The daily protein requirement is really the body's need for amino acids
Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. There are 22 known amino acids of which eight have been deemed essential. Dietary amino acids are classified as either essential or non-essential. Both types are used to assemble hormones, neurotransmitters (chemical messengers), antibodies, enzymes, and nutrient carriers.

Broad Spectrum Amino Acids contains seven of the essential amino acids. Use of the eighth one, tryptophan is no longer permitted in the U.K. and therefore must be obtained from foods such as fish, chicken and algae.

Broad Spectrum Amino Acids can be used as a supplement for protein malabsorption. Ideal for individuals following inadequate dietary regimes. Can be used in convalescence. May be used during periods of extreme physical activity. BCCA (Branched Chain Amino Acids: leucine, isoleucine and valine), act as building blocks for tissue proteins, and play an important part in energy metabolism; they are also precursors of other amino acids. Glutamic Acid is involved in the metabolism of sugars and fats. It combines with poisonous ammonia in the brain to produce glutamine, a brain fuel which affects brain functions, improving alertness and mood. Methionine is essential to help support growth and development. It is required for protein synthesis and in liver detoxification pathways. L-Glutathione is a natural sulphur-containing peptide formed by linking three amino acids: glutamic acid, cysteine and glycine. It acts in antioxidant and detoxification systems and is also involved in helping amino acid transport across cell membranes. L-Phenylalanine helps produce neurotransmitters, the brain's chemical messengers. It is a precursor to tyrosine which is used to manufacture certain hormones, including adrenalin (epinephrine), noradrenalin (norapinephrine), L-dopa and dopamine.
