Catabolism of amino acids involves the removal of nitrogen by either specific transaminases or by glutamate dehydrogenase. These pathways will produce alpha-keto acids/ carbon skeletons which can be used for energy production or biosynthesis of other molecules.

This episode features speakers from the 2025 ADSA Applied Nutrition Symposium, “Milk Pricing Dynamics and Strategies for Enhancing Milk Fat Production.” Dr. Lock gave the highlights of his presentation on dietary opportunities for promoting milk fat.  (2:18)Dr. St. Pierre's presentation focused on the change we've had in the way milk and its components are priced. (5:25)Dr. Van Amburgh's symposium talk covered amino acid supplementation to high producing cows eliciting more of a milk fat response than a milk protein response. (9:31)Dr. Van Amburgh and Dr. Lock talk about where butyrate fits into milk fat synthesis. Dr. Van Amburgh shares some of his experiences with grass-based dairy diets in Ireland and how those might influence milk fat production. The group discusses de novo and preformed fat synthesis and how diets may or may not influence those two mechanisms. (12:16)The guests talk about an abstract from Dr. Van Amburgh's lab at the ADSA meetings about supplemental lysine levels. This leads into a discussion of lactose production and fluid milk volume, as well as feedback from cheese processors and the impact of supplemental chromium on milk production parameters. (22:31)Dr. St. Pierre talks about cheese processor concerns with increased milk fat concentrations, milk pricing structures, and milk perishability. (28:27)The panel discusses metabolizable protein, essential, non-essential, and branched-chain amino acids, and how the view of fatty acids and amino acids has changed from simple substrates to make milk components to compounds with biogenic activities. (36:20)Dr. St. Pierre talks about the inaugural Industry Day at the 2025 ADSA meetings and goals for similar future events. (43:01)Panelists share their take-home thoughts.

In episode 172 of the Fit Mother Project Podcast, Dr. Anthony Balduzzi sits down with wellness leader Liz Plosser to unpack the practical power of essential amino acids (EAAs) for women in midlife. Liz shares how auditing her protein (moving from ~40–50g/day to 100–130g), lifting heavier, and adding a simple EAA + creatine ritual transformed her recovery, sleep, energy, and body composition. You'll learn how leucine acts as the “on-switch” for muscle protein synthesis, why EAAs raise blood amino acids faster than food or even whey, and exactly how to time them around training—especially if you love early-morning or fasted workouts.They get into real-life scenarios: perimenopause and muscle loss, plant-forward diets that miss the leucine threshold, travel days with low appetite, and periods of stress when whole-food intake dips. Liz explains how she pairs EAAs with creatine for stronger training and steadier energy, and why she still prioritizes whole-food protein as her foundation. You'll also hear when not to sip EAAs (e.g., during longer fasts for autophagy goals) and how to keep perspective by focusing on the “big rocks” first—strength, cardio, sleep, stress, connection, and simple, protein-forward meals.Finally, Dr. Anthony and Liz compare EAAs vs. whey vs. whole food, outline quick-start dosing/timing ideas, and share easy kitchen and gym habits that make consistency feel effortless. Whether you're rebuilding strength after a lull, navigating hormone changes, or just want a cleaner way to support recovery, this episode gives you a clear, actionable playbook to get stronger and feel amazing—without overcomplicating your routine.Key TakeawaysEAAs rapidly raise blood aminos and trigger MPS.Leucine threshold (~2–3 g) is the on-switch for MPS.EAAs are great pre/during/post—especially for fasted AM training.Aging = anabolic resistance; EAAs help bridge the gap.Food = slow, whey = faster, EAAs = fastest availability.Pair EAAs with creatine for strength, recovery, and body comp.Useful for travel, low appetite, and plant-forward meals.Focus on “big rocks” first: strength, cardio, sleep, stress, nutrition.EAAs complement—don't replace—high-quality whole-food protein.Skip EAAs during longer fasts if autophagy is the goal.Learn More about Liz Plosser and Kion:Website: Go to getkion.com/fitmother and save 20%Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lizplosser/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@LizBakerPlosserSubstack: https://lizplosser.substack.com/Kion's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kion/Biographical Information on Liz PlosserLiz Plosser is the former Editor-in-Chief of Women's Health, where for seven years she oversaw the brand across its print and digital platforms and various brand extensions, reaching a monthly audience of 44+ million.

