Plant-based diets
Vegans and vegetarians must carefully curate their diets to ensure enough amino acid intake, as animal products tend to have significantly higher concentrations of amino acids. Essential amino acids cannot be produced by the body and can only be obtained through diet or supplementation.
Too little protein containing amino acids can lead to a number of health problems, including loss of muscle mass, weakened heart and respiratory system, and decreased immunity to illness.
Plant-based amino acid foods include:
- Tofu, Beans and Legumes
- Nuts and seeds
- Fruits and vegetables
- Whole grains
Diets including animal products
People who can consume meat and other animal products will have an easier time creating a diet enriched with amino acids, as these essential building blocks are readily found in animal-based protein sources.
Athletes and others who regularly push their physical limits can benefit greatly from high protein diets abundant with amino acids. Amino acids make up collagen, which is vital to tissue and muscle repair and recovery from strenuous exercise.
Amino acid animal product foods include:
- Red meats, pork, and poultry
- Fish and seafood
- Milk, cheese, and yogurt
Amino acid IV therapy – superior supplementation
Amino acids aren’t limited to foods; you can purchase over-the-counter supplements to help ensure you’re getting your daily intake. However, some amino acids in oral supplements are lost in the digestive process.
If you are struggling to get the amino acids you need through your diet, IV therapy may be an option worth considering. In IV therapy, amino acids, vitamins, and other nutrients are delivered directly into the bloodstream, ensuring a 100% absorption rate. This also allows the amino acids to start working more quickly, leaving you feeling refreshed and revitalized faster.
