Description

Amino acids have many functions in the body. They are the building blocks for all body proteins—structural
proteins that build muscle, connective tissue including skin, bone and other structures, and functional proteins
in the form of thousands of metabolically active enzymes. Amino acids provide the body with the nitrogen that
is essential for growth and maintenance of all tissues and structures.

Aside from these general functions, individual amino acids also have specific functions in many aspects of
human physiology and biochemistry. Amino acids serve as precursors for many nitrogenous substances.
These include heme, purines, pyrimidines, hormones, and neuro-transmitters, including biologically active
peptides. L-Proline plays an important role in skin health and collagen formation as the body can convert
proline into hydroxyproline, which is used by the body to make into collagen.
