In this webinar series Emeritus Professor Roberts will introduce the newly identified High Demand Amino Acids (Aspartic Acid, Glycine, Histidine, Lysine, Ornithine, Serine) that have pivotal roles in metabolism, in the functioning of numerous biochemical pathways, as well as fuelling protein synthesis.

Despite their critical roles, HDAA face rapid depletion through sweat, urine, and the rigors of daily life—intensified during daily activities, trauma, infections, and exercise.  HDAA supplementation can accelerate the natural body recovery processes to maintain good health, retain muscle mass, reduce fatigue, feel more energetic, improve stamina, general well-being, sleep and recovery from illness, injury or intensive physical activity.  This webinar will then focus on histidine and its critical roles in energy production, immunity and inflammation.

Histidine is an amino acid that regulates body functions including wakefulness, feeding behaviour, digestion and motivation. It is required for synthesis of haemoglobin and a deficit can lead to anaemia. Histidine is required for the formation of carnosine which is highly concentrated in the muscles and brain and has many roles including acting as an antioxidant.

Histidine is crucial for the maintenance and proper functioning of the immune system. Histidine supplementation can influence the signalling proteins that mediate inflammation and immune responses. Histidine is an essential precursor for the important neurotransmitter histamine.

Histamine has vital roles in 23 different physiological functions (sleep, gut function, brain function, allergy & arousal), modulated through four different histamine receptors.

Supplemental histidine is being investigated for use in a variety of different conditions, including neurological disorders, atopic dermatitis, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, uraemic anaemia, ulcers, inflammatory bowel diseases, malignancies, and muscle performance during strenuous exercise.
