Amino Acids in Prevention and Treatment

A selection for clinical practice

by Uwe Gröber and Prof. Dr. Klaus Kisters

Description

In contrast to vitamins and minerals, for a long time, science paid only scant attention to amino acids, but this all changed when scientists Robert F. Furchgott, Louis J. Ignarro and Ferid Murad received the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 1998 for their work on amino acids. Pharmacist Uwe Gröber, Head of the Academy for Micronutrient Medicine in Essen and Prof. Klaus Kisters, MD, Head of the Department of Medicine at St Anna Hospital in Herne – both experts in micronutrient medicine – have reviewed the subject and explain clearly and in practical terms:

■ The importance of individual amino acids for our health

■ How they are optimally used in combination with vitamins, minerals and trace elements

■ Which diseases can be positively influenced in this way.

■ Effects on colds and influenza, cold sores, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, ADHD as well as stress and burnout are examined in more detail.

A further chapter is devoted to amino acids and their use in sportsmen and -women.
