Perfect Aminos combine essential amino acids like glutamine, taurine, citruline and vitamin B6 to support endurance athletes by optimising both physical performance and recovery. Unlike other protein powders, Perfect Aminos are utilized 99% for anabolic purposes and enter the bloodstream within 23 minutes – significantly faster than any other protein powders!

Protein powders typically only use about 2-4% for building protein. The remainder is converted into sugar and fat which causes insulin spikes and fat storage.

The Digestibility of Amino Acids

Digestibility of dietary protein refers to the ratio of amino acids that are absorbed and utilized by our bodies. This rate can differ significantly between foods; some such as whey are quickly absorbed with high digestibility coefficients while rice and wheat products tend to take much longer for absorption, with lower digestibility coefficients.

Amino acid digestibility can be affected by factors like the amino acid profile of feed, processing methods and environmental conditions. Threonine and lysine have the lowest digestibility among indispensable amino acids found in oilseed meals and grain legumes; on the other hand, phenylalanine levels are highest among wheat middlings, rice polishings and maize drench products. Furthermore, food digestion may also be affected by bacteria produced within the caeca-colon, where certain amino acids do not get absorbed before being excreted out as excreta (Jamroz et al 2001).

Apparent ileal protein digestibility can be adjusted to account for endogenous secretions by subtracting the total content of amino acids from their concentration in faeces – this method is known as standardised protein digestibility or true ileal digestibility.

Problems arise with this approach because nitrogen in faeces contains both amino acid nitrogen and nonamino acid nitrogen that cannot be distinguished, making nitrogen digestibility the standard for measuring protein quality – something which could give rise to misleading results in comparisons of amino acid digestibilities between foods or ingredients, or even between samples from within an ingredient itself.

How the Body Absorbs and Utilizes Amino Acids

As protein is digested, its amino acids are absorbed into a special cellular pool for use as building blocks in proteins and other biological molecules containing nitrogen such as DNA and RNA, energy generation, muscle development and outsourced to other tissues (for instance glycogen or triglycerides in liver or adipose tissue).

Because of this, it is essential that an adequate supply of high-quality dietary protein be available to meet the body’s demands for strength and recovery. Unfortunately, digestion of protein can often be slow and inefficient, negatively affecting strength gains as well as physical recovery.

Digestion produces large quantities of unusable amino acids which may then be excreted as waste or stored for future use. Furthermore, foods rich in proinflammatory amino acids like methionine can often lack anti-inflammatory amino acids like those found in Perfect Aminos such as glycine and proline that act to soothe inflammation.

Perfect Aminos is an innovative protein powder with no fillers, coatings or additives – and is 100% vegan, non-GMO, gluten-free, sugar-free, dairy-free and kosher! Each serving of Perfect Aminos delivers highly absorbable essential amino acid blends in optimal ratios and forms that the body can use to build protein and collagen for muscles, skin, hair, nails, tendons organs nerves endocrine function ligaments as well as electrolytes and taurine to optimize hydration while supporting energy metabolism necessary for long endurance activities.

The Importance of Quality Sources

Since your body can only use certain amino acids for protein synthesis, any excesses will be converted to sugar or fat and lead to unwanted weight gain instead of muscle development. That’s why most low-quality protein powders lead to unwanted weight gain instead of muscle. But PERFECT AMINOS stands out by using pharmaceutical-grade, crystalline amino acids with nucleic acid building blocks that optimize protein synthesis as well as taurine, an antioxidant that prevents against long-term endurance training damage while simultaneously helping maintain fluid balance and maintaining fluid equilibrium in between endurance training sessions.

PERFECT AMINOS contains pure essential amino acids – the building blocks of protein – in an optimal ratio and form that are up to 99% utilized by human bodies to synthesize new protein and collagen, fully absorbed into bloodstream within 23 minutes, no matter the state of digestive systems. Furthermore, electrolytes help optimize intracellular hydration while supporting absorption of other nutrients, and nucleic acid building blocks assist protein synthesis at genetic level and enhance natural performance potential of body systems.

ESN Perfect Aminos are designed specifically to meet the needs of endurance athletes who prefer reducing or forgoing carbohydrates during training, or who require a superior source of protein than whey. Their formula features all of the same essential amino acid blend as its original version as well as taurine, glycine and nucleic acid building blocks for enhanced protein utilization as well as electrolytes to promote cell hydration and fluid balance.

The Role of Amino Acids

Maximum amino acid intake is essential to protein synthesis, muscle development and tissue regeneration as well as numerous cellular processes in our bodies. Since they cannot be synthesized by ourselves alone, they must be consumed through diet.

Amino acid metabolism disorders can have a dramatic impact on individuals. They have been linked with cancer, cardiovascular disease and diabetes – as well as being controlled by amino acid transporters whose proteins aid cellular uptake of amino acids for absorption into cells as part of nutrient absorption processes that play key roles in creating proteins, fats, carbohydrates and hormones.

Perfect Aminos provides essential amino acids in their precise ratio as required by your body, with up to 99% being utilized anabolistically compared with animal, dairy and vegetable proteins which only yield up to 30% utilization for anabolism. Furthermore, Perfect Aminos includes nucleic acid building blocks to guide protein synthesis processes as well as support genetic health and performance.

ESN Perfect Aminos was specifically developed to meet the needs of endurance athletes. Combining an EAA blend with glutamine, taurine, proline, citruline and electrolytes helps maximise performance and recovery during training and rest periods.

This high-quality protein source supports muscle building, immune health and recovery after training. Ideal as a pre, intra or post workout supplement to maximise performance and support optimal muscle growth.
