Amino acids, the building blocks of life

Amino acids are the basic components of proteins. When we talk about proteins in food, we are actually talking about chains of amino acids that the body breaks down and reassembles as needed.

Eight amino acids are essential, which means that we must obtain them from our diet. Amino-8 contains exactly these eight amino acids, each individually and precisely dosed, which keeps the composition clear and concise, without additional ingredients.

Only the vital ones!

Most people in Germany consume enough protein overall. Too much protein can even put a strain on the body, especially the kidneys.
A completely different question is whether people are consuming the right proteins, or rather the right amino acids.
Of the 20 amino acids from which proteins are formed, we can easily produce 12 ourselves, so they are not important.
It becomes more critical when we consume too few of the 8 amino acids that we cannot produce ourselves.
This goes so far that it is not even enough to take in more than enough of 7 of these amino acids, but too little of the eighth. This would also lead to health problems in a short space of time. This is why this one essential amino acid, which is the least abundant in a food, is also called the "limiting amino acid" in nutritional science. A diet on any given day that contains too little of this one amino acid, even if all the others were present, would be worthless for the body.

It is therefore important to combine the right foods, e.g. potatoes with egg. One of these foods would not be perfect because, for example, potatoes have too much of amino acid A but not enough of B, while eggs have too much of B but not enough of A. If you were to eat only potatoes one day and only eggs the next, you would harm your body because it cannot simply store the surplus for the next day. Unlike for fat, we have no body stores for amino acids.
But both foods mixed together make the perfect diet that you could live on for months - if it wasn't too monotonous in the long run.

But if you don't have this expertise or can't eat many foods for certain reasons, e.g. if you're vegan, you can still play it safe and make sure you're perfectly supplied with all 8 essential amino acids: e.g. with Echt Vital Amino-8!

The advantages of Amino-8:

• All eight essential amino acids in pure form: Amino-8 provides only the eight essential amino acids in individual dosages, not a combination of proteins, but a pure mixture of essential amino acids without any other ingredients.
• Produced from plants by fermentation: The amino acids are extracted from plants and produced by fermentation, using GMO-free maize as the starting material.
• Free from magnesium stearate, fillers or preservatives: The formula is deliberately kept simple and contains no common anti-caking agents such as magnesium stearate, no fillers and no preservatives.
• 100% vegan and laboratory tested: Amino-8 is vegan and its purity and quality are laboratory tested, ensuring traceability of composition and quality control.
• Manufactured in Germany under pharmaceutical control: Production takes place in Germany under pharmaceutical supervision, which ensures high standards in processes and documentation.
• Effective light protection thanks to amber glass: Amber glass effectively protects the contents from light, which is a real quality advantage over plastic or clear glass.

The pack contains 150 tablets, enough for 30 days. This means you can plan your intake well and need to reorder less frequently.
