A broad-spectrum peptide-bound amino acid supplement with Vitamin B6, providing foundational support for energy, brain, and mood through essential building blocks.
Lake Avenue Nutrition Total Amino provides 2.8g of peptide-bound amino acid sources, along with 13mg of Vitamin B6. Amino acids are fundamental to almost every biological process, acting as precursors for neurotransmitters, enzymes, and structural proteins. The 'peptide-bound' form is often considered more bioavailable than free-form amino acids, which is a potential advantage. This makes it beneficial for general health, energy, and indirectly for brain health and mood support through neurotransmitter synthesis. The inclusion of B6 is synergistic, as B6 is crucial for amino acid metabolism. While the specific quantities of individual amino acids within the 'blend' are not disclosed, the total quantity is substantial enough to provide broad support.
- Provides a wide range of amino acids, essential for numerous bodily functions.
- Peptide-bound form may offer superior absorption compared to free-form amino acids.
- Includes Vitamin B6, a key cofactor for amino acid metabolism.
- Good price per serving for a comprehensive amino acid product.
- The exact quantities of individual amino acids within the 'blend' are not disclosed.
