L-Histidine is an amino acid used to develop and maintain healthy
tissues in all parts of the body, particularly the myelin sheaths that coat
nerve cells and ensure the transmissions of messages from the brain to various
parts of the body.
Histidine is also found useful for treatment of mental disorders. To ensure
good mental and physical health, histidine levels in the body must be balanced. Histidine also acts as a natural detoxifier, protecting
against radiation damage, and removing heavy metals from the system. Histidine
is crucial to the production of both
red and white blood cells.
Sources of histidine can be found in many high protein foods such as meat, dairy
products, grains such as rice, wheat, and rye. Most health experts agree that
although the body manufactures its own histidine, it is easy for natural
supplies to run short. The chronically ill, post-surgery, or arthritic
individual should consider using supplements with this amino acid.
Dietary sources that include this amino acid include dairy foods, meat, grains,
mushrooms, and leafy vegetables. Since meat is by far the most superior source,
vegetarians may want to take supplements. Symptoms of threonine deficiency
include agitation, confusion, digestion difficulties and fatty liver.
Amino acids promote the production of various neurotransmitters and enzymes critically needed in brain metabolism. Amino acids allow smooth, balanced cognition and fluid transition from thought to disciplined action. Aid in the reduction of stress, frustration and cognitive overload.
Amino acids are the building blocks of protein in the body, they are essential
for the synthesis of structural protein, enzymes and some hormones and
neurotransmitters. Amino acids also affect exercise metabolisms.
There are 20 different amino acids that are
needed by the body to create the various proteins needed for body
growth and repair. Of these 20, 11 are created by the body and the
remaining nine, which are called “essential amino acids,” cannot be produced by the
body. The nine essential amino acids therefore must come from diet. Histidine,
isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine,
tryptophan, and valine are essential amino acids. The nonessential
amino acids are arginine, alanine, asparagine, aspartic acid,
carntitine, cysteine, glutamine, glutamic acid, glycine, proline,
serine, and tyrosine. All 20 amino acids are necessary for health.
Below are some of the major functions amino
acids are involved in;
_ They empower vitamins and minerals to do their specific jobs correctly.
_ Some amino acids can pass through the blood-brain barrier which exists to
maintain the health of the brain, the brain’s chemistry and its processes.
_ Act as neurotransmitters or precursors; some are needed to send and receive
messages.
_ Aid in communication with nerve cells in other parts of the body.
Foods high in protein, such as meat and
poultry, fish, eggs, and dairy products, are the richest dietary
sources of the essential amino acids.
