The Sports Amino-9 Essentials EAA Powder from NOW Foods is an excellent supplement of high-quality free-form amino acids. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and are essential for the function of all cells, tissue repair, and the production of enzymes and neurotransmitters.

The body uses 20 amino acids to construct proteins, but the nine essential amino acids cannot be produced by the human body and must be provided through the diet to ensure proper protein synthesis and overall health.

Specifically:

• Individuals with restricted diets or poor digestion may not get enough essential amino acids from their diet.
• NOW® Sports Amino-9 Essentials contains all 9 essential amino acids in a superior free-form state.
• The amino acid ratios are suggested by the National Academy of Sciences.
