PHENYLALANINE
Phenylalanine helps to create other amino acids like tyrosine.
Do you know....Tyrosine is used to help produce neurotransmitters such as dopamine (the happy chemical).

Phenylalanine food sources -such as in tofu, pumpkin seeds, peanuts, wheat germ, quinoa, wild rice, as well as certain seeds and nuts.

On average, for every 100g firm tofu eaten, expect to get around 95% of the recommended dietary intake of Phenylalanine.]]> 2021-04-14 06:14:32 UTC https://padlet.com/bm2165/dz8wvoy7whig5ytk/wish/1415157005 Amino acid in my diet... "Oh...My Happy Chemical" bm2165 https://padlet.com/bm2165/dz8wvoy7whig5ytk/wish/1415166907 1. Without sufficient phenylalanine your body could experience cognitive dysfunction, depression, and appetite loss.

2. Since threonine is found largely in the central nervous system, studies have shown that it can be helpful in treating different types of depression.

3. Tryptophan produce Serotonin helps regulate appetite, sleep, mood, and pain, and also acts as a natural sedative.

4. The sulfur found in methionine acts as an antioxidant for the body by protecting the cells from free radical damage.

5. Lysinel -by producing a variety of hormones, enzymes and antibodies, lysine helps build a healthy immune system.

6. Histidine- helps facilitate growth, the creation of blood cells, and tissue repair.

7.  Valine can help stimulate activity, while maintaining mental and physical stamina. That’s because it helps support the central nervous system by keeping it calm.

8. Leucine also helps to promote healing of muscles following trauma, or severe levels of stress.

9. Isoleucine is also found to help blood clot formation.]]> 2021-04-14 06:19:09 UTC https://padlet.com/bm2165/dz8wvoy7whig5ytk/wish/1415166907 Amino acid bm2165 https://padlet.com/bm2165/dz8wvoy7whig5ytk/wish/1415173026 Amino acids are known as the building blocks of proteins. While the body needs 20 different amino acids to grow and function properly, there are 9 essential amino acids that your body can’t produce without food.

Each of the 9 essential amino acids have unique functions. Some essential amino acids are important for muscle development, while others help regulate mood. So, even though we may not all be fitness fanatics looking to pack in the amino acids to help build muscle mass, everyone can benefit from eating a healthy diet with the right essential amino acids. 
Here are 9 essential amino acids, what roles they play, and where to find them in food. Brace yourself for some serious scientific terminology.]]> 2021-04-14 06:21:53 UTC https://padlet.com/bm2165/dz8wvoy7whig5ytk/wish/1415173026 Treating depression? (Merawat kemurungan) bm2165 https://padlet.com/bm2165/dz8wvoy7whig5ytk/wish/1415179237 2. THREONINE
Threonine plays a key role for maintaining healthy skin and teeth. 
  • Once in the body, threonine changes into a chemical called glycine. Glycine help produce elastin, collagen, and muscle tissue.
  • When combined with methionine (another amino acid), glycine helps process fatty acids and helps prevent liver failure
Animal sources of threonine include lean beef, lamb, cheese. For every 100g of lean beef or lamb there’s about 165% of your recommended dietary intake.

Tryptophan is crucial to serotonin production.
A precursor to melatonin, a hormone which helps regulate our sleep. As many of us know, having a good amount of sleep is crucial for your body’s immune response and nervous system function.

Seeds and nuts (specifically pumpkin and squash seeds) also have a large amount of tryptophan. For every 100g of seeds there’s you’ll be getting roughly 206% recommended dietary intake of tryptophan.

The sulfur found in methionine acts  remove other heavy metals like lead and mercury in the body. Without sufficient sulfur in the body, people can be more susceptible to arthritis, damaged tissue, and have trouble healing.

Methionine also helps to break down fat and prevent fatty deposits in the liver. Too much of this amino acid though, can lead to atherosclerosis, or fatty deposits in the arteries.

Methionine food sources
Animal sources include tuna, salmon, shrimp, beef, and lamb. For every 100g of tuna you will find 122% of your recommended daily intake of methionine.

How it functions in the body?
It 's has a crucial role in the production of collagen. Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body that gives structure to ligaments, tendons, skin, hair, cartilage, and organs.

Lysine is also used to help the body absorb calcium, iron, and zinc. These are important minerals for immune health.
Lysine food sources
  • Red meat provides the most amount of lysine. For every 100g of beef, expect 157% of your recommended daily intake for lysine.
  • Plant-based sources include lima beans, avocados, dried apricots and mangoes, beetroots, leeks, potatoes, and peppers.

Histidine helps facilitate growth, the creation of blood cells, and tissue repair. How it functions in the body:

  • Ultimately, the body metabolizes histidine into histamine. Histamine is a neurotransmitter that is vital to immune response, digestion and sleep-wake cycles.
  • It also maintains the myelin sheath.

Histidine food sources
  • Great sources of histidine include apples, pomegranates, alfalfa, beets, carrots, celery, cucumber, garlic, radish, and spinach. For 100g of dried bananas will provide you with around 48% recommended daily intake of histidine.

one of the three BCAAs, is often used in supplement form with other BCAAs to build muscle mass in athletes. It’s role in the body:

Stimulates muscle growth and regeneration, and is involved in energy production.

Valine food sources

  • Valine is found most abundantly in red meats, dairy products, soy products, mushrooms, and peanuts. For about 100g of low-fat yogurt (depending on make) you will get about 26% recommended daily intake. Even a cup of milk would give you about 60% of your recommended daily intake of valine.

(membantu penyembuhan otot berikut trauma, atau tahap stres yang teruk) bm2165 https://padlet.com/bm2165/dz8wvoy7whig5ytk/wish/1415263082 8. LEUCINE
 is critical for protein synthesis and muscle repair. It has been argued that it is the most important amino acid to build muscle mass because it helps activate a signaling pathway that is responsible for stimulating protein synthesis. How it functions in the body:

  • It helps regulate blood sugar levels, stimulates wound healing and growth hormones.

Leucine food sources

  • You can find leucine in animal sources like cheese, beef, lamb, poultry, gelatin, and collagen. You get about 75% recommended daily intake of Leucine for every 100g of chicken consumed.
  • Plant-based sources include quinoa, sunflower seeds, pistachios, peanuts, corn, wheat germ, and brown rice. Spirulina is a fantastic source of leucine, giving around 181% of your recommended daily intake per 100g.

Isoleucine is heavily concentrated in muscle tissue, and plays a vital for muscle metabolism, immune function, hemoglobin production and energy regulation.
Isoleucine food sources
  • Animal-based sources include beef, tuna, cod, haddock, and yogurt.
  • Plant-based sources include oats, lentils, spirulina, sunflower and sesame seeds, and in seaweed. For 100g of wheat, you get about 16% recommended daily intake of isoleucine.

Mengurangkan keletihan bm2165 https://padlet.com/bm2165/dz8wvoy7whig5ytk/wish/1415296995 Fun Fact: The following three essential amino acids are known as branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs). They make up a large portion of the body’s total amino acid pool (about 35-40%).

Not only can BCAAs help build muscle protein and produce energy, they also help to reduce fatigue.]]> 2021-04-14 07:13:23 UTC https://padlet.com/bm2165/dz8wvoy7whig5ytk/wish/1415296995 Reference : bm2165 https://padlet.com/bm2165/dz8wvoy7whig5ytk/wish/1415355808
