn® contains carnitine, a natural amino acid derivative that is found in almost every cell of the human body, helping to burn fatty acids to produce fuel for the mitochondria, which are responsible for the production of cel

Lysine is an essential amino acid necessary for growth and to help maintain nitrogen balance in the body. It may help prevent glycation, the bonding of a glucose or sugar and a protein or lipid molecule, a process accelerated by raised blood-sugar levels.

L-Arginine is a semi-essential amino acid involved in numerous areas of human biochemistry including ammonia detoxification, hormone secretion and immune modulation. Although amino acids can be manufactured by the human body, the biosynthetic pathway does
