Frequently asked question About Amino Acids

What are amino acid supplements used for?

They support muscle recovery, immune health, mental clarity, gut function, and stress regulation depending on the type of amino acid.

Who should take amino acids?

Athletes, people under stress, those with gut or immune issues, and anyone looking to improve focus, sleep, or recovery.

When is the best time to take amino acids?

Timing depends on the goal. For recovery, take post-workout. For sleep or stress, evening is ideal. Follow specific product instructions.

Yes. Many amino acids work synergistically — for example, combining L-Theanine with L-Glycine or L-Glutamine with L-Lysine.

Do amino acid supplements have side effects?

They’re generally well-tolerated. Stick to recommended dosages and consult a healthcare provider if pregnant, breastfeeding, or on medication.
