AAX contains a complete set of the nine essential amino acids, complemented by 10 of the non-essential amino acids.
Amino acids are the real nutrients derived from proteins by digestion of food.
Amino acids do not trigger immune responses. Free amino acids are much more expensive than protein powders, and hydrolyzed proteins but freeing the immune system from protein challenge is well-worth the cost. The preparation of each amino acid is chosen for the optimal solubility in water - this provides quick mixing and maximum nutrient absorption. No hydrolyzed proteins are used in Alpha Nutrition formulations. The formulas are hypoallergenic and have been tolerated by people with extreme sensitivity to many if not most foods.
