Carnitine helps transport fatty acids into cellular structures where they can be utilized as part of normal energy metabolism. It plays an important role in cellular energy production.
Taurine is an amino acid-like compound naturally found throughout the body. It participates in normal cellular function and is involved in several physiological processes, including nervous system and cardiovascular function.
Proline is an amino acid used in the production of collagen, one of the body's primary structural proteins. Collagen is an important component of connective tissues found throughout the body.
Acetylcysteine is a form of the amino acid cysteine. It serves as a precursor to glutathione, an antioxidant produced naturally by the body that helps support normal cellular function.
Ornithine participates in the body's normal urea cycle, a metabolic pathway involved in processing nitrogen-containing compounds generated during normal protein metabolism.
Citrulline is an amino acid involved in the urea cycle and serves as a precursor to arginine within the body. It participates in normal amino acid metabolism and other physiological processes.
Amino acids contribute to numerous normal biological functions, including:
