EAA – a complex source of essential amino acids important for building and maintaining muscle mass
EAA is a complex dietary supplement and a great source of essential amino acids, which have a number of important functions in the body. They are used mainly in the formation process of proteins, which act as the main building blocks of muscle mass. Apart from this, essential amino acids are also involved in the production of hormones, enzymes, and other biologically active substances. As such, they are essential for the proper functioning of metabolism and the digestive system. The catch is, the body is unable to produce them on its own, and so we are completely dependent on their intake from either diet or supplements.
This product contains all essential amino acids, each of which has its own specific role to perform. Perhaps the most well-know from among them are the branched chain amino acids (BCAAs), which include leucine, isoleucine, and valine. These have an indispensable role, particularly in the process of growing and regenerating muscle mass. BCAAs themselves are quick to digest, and can thus also serve as a source of energy during sports activity. Thanks to this, they are able to protect the muscles from being burned for energy.
However, lysine is also crucial in the formation of proteins and building of muscle mass, while also being involved in the optimal absorption of calcium. Methionine is then, in turn, necessary for the growth of all bodily tissues and the absorption of both zinc and selenium. Next we have threonine, which is important for the production of collagen and elastin. These substances are a critical part of the skin and ensure its elasticity. Another amino acid contained in this product is phenylalanine, which is important for the production of hormones and neurotransmitters, such as dopamine, which affects mood, thinking and other brain functions.
Tryptophan boasts a similar function, and is a precursor of a neurotransmitter called serotonin. The latter contributes to the regulation of sleep, mood, and appetite. Among the ingredients, you will also find histidine, which is also no less significant for the production of certain enzymes and hormones. It is considered essential, especially during childhood. That said, even adults may find that its natural production might sometimes not be enough.
EAA has a wide range of uses due to its properties. During the day, you can use it to supplement substances that are necessary for your health, appearance and physical performance. However, you can also use this supplement after a strength or endurance training, either on its own or as part of a recovery drink. It comes in the form of a soluble powder, so all you need is to mix it in a shaker with water. Last but not least, you can enjoy it in a number of delicious flavours.
