Buy productWhat is L-Cysteine?
Cysteine is a non-essential sulfur amino acid, which plays a critical role in methionine, taurine and glutathione metabolism. It is also an important component of hair, nails and the keratin of the skin. Cysteine stabilizes protein structure and aids in the formation of collagen, being thereby indispensable to skin, hair and nail health.

Buy productL-Glutamine Powder 454g
Glutamine is considered to be a conditionally essential amino acid, which means that under certain circumstances, the body may require more glutamine than it can produce. In the body, glutamine functions as a major nitrogen transporter and is critical for the maintenance of healthy nitrogen balance.* Glutamine also acts as the primary fuel for the rapidly growing cells of the immune system and GI tract.* NOW® L-Glutamine Powder is a pure, free-form, non-essential amino acid and is the highest grade available. This product is sold by weight not volume. Natural color variation may occur in this product.

Buy productL-Lysine 500mg 100T
L-Lysine is an essential amino acid, which means that it cannot be manufactured by the body and must be obtained through the diet or by supplementation. Lysine is necessary for the production of all protein in the body including hormones, enzymes, and antibodies, as well as carnitine and collagen, which is the structural protein forming all connective tissue such as skin, tendon, and bone. L-Lysine also plays a major role in calcium absorption. Some evidence suggests that L-Lysine supplementation may help to support a healthy immune system as well as proper cardiovascular function.

Buy productLysine pure powder
Lysine is an essential amino acid that must be obtained through the diet or through supplementation. Lysine is necessary for the production of all proteins in the body and is required for the maintenance of the structural proteins collagen and elastin, which form all connective tissue such as skin, tendon and bone. Lysine is also a precursor to carnitine, which is needed for fat metabolism and energy production. In addition, lysine may help to support a healthy immune system and proper cardiovascular function.

Buy productWhat is Sulfur Amino Acid with Vitamin B-6 L-Methionine?
Sulfur Amino Acid with Vitamin B-6 L-Methionine is an essential amino acid, which means that it cannot be manufactured by the body and must be obtained through the diet or by supplementation. L-Methionine supports the production of the cellular radical scavenger glutathione, and thereby assists in natural detoxification processes.* In the body, L-Methionine can also be converted into SAMe (S-Adenosyl Methionine), a compound that supports healthy joints.* Furthermore, the human body relies on ingested sulfur amino acids, such as L-Methionine, for the synthesis of protein, as well as for biologically active sulfur.*

Buy productWhat is L-Ornithine?
Ornithine is a non-essential amino acid that plays a central role in the urea cycle, functioning along with Arginine and Citrulline to rid the body of ammonia, a by-product of protein metabolism. Because Ornithine is converted into Arginine, it can help to maintain healthy Arginine levels in the body. Ornithine can also be converted into other amino acids, such as citrulline, proline, and glutamate, as well as creatine, an important muscular energy source.

Read moreWhat is L-Theanine?
Theanine is a unique amino acid found naturally in the tea plant (Camellia sinensis). Theanine promotes relaxation while maintaining alertness and promotes healthy cognitive function. Theanine may also support healthy vascular function through this relaxing effect. This product has twice the L-Theanine (200 mg per capsules) as in our regular strength product (100 mg per capsule).Natural colour variation may occur in this product. -
Read moreWhat is L-Tyrosine?
L-Tyrosine is a conditionally indispensable amino acid required for the production of the neurotransmitters dopamine, adrenaline, and noradrenaline, as well as for the skin pigment, melanin.* Noradrenaline (norepinephrine) and adrenaline (epinephrine) are the main actors in the body’s response to acute stress and, along with dopamine, help to support a positive mood and mental alertness.* In addition, L-Tyrosine is especially critical for the normal function of the thyroid gland.* The L-Tyrosine used in this product is Pharmaceutical Grade. Natural colour variation may occur in this product. -