Host: Kate Brownfield, Certified Whole Person & ADHD Parent Coach Guest: Julia Ross, bestselling author of The Mood Cure, The Diet Cure, and The Craving Cure; pioneer in nutrient-based therapies; director of a global virtual clinic and professional training. Episode Overview Kate sits down with mood and cravings expert Julia Ross to explore how targeted nutrients and protein-forward eating patterns may support mood stability, cravings, sleep, and attention, especially in ADHD families. Julia shares stories from decades of clinical work, why “context drives capacity” for brains under stress, and how simple nutrition shifts can complement (not replace) therapy and medication. What We Cover From psychotherapy to nutrients: why the addiction and mood field began testing amino acids alongside counseling. Five key neurotransmitter systems and the amino acids commonly discussed to support them (education, not medical advice): Tyrosine → focus/energy support Tryptophan → serotonin/mood/sleep support GABA → calming/“reduce extra adrenaline” support Endorphin support → comfort, reduced “junk food only” pull Glutamine → hypoglycemia/cravings support Food first: why consistent animal-protein intake (plus balanced meals—“three squares”) may matter for mood and attention, and how ultra-processed foods complicate the picture. Practical tips with kids: creative ways to deliver supplements if a child won't swallow capsules; previewing and monitoring effects; starting low and going slow. Working with meds: how some families explore nutrients hours away from stimulant dosing and then collaborate with prescribers if they see benefits. Screening tools & resources: Julia's five-part symptom questionnaire, and an updated handbook for getting started. Key Takeaways Nutrition can be a complementary lever for improving mood, managing cravings, enhancing sleep, and improving attention, best used in conjunction with medical care, therapy, routines, and good sleep hygiene. Protein at breakfast and steady meals helps prevent the “crash → crave” loop. If you experiment with nutrients, track one change at a time, observe effects, and coordinate with your clinician, especially for kids, pregnancies, and anyone on medication. What “works” is individualized; expect small trials + careful notes rather than a one-size-fits-all protocol.

Amino acids are defined by two functional groups: An amino group and a carboxylic group. Both groups can donate/accept protons under specific pH conditions. At a neural pH (7.0) amino acids exist in the zwitterionic form of NH3 + and COO-.

The source, an excerpt from the YouTube video "Catabolism of Amino Acids @Metabolism Made Easy," discusses the unique aspects of amino acid metabolism. It explains that amino acids are the sole nitrogen-containing molecules utilized by the body, which leads to the eventual production of ammonia during catabolism. To manage this toxic byproduct, the body employs the urea cycle to safely eliminate the nitrogen. The video also highlights that unlike glucose or fatty acids, the body lacks a storage mechanism for excess amino acids, meaning any surplus not used for synthesizing proteins or specialized products is broken down. This catabolism generates a carbon skeleton or keto acid that can then be used by the body for energy production.

In this podcast, Functional Ecology author Fernando Gonçalves talks to Assistant Editor Amelia Macho about his article "Pollen essential amino acids shape bat–flower interaction networks". Fernando's article discusses how pollen protein and amino acid composition influence year-round and seasonal bat–flower interaction networks. Its results underscore the essential role of pollen, not just nectar, as a key reward for attracting flower-visiting bats, and therefore highlights pollen content as an important driver structuring pollination networks.

