Contains
Approximately five hundred amino acids occur in nature. Twenty of these are amino acids that serve as building blocks for proteins in the human body, these are referred to as 'fundamental amino acids'. These fundamental amino acids can be subdivided into the categories 'essential', 'semi-essential' and 'non-essential'. 'Essential' means that the body cannot synthesize the amino acid itself from other amino acids, and one is completely dependent on diet to meet daily needs.
