Amazing Power of amino acids cont…
Amino acid deficiency may be the result of protein malnutrition. Such deficiency is generally associated with a faulty diet, failure to digest or absorb adequately, stress conditions, infection, trauma, use of drugs, deficiency of other nutrients such as vitamins and minerals, and dysfunctions connected with the ageing process. Since amino acids perform such a major role in the structure and function of the body, in both health maintenance and disease, the importance of available tests to assess their relative presence cannot be underestimated. Tests not only disclose the nutritional and metabolic status of the patient, they also discover the effect of factors such as stress, trauma, and other drugs.
The deficiency conditions resulting from any of these causes can be corrected by supplementation of appropriate amino acids.
