What are Essential Amino Acids (EAAs)?
Amino Acids are the building blocks of proteins. Dietary protein is needed in order to supply amino acids for our body’s growth and maintenance. Ten out of twenty amino acids are considered essential and the body does not make them. We need to get these Essential Amino Acids from the food chain. Hemp Seeds contain all 10 Essential Amino Acids and high levels of branched-chain amino acids, important for the development of lean body mass, as well as muscular repair. Hemp seeds have significant levels of Arginine, Histidine, Methionine and Cysteine, all of which are needed for vital enzyme production. Arginine and Histidine are also necessary for children’s growth.
