amino acids

I would like to write a seperate article about one of the foods that have all essential, and even some non essential amino acids: green blue algae.
If the body does not receive sufficient acids, certain body tissues are cannibalized, often causing such problems as  premature aging, memory loss, poor intellectual performance and even depression. Blue-green algae contain all of the essential amino acids as well as most of the non essential amino acids, making them a complete protein supplement.Read more

We start with the essential amino acids , as our body can not make them, we have to be sure that we have them with our intake of food.
They are arginine (required  for the young, but not for adults), histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine.

We wrote about the minerals, the fatty acids , the vitamins and now we will write about the amino acids. 

Amino acids are critical to life, and have a variety of roles in metabolism. One particularly important function is as the building blocks of proteins,  which are linear chains of amino acids. Every protein is chemically defined by this primary structure, its unique sequence of amino acid residues, which in turn define the three-dimensional structure of the protein. Just as the letters of the alphabet can be combined to form an almost endless variety of words, amino acids can be linked together in varying sequences to form a vast variety of proteins.

Amino acids are very important in nutrition.Humans can produce 10 of the 20 amino acids. Read more
