Report Summary

The Global Amino Acid Market is projected to grow a faster rate due to the rising awareness for personal health, and increasing consumption of dietary fibres & meat. Amino acids are organic nutrients found in food products and in the human body in the form of building blocks of proteins or free amino acids. Twenty one amino acids are used to form proteins in human bodies and are categorized into essential amino acids, conditionally essential amino acids, and nonessential amino acids. Amino acids are responsible for performing bodily functions such as maintaining cell structure, transporting and storing nutrients, managing efficient functioning of organs, glands, tendons and arteries, healing wounds and repairing tissue, and removing waste deposits produced during metabolism. Lack of proper supply of amino acids can cause hair loss, skin problems, weight issues, sleep disorders, arthritis, diabetes, and cardiovascular imbalance among others. Amino acids are used in animal feed, food and dietary supplements, and pharmaceutical.
