Amino acids: The building blocks of life and precursors to Neurotransmitters

Amino acids are building blocks for proteins. Protein is the most second abundant substance in the body after water. Proteins form the structure for genes, blood, tissue, muscle, collagen, skin, hairs and nail. Amino acids are the constituent for various hormones, disease-fighting cells, antibodies and, neurotransmitters also. Uses of Amino acids are not limited to repair and regeneration of protein structures. But they play an important role in our Brain Health. All of the above-mentioned substances require constant regeneration throughout life. This is the reason why we need protein on a daily basis. Neurotransmitters Dopamine, Acetylcholine, Epinephrine, Norepinephrine, GABA, and serotonin are the primary Neurotransmitters. They are chemical messengers in the brain. High or low levels vastly affect human behaviour. Amino acids affect our feelings, mood & emotions....
