Glycine has been used with traditional antacids to treat stomach ulcers caused by excessive stomach acid. Glycine also helps with healing injuries to skin & connective tissues & production of bile salts which are important for digestion, particularly of fats. Glycine is also a component of GTF (Glucose Tolerance Factor) which helps insulin stabilise blood sugar.
L-Histidine has been used in the treatment of ulcers as far back as the 1930's. L-Histidine also plays an important role in the proper health of our skin. It is the direct precursor of urocanic acid, a compound found in our skin tissue. Urocanic acid is one of the major UV light absorbing compounds found in our skin.
L-Methionine is very important to many detoxification processes undertaken by our liver. It is most important to medicine as the solution to paracetamol poisoning.
Ornithine enhances wound healing & stimulates the immune system. This improves immune response to bacteria & viral agents. Ornithine is involved in the production of human growth hormone which in turn has an important role to play in the processes of growth & repair. Higher levels of growth hormone after exercise boost recovery rates from training which aids building & toning muscle tissue & loss of stored body fat.
