The Body’s Fundamental Building Blocks

Amino acids make up proteins found in every tissue of the body. They play a major role in nearly every chemical process that affects both physical and mental function. As a result, amino acids have more diverse functions than any other nutrient group, including:

• Cellular energy production
• Formation of ligaments, tendons, and bones
• Formation of antibodies
• Formation and regulation of enzymes and blood transport proteins