Every few days, your gut rebuilds itself completely - cell by cell, guided by signals we still don't fully understand. For years, scientists have known that diet can influence this process, but the exact messenger between what we eat and how the gut heals has remained a mystery.In this episode, we look at new research from MIT that uncovers a surprising link between diet, the immune system, and regeneration in the intestine. It's a story about how a single nutrient can activate immune cells to release molecules that tell the gut when it's time to repair.It challenges the way we think about food, not just as fuel, but as information. Because the gut isn't just digesting what we eat… it's listening.00:00 Introduction to Gut Regeneration00:56 The Role of Amino Acids in Gut Health02:07 ???: A Key Player in Gut Regeneration02:35 MIT's Groundbreaking Research 03:49 The Immune System's Role in Gut Regeneration05:51 Dietary Sources and Implications 07:07 Conclusion: The Gut's Adaptive NaturePMID: 41034585

This isn't about selling you another trendy supplement; this is about understanding why we had hydrogen-rich streams and gut bacteria that no longer exist, and how restoring this one molecule through the NRF-2 pathway can transform everything from mitochondrial function to sleep quality.  Join the Ultimate Human VIP community for Gary Brecka's proven wellness protocols! https://bit.ly/4ai0Xwg Thank you to our partners H2TABS: “ULTIMATE10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4hMNdgg BODYHEALTH: “ULTIMATE20” FOR 20% OFF: http://bit.ly/4e5IjsV BAJA GOLD: "ULTIMATE10" FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/3WSBqUa EIGHT SLEEP: SAVE $350 ON THE POD 4 ULTRA WITH CODE “GARY”: https://bit.ly/3WkLd6E COLD LIFE: THE ULTIMATE HUMAN PLUNGE: https://bit.ly/4eULUKp WHOOP: JOIN AND GET 1 FREE MONTH!: https://bit.ly/3VQ0nzW MASA CHIPS: 20% OFF FIRST ORDER: https://bit.ly/40LVY4y VANDY: “ULTIMATE20” FOR 20% OFF: https://bit.ly/49Qr7WE AION: “ULTIMATE10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4h6KHAD A-GAME: “ULTIMATE15” FOR 15% OFF: http://bit.ly/4kek1ij CARAWAY: “ULTIMATE” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/3Q1VmkC HEALF: 10% OFF YOUR ORDER: https://bit.ly/41HJg6S BIOPTIMIZERS: “ULTIMATE” FOR 15% OFF: https://bit.ly/4inFfd7 RHO NUTRITION: “ULTIMATE15” FOR 15% OFF: https://bit.ly/44fFza0 GOPUFF: GET YOUR FAVORITE SNACK!: https://bit.ly/4obIFDC GENETIC TEST: ⁠https://bit.ly/3Yg1Uk9 Watch  the “Ultimate Human Podcast” every Tuesday & Thursday at 9AM EST: YouTube: https://bit.ly/3RPQYX8 Podcasts: https://bit.ly/3RQftU0 Connect with Gary Brecka Instagram: https://bit.ly/3RPpnFs TikTok: https://bit.ly/4coJ8fo X: https://bit.ly/3Opc8tf Facebook: https://bit.ly/464VA1H LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/4hH7Ri2 Website: https://bit.ly/4eLDbdU Merch: https://bit.ly/4aBpOM1 Newsletter: https://bit.ly/47ejrws Ask Gary: https://bit.ly/3PEAJuG Timestamps 00:00 Intro of Show 00:26 Big Data & AI Will Revolutionise the Medical Field 05:10 Impact of Hydrogen in the Human Body 07:47 Theory of Immunofatigue 10:18 Three Greatest Deficiencies in Human Beings Worldwide 15:01 Adding Hydrogen Gas to One's Routine 16:04 What's Inside and Outside of the Human Cell? 21:26 Balancing Inflammation and Oxidation with Hydrogen Gas 24:47 What is GLP-1?  28:12 Amino Acids Are the Building Blocks of Life 32:50 Soil Lineage Studies Then vs. Now 35:12 Weakening of Our Immune Systems due to COVID Protocols 37:40 Gary's Morning Routine 41:26 Remnants of the Radiation on the Brain 43:29 Stance on Hormone Replacement Therapy  The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka Podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.

