Calcium
Calcium is a vital nutrient found in various foods such as dairy products, certain vegetables, and many fortified items. Over 99% of the body's calcium is stored in the bones and teeth, predominantly as hydroxyapatite. The remaining calcium circulates in the blood, extracellular fluid, muscles, and other tissues, where it is essential for processes like nerve signaling, muscle contraction, vascular activities, glandular secretion, and maintaining cell membrane and capillary permeability. It also plays critical roles in enzyme reactions, respiration, kidney function, and blood clotting, and is involved in neurotransmitter and hormone release, amino acid uptake, vitamin B12 absorption, and gastrin secretion. Calcium balance changes with age: it is positive during periods of growth, stable in adulthood, and tends to become negative in older age. Calcium loss occurs through feces, urine, sweat, and shedding skin cells. In women, reduced estrogen levels decrease calcium absorption and retention, increase bone turnover, and lead to lower bone mass. Calcium supplements come in various forms, including citrate and carbonate, which differ mainly in their calcium content and absorption rates. Calcium citrate is easily absorbed and can be taken without food, making it suitable for older adults or those with low stomach acid. In contrast, calcium carbonate, which contains a higher percentage of calcium, is best absorbed when taken with meals.

Whey Protein concentrate
Whey protein is a type of protein derived from cow's milk. Specifically, whey comes from the cheesemaking process. Enzymes are added to milk, which separates the milk into cheese curds and liquid whey. Whey is a complete protein, meaning that it contains all nine essential amino acids that the body needs but cannot produce on its own. Whey protein is often used as a supplement to help build and repair muscle tissue, and it is popular among athletes and bodybuilders. There are three main types of whey protein: concentrate, isolate, and hydrolysate. The concentrate contains a higher amount of lactose (milk sugar) and fat, while isolate is a purer form of protein that contains less lactose and fat. Hydrolysate is a predigested form of whey protein that is easier for the body to absorb. Whey protein is often consumed in the form of powders, shakes, and bars, and it can be mixed with water, milk, or other beverages. Drug interactions with whey protein typically result due to the calcium content of whey, which can decrease absorption of some drugs, including many classes of antibiotics.

Aspartic Acid
Description:Aspartic acid, also known as aspartate, is a non-essential amino acid that plays a crucial role in various physiological processes within the body. It functions as a building block in protein synthesis and is a central component of various enzymes. Additionally, aspartic acid plays a key role in the metabolism of nitrogen. Aspartic acid has been studied for its potential benefits as a dietary supplement. Research indicates that it may aid in cognitive function and memory by increasing the levels of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which is critical for memory and learning. Furthermore, aspartic acid has been suggested to enhance athletic performance by increasing energy and endurance through the elevation of creatine levels. It is worth mentioning that aspartame, an artificial sweetener, contains around 40% aspartic acid. Aspartic acid exists in two forms, D-aspartic acid (D-AA) and L-aspartic acid (L-AA). The structural difference between the two forms is the arrangement of atoms in their molecular structure. D-aspartic acid is more commonly found in dietary supplements for athletics, as it has been studied for its effects on testosterone levels and muscle growth.

Threonine
Description:L-Threonine is an essential amino acid, meaning it must be obtained through the diet since the body cannot produce it on its own. It plays a crucial role in supporting overall health and well-being. L-Threonine is involved in protein synthesis, aiding in the formation of collagen, elastin, and muscle tissue. It also contributes to maintaining proper immune function and balancing nitrogen levels within the body.

Tyrosine
Description:L-tyrosine is a non-essential amino acid produced within the body through the conversion of the essential amino acid, phenylalanine. It is often used as a dietary supplement to support cognitive function, enhance focus, and mitigate stress by serving as a precursor for neurotransmitters like dopamine and norepinephrine.

Methionine
Description:Methionine is an essential amino acid, meaning it must be obtained through the diet since the body cannot produce it on its own. It plays a crucial role in protein synthesis and various metabolic processes. Methionine is commonly found in protein-rich foods like meat, fish, dairy products, and certain plant-based sources, making it an important component of a balanced diet to support overall health and proper bodily functions.

Glycine
Description:Glycine is an amino acid found naturally in the body and is also available as a dietary supplement. It is considered a non-essential amino acid, meaning that the body can produce it on its own. Glycine supplementation has been studied for its potential to help improve sleep quality as it is purported to help to promote relaxation and reduce muscle tension. Some studies have also suggested that it may help to improve symptoms of sleep disorders such as insomnia. Glycine has also been studied for its potential to help with the management of some types of chronic pain, such as osteoarthritis, and for improving cognitive function.
