Free Amino Acids

NSP free amino acids is a hydrolyzed whey protein with a full range of essential and conditionally essential amino acids, supplemented with L-carnitine and magnesium. In today’s world, the need for high-quality protein is increasing: intensive training, periods of stress, recovery from illness, pregnancy and lactation — all these conditions require an increased supply of amino acids. Due to the form of a hydrolyzate — pre-cleaved protein into peptides and free amino acids — the product is absorbed quickly and does not burden the digestive system, which is especially important in cases of malabsorption, food allergies, or in clinical conditions.

NSP free amino acids — what it is and how it works

Amino acids are the building blocks of all proteins in our body: muscles, skin, enzymes, hormones, antibodies. Traditionally, we get them from food, where proteins are first broken down by digestive enzymes into amino acids and then absorbed into the bloodstream. Protein hydrolyzate is a protein that has already been partially broken down technologically, that is, it consists of 80% short peptides and 10% free amino acids, ready for immediate absorption. The remaining 10% is undigested protein, which provides a prolonged supply of amino acids. Thus, free amino acids from NSP combine quick availability of nutrients and long-term support of anabolic processes in tissues.

Composition and active components of NSP Free Amino Acids

Each tablet contains 1200 mg of hydrolyzed whey protein, enriched with seven essential amino acids according to WHO recommendations, as well as L-carnitine and magnesium to enhance energy metabolism.

• Whey protein hydrolyzate is the basis of the formula. Whey protein is recognized as the gold standard due to its optimal amino acid profile with a high content of leucine, isoleucine and valine (BCAA), which stimulate muscle protein synthesis. The hydrolyzed form provides more than 95% bioavailability and minimizes the risk of allergic reactions compared to native casein or soy.
• Seven essential amino acids (valine, leucine, isoleucine, lysine, methionine, threonine, phenylalanine) are added in increased concentrations to ensure the balance recommended by the WHO for the full synthesis of tissue proteins. Leucine activates the mTOR signaling pathway, a key mechanism of muscle growth. Lysine is necessary for collagen, immunoglobulins and carnitine. Methionine is a sulfur donor for glutathione, the main antioxidant of cells.
• L-carnitine (50 mg) – transports long-chain fatty acids into mitochondria for oxidation, i.e. conversion of fat into energy. It is traditionally used by athletes to increase endurance and reduce the percentage of adipose tissue. Studies show that carnitine can help reduce fatigue and support heart muscle function, especially at increased loads.
• Magnesium (53 mg in the form of oxide and aspartate) is a cofactor of more than 300 enzymes that regulate energy metabolism (ATP synthase), protein synthesis (ribosomal function) and muscle contraction. Magnesium lowers cortisol levels, prevents muscle spasms and maintains a normal heart rhythm.
• A full range of other amino acids (alanine, arginine, aspartic acid, cysteine, glutamic acid, glycine, histidine, proline, serine, tryptophan, tyrosine) — provide the synthesis of neurotransmitters (tryptophan → serotonin), endogenous antioxidants (cysteine → glutathione), nitric oxide (arginine → NO for vasodilation), collagen (proline, glycine). Glutamic acid is fuel for intestinal enterocytes and brain neurons.

NSP free amino acids do not contain gluten, artificial colors or preservatives. The formula is developed in accordance with GMP and TGA standards, which guarantees the purity of raw materials and the accuracy of dosages.

What research says about free amino acids

Protein hydrolysates are widely studied in sports medicine and clinical nutrition. A meta-analysis published in Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition (PubMed) showed that whey hydrolyzate accelerated muscle recovery after eccentric exercise compared to intact protein, reducing biomarkers of inflammation and muscle damage (creatine kinase, myoglobin). Other studies indicate that the WHO amino acid profile is critical for maintaining a positive nitrogen balance, especially in the elderly, pregnant women, and post-surgical patients. L-carnitine is traditionally used to support energy metabolism; a Cochrane review indicates its potential benefit in chronic fatigue and heart failure, although results vary depending on baseline carnitine status.

For whom the Free Amino Acids complex is suitable

This product is designed for a wide range of people who need high-quality and quickly digestible protein. Athletes and fitness enthusiasts appreciate the hydrolyzate for its ability to accelerate recovery after training, build muscle mass and increase endurance. People with digestive disorders (malabsorption, irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory diseases of the gastrointestinal tract) receive amino acids in a form that does not require intensive enzymatic work. Elderly people, in whom the secretion of hydrochloric acid and pepsin decreases, will be able to maintain muscle mass, which is critical for the prevention of sarcopenia. Pregnant and lactating women need additional protein for fetal development and milk production — low-allergenic hydrolyzate is a safe source. After operations, injuries or severe infections, the body goes into a catabolic state, when its own muscle proteins break down; free amino acids help to restore tissues faster and strengthen immunity.

Advantages of the Free Amino Acid complex from NSP

• ✅ Free of gluten, artificial additives – suitable for sensitive people and children (after consultation with a pediatrician)
• ✅ GMP and TGA certified – guarantee of purity of raw materials and accuracy of dosages from NSP

How to take NSP Free Amino Acids

Adults are recommended to take 2 tablets three times a day during meals, drinking a sufficient amount of water. This mode ensures a uniform supply of amino acids throughout the day, maintaining a positive nitrogen balance. Athletes can increase the dose on the recommendation of a coach or nutritionist, especially during periods of intensive training or drying. Store the product in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight to avoid oxidation of amino acids.

What to combine NSP Free Amino Acids with

For maximum effectiveness, it is recommended to combine with other NSP supplements:

• Omega 3 EPA NSP — omega-3 fatty acids reduce post-exercise inflammation, improve muscle anabolic response to protein, and support cardiovascular health.
• Super Complex NSP — multivitamin complex provides cofactors (vitamins B₆, B₁₂, folate, vitamin D) for amino acid metabolism, hemoglobin synthesis and energy processes.
• Colloidal Minerals NSP — colloidal minerals (zinc, iron, selenium) enhance protein synthesis, immune function, and antioxidant protection, which is critical during high workloads or stress.

Frequently asked questions about NSP Free Amino Acids

Are Free Amino Acids suitable for daily use?

Yes, the product is intended for long-term use. Whey protein hydrolyzate is a natural source of amino acids that can be consumed daily as a dietary supplement, especially if your diet is low in protein or you are in an active recovery or muscle growth phase.

How many Free Amino Acids to take at a time?

The standard regimen is 2 tablets three times a day during meals. If you are an athlete or in rehabilitation, your doctor or nutritionist may recommend increasing the dose to 3 tablets three times a day. It is important to distribute the intake evenly in order to maintain a stable level of amino acids in the blood.

Can Free Amino Acids be combined with other supplements?

Absolutely. Amino acids are well combined with vitamins (Super Complex), omega-3 (Omega 3 EPA), minerals (Colloidal Minerals), probiotics (Bifidophilus Flora Force) and enzymes (Food Enzymes). Such combinations enhance absorption, support digestion and optimize tissue recovery.

Are there any contraindications for use?

Yes, the product is contraindicated in phenylketonuria — a rare hereditary disease associated with the inability to metabolize phenylalanine. It is also not recommended for individual intolerance to the components. Pregnant, lactating, and people with chronic kidney or liver diseases should consult a doctor before taking.
