  What are amino acids? Amino acids are the basic building blocks for all the body’s metabolic processes. They are also the building blocks for proteins that make up 20% of the human body. Cells, tissues, and muscles are made up of amino acids that give structure and store and transport nutrients. Amino acids are also essential for healing wounds and repairing tissue in hair, skin, bones and muscles.         What is amino acid therapy? Amino acid therapy is used to treat various diseases, but few people are aware that it can also treat mental disorders such as depression, insomnia, ADD, and anxiety. Amino acids can even be used to treat memory loss, weight gain, and addictive disorders.    Amino acids can treat mental disorders because they are the precursors of neurotransmitters (NTs), or chemicals in the brain. NTs control movement, sensation, memory, energy, and emotions. There are inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmitters, and the ...

Since we’re all more or less still in lockdown, we can spend more time exercising at home or outdoors (but stay away from other people). As your exercise regimen is done almost daily, you need more protein for energy and muscle upkeep. In fact, you will need specific types of proteins or amino acids for more exercise energy and muscle recovery.   Amino Acid Chains Proteins are made up of 20 amino acid chains. Nine of these essential amino acids cannot be produced by the body and need to be taken from our daily diet. Of these nine essential amino acids, the essential ones are the branched-chain amino acids. These provide fuel during long periods of exercise, such as for running or biking.    These three branched-chain amino acids are isoleucine, leucine, and valine.    Exercise Recovery Even if you’re not doing weight lifting, intense exercising like running, biking, Pilates, indoor HIIT, and the like can also cause damaged muscle tissue. Proteins and amino acids...

Forget the fancy labels and the latest fashions. When it comes to workout clothes, wear those that are comfortable, suitable for indoor or outdoor workouts, and may offer some protection during this time of the pandemic. And believe it or not, when you are sweating, the clothes you wear can make a difference in how you feel after exercising.   Choose “work” fabrics Some fabrics are designed to pull sweat away from your skin while others absorb it. Try out breathable Synthetic Fabrics that pull the sweat away from your skin. This helps perspiration evaporate quickly and keeps the body cool. This is good, especially if you’re exercising outdoors.   Cotton, on the other hand, is more suitable indoors since it absorbs sweat. Since sweat may evaporate slower indoors, you may feel heavy and wet after you exercise.   Avoid fabrics that don’t breathe, such as rubber-based or plastic-based materials. These fabrics neither absorb sweat nor allow it to evaporate. This will keep your...
