Amino acids are protein building components that are required for a variety of bodily processes.
They are classed as "essential" or "non-essential", with essential amino acids indicating they cannot be synthesized by the body and must be obtained from food to maintain excellent overall health.
The body may convert amino acids into hormones, enzymes, neurotransmitters, antibodies, and nutrition transporters.
A low intake of essential amino acids raises the body's requirement for non-essential amino acids, which can be obtained by food or supplementation. Meat, beans, cheese, and eggs are foods that help you get more amino acids
