This guide to the practical use of free-form amino acids for enhanced health and well-being argues that a shortage of amino acids causes the body to degenerate and produce a wide range of distress symptoms, from fatigue, irritability and insomnia to premature ageing. The author explains that the correct use of amino acids has the power to heighten well-being, soothe pain and restore mental balance. The text begins with an introduction of free-form amino acids, which describes their role and success. Individual amino acids are then examined in a wide range of health situations, such as slimming, anxiety, depression, heart disease, alcoholism and hypertension. The text outlines the combinations used for each problem and includes a sample programme. The book concludes with a questionnaire designed to help readers work out their individual needs.
