What is AminoHealth™?
Amino acids play an important role in promoting protein synthesis and in energy production in both heart and skeletal-muscle systems. Athletes looking for improved endurance and reduced respiratory exchange ratio, people looking to reduce the impact of stress, Vegetarians or anyone else looking to further support the synthesis of protein for proper body function will find supplementation of amino acids of benefit. Our formula also includes Vitamin B-6 and Whey Protein concentrate.
Who Should Consider AminoHealth™?
There are several groups of people who can benefit from Amino Acid supplementation including:
- Athletes looking for improved endurance and reduced respiratory exchange ratio 4;
- People looking to reduce the impact of stress 18;
- Anyone else looking to further support the synthesis of protein for proper body function.
Purpose:
To aid in protein synthesis, essential for healthy heart and skeletal-muscle function, to support health immunity and to improve healthy response to stress.

Background on Amino Acids and other ingredients in AminoHealth™:
Amino acids play an important role in promoting protein synthesis and in energy production in both heart and skeletal-muscle systems. 3 Studies have shown that atheletes may benefit from amino acid supplementation.4
Amino Acids contain nitrogen, carbon,oxygen and hydrogen. Amino acids are the building blocks (monomers) that form protein. The body needs 20 amino acids to foster various proteins used in body tissues for growth and maintenance or repair due to injury or exercise. The body produces 11 of these amino acids, but 9 others (called the “essential amino acids”) come only from dietary or supplement sources.
One Serving of Amino Health Contains the Nine Essential Amino Acids:
- Histidine 4 mg
- Isoleucine 80 mg
- Leucine 110mg
- Lysine 56 mg
- Methionine* 46 mg
- Phenylalanine* 32 mg
- Threonine 44 mg
- Tryptophan** 20 mg of Whey Protein Concentrate
- Valine 80 mg
* These two Amino acids can be partially substituted for with cysteine and tyrosine respectively.
** Under U.S. law tryptophan can not be sold as a dietary supplement, it is however contained in whey protein and whey protein concentrate.
Supplementation of these amino acids will provide a normal adult with adequate amounts of amino acids.
Why include Whey Protein Concentrate
We have added Whey Protein Concentrate to this formula to provide additional whey protein for building healthy, lean muscle mass. It is our opinion, that there is no finer form of protein than whey protein.
Why include Vitamin B-6?
Crucial in amino acid production, Vitamin B-6 is also crucial in processing the essential amino acids supplied from diet or supplementation. Vitamin B-6 is the essential vitamin needed for processing and synthesizing amino acids.
