Summary

Amino acids form the proteins that make up our muscles, organs, hormones, hair, skin, nails. They act as the catalyst for nearly every chemical process in your body. They support processes like protein synthesis, muscle gain, brain function, hormone regulation, metabolism, and more.  Angelo Kelly is explaining the critical role of protein and essential amino acids for strength, energy, and just about every function in your body. 

Angelo is the co-founder and CEO of Kion - creator of my amino acid supplement of choice. Angelo is answering all of our questions, including...

  • What are amino acids? What do they do in the body?
  • How do amino acids help improve energy?
  • In what ways can amino acids help women in perimenopause or menopause?
  • Why is eating enough protein (and AAs) so important for women?
  • What are the specific benefits to taking amino acids over the age of 40?
  • Are BCAAs good for you?
  • What about collagen and creatine?
  • Should we take amino acids if we aren't working out?
  • Are amino acids just for athletes?
