Designs For Health Amino Acid Supreme 360Grams

Amino Acid SupremeTM is a high potency, balanced, free-form essential amino acid formula in a great-tasting fruit punch flavoured powder for convenient and efficacious dosing. Because these amino acids are in their free form, they can be readily absorbed and utilized by the body. Amino acids are fundamental to a vast array of metabolic functions of the body. Insufficient amino acid status may be due to digestive dysfunction, dietary and lifestyle factors, or from conditions that affect proper functioning of the stomach, pancreas, liver or small intestine.

Amino acids in their free form are immediately available for absorption and can be put to metabolic use much more readily and rapidly than amino acids contained in dietary protein. This may be especially beneficial for individuals with compromised digestive function, those recovering from physical trauma, and those (such as the elderly) who may have difficulty consuming an adequate amount of complete protein. Alpha-ketoglutarate and vitamin B-6 (as pyridoxal-5- phosphate) are included for optimal absorption and efficacy.

AMINO ACID SUPREMETM MAY BE USEFUL FOR:

• People whose diets are insufficient in quality protein
• Patients with cachexia from chronic illness or GI malabsorption
• Individuals who are in catabolic states due to stress or illness
• Those recovering from surgery or tissue trauma
• Individuals at risk of sarcopenia due to aging
• Elderly individuals with suboptimal digestive function
• People wanting better quality hair and nails
• Patients who have confirmed amino acid deficiencies on metabolic testing

Recommended Dose: Adults: Mix 12 g / 1 scoop well in 1-2 cups of water immediately before consumption per day or as directed by your health care practitioner. Dosing recommendations are given for typical use based on an average 150 pound healthy adult. Healthcare practitioners are encouraged to use clinical judgement with case-specific dosing based on intended goals, subject body weight, medical history, and concomitant medication and supplement usage. More aggressive dosing can be used in cases where a significant addition of muscle mass is desired or in confirmed amino acid deficiency states.
