Amino Acids

Amino acids are what your body uses to build muscle, repair tissue, make enzymes and hormones, and keep everything running. While you get some from food, supplements can help when diet alone isn’t enough or when you have specific performance goals.

Your body can’t make nine essential amino acids on its own—you have to get them from food or supplements. BCAAs (branched-chain amino acids) are especially important if you work out because muscles use them directly during training, and they cut down recovery time. L-glutamine supports gut health and immune function. L-arginine improves blood flow for better cardiovascular health.

These aren’t just for bodybuilders. If you train regularly, amino acids prevent muscle breakdown and reduce soreness. Recovering from injury? They help tissue repair. Getting older? They combat natural muscle loss. Our staff can help match the right products to your activity level and goals.
