Master Amino Acid Pattern (MAP): The True "Building Blocks" of Life

Proper Amino Acid Nutrition

The results I was getting with MAP weren't a dream. I was simply experiencing the benefits of proper amino acid nutrition and real anti-aging processes in action. I was surprised — I never thought I had not been meeting my essential amino acid requirements.

Let me explain.

The body's component parts are constantly being broken down and rebuilt. If the essential nutrients required to repair and rebuild the body are not available, diminishing physical performance, vitality, and health can result.

This is the crux of aging.

We have known for some time that amino acids provide the essential components for the body's structural foundation and the molecules that sustain life. Until recently, however, we didn't know the correct proportions required for human nutrition.

The essential amino acids must be available in the correct proportion for protein synthesis to occur. Inadequate protein/amino acid intake in the correct proportions may result from restricted diets, reduced appetite, illness, skipping meals, poor diet choices, or physically demanding work or exercise. This low protein intake can compromise your health by affecting the following:

bone cell synthesis

pH balance

red blood cell production

organ function

heart cell turnover rate

enzymes/hormones

neurotransmitters/mood

skin elasticity/muscle tone

sense of well-being/stamina

mobility/joint integrity

immune function/antibodies, etc.

To a degree never before possible, we can now provide the body daily with the correct amounts and proportions of amino acids to better help normalize protein synthesis and enhance performance in both the sick and well.
