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.

What’s the difference between essential and non-essential amino acids?

Essential amino acids must be obtained from diet or supplements. Non-essential ones are made by the body but may be required in higher amounts during stress or illness.

Are your amino acid supplements vegan?

Many of our products are vegan-friendly. Look for plant-based certifications on the label.

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.

Can I combine different amino acids?

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.

Can amino acids improve sleep?

Yes. L-Theanine and L-Glycine are known to enhance sleep quality and promote relaxation.

Are amino acids good for digestion?

Absolutely. L-Glutamine supports gut lining repair, and L-Glycine aids detox and liver health.

Do amino acids help build muscle?

Yes. L-Glutamine and L-Arginine in particular support muscle growth, recovery, and endurance.

Are amino acids suitable for kids or teens?

Some may be appropriate, but always consult a pediatric healthcare provider before use.

Can I take amino acids with other supplements?

Yes. They pair well with protein, magnesium, adaptogens, and immune support formulas.

Do you offer unflavored or easy-to-mix amino acid powders?

Yes. We carry both unflavored and flavored options, plus capsules for convenience.

Do your amino acids contain allergens like gluten or soy?

Most are free of common allergens. Check each product label or filter by “allergen-free” on our site.

Do amino acids help with skin and joint health?

Yes. L-Lysine and L-Glycine support collagen formation, which is key for healthy skin and joints.

How do I choose the right amino acid for my needs?

Use our subcategory filters or contact our support team for personalized advice based on your health goals.

Do amino acids support cognitive function?

Yes. L-Theanine is especially known for enhancing focus and reducing mental fatigue.

Can I take amino acids on an empty stomach?

Many are best absorbed on an empty stomach, but follow the label or consult your practitioner.