Send us a textEpisode OverviewIn this eye-opening episode of , host tackles one of the most misunderstood health crises today: the hormone replacement trap. What starts as a conversation about early onset perimenopause in women and declining testosterone in men becomes a powerful call to return to the real foundation of health. Justin exposes how modern health clinics push costly hormone and peptide therapies as quick fixes—while neglecting the root cause: deep cellular deficiencies. He breaks down how vitamins, minerals, and amino acids form the true base of hormone health, and shares five practical daily strategies to rebalance your hormones naturally, restore energy, and reclaim vitality without lifelong prescriptions.Episode Highlights ● The Hormone Trap: Why injections, patches, and peptides are often just expensive band-aids masking foundational deficiencies. ● Root Cause vs. Quick Fix: Hormones are end-of-the-line signals; true healing starts with restoring cellular nutrients like magnesium, zinc, iodine, B vitamins, and amino acids. ● The Real Risks of HRT: Hormone replacement can disrupt natural hormone production, fertility, and even raise risks of stroke, blood clots, or cancer. ● Faith & Stewardship: Your body is designed to heal when given the right building blocks—stewarding it well is both wise and worshipful. ● The Own It Philosophy: How Justin's team rebuilds health from the ground up through personalized cellular testing and targeted replenishment.Action Steps ● Ask yourself: “Am I addressing symptoms or building a foundation?” Shift your mindset from quick fixes to lasting health. ● Prioritize whole, nutrient-dense foods and consider cellular-level testing to uncover hidden deficiencies. ● Reduce chronic stress with the 3-2-1 nightly wind-down rule, breathwork, visualization, and intentional Sabbath rest. ● Address metabolic dysfunction through sustainable movement and gradual fat loss to restore natural hormone production. ● Before considering hormone therapy, build your base with the essentials—vitamins, minerals, and amino acids—so your body can heal and self-regulate.=========================== Subscribe and Listen to the Own It Show HERE: ➡︎ YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@justinroethlingshoefer➡︎ Apple Podcasts:https://apple.co/3KCyN3j➡︎ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3F58Ez4lbIKQ6kMu2pfpIG =========================== Resources: ⚡️CHECK OUR PROGRAMS: https://ownitcoaching.com/programs/⚡️BOOK: https://thepowerofownershipbook.com/ =========================== Connect with Justin Roethlingshoefer on Social Media: ➡︎ linkedin.com/in/justin-roethlingshoefer➡︎https://www.instagram.com/justinroeth/?hl=en Own It Success is different so own your different!

This episode was recorded in Fort Wayne, Indiana, during the 2025 Tri-State Dairy Conference.Dr. Boerman notes we know cows experience a negative metabolizable protein balance in early lactation, which means they're mobilizing skeletal muscle to make up for that. Dr. Boerman and her group have been interested in strategies to measure how much muscle they're mobilizing, when they're losing it and when they gain it back.  (3:51)Cows are ultrasounded during the dry period to determine longissimus dorsi muscle reserves, then divided into low vs high muscle groups. Weekly ultrasounds follow them through lactation.  Animals with high muscle reserves during the dry period mobilized muscle before calving, which resulted in increased calf birth weights. Animals with less muscle during the dry period can gain muscle during that time and have more muscle reserves at calving than they had in the middle of the dry period. Dr. Boerman discusses possible nutrition interventions to manage muscle depletion and accretion, as well as timing of muscle loss and gain.  (5:14)The panel discusses how cows were assigned to high- and low-muscle groups and how representative those groups might be to the general population of dairy cows. Dr. Boerman mentions they've recently started evaluating primiparous cows as well to see if they perform differently than multiparous cows. (10:33)Dr. Boerman notes that cows are mobilizing between 30 and 35% of their longissimus dorsi depth during lactation and muscle biopsies have shown a reduction in muscle fiber size. They also measure 3-methyl histidine and creatinine as biomarkers of muscle loss and gain. The panel discusses increased calf birth weights and impacts on colostrum for high-muscle groups. Body condition score is not a good predictor of muscle depth. (16:52)The group discusses how parity might impact protein loss and gain, the influence of genetics on these muscle measurements, how health events might affect muscle mobilization and what kind of hormonal regulation might be occurring to control muscle losses and gains. (23:41)Dr. Weiss shares about a project from his group where muscle and fat losses were measured by dilution. They fed 20% protein diets using soy alone or with supplementation of rumen-protected amino acids. He emphasized the differences between heifers and cows, similar to what Dr. Boerman's group has observed as well. (29:54)Dr. Boerman shares some ideas of what kind of experiments she'd like to conduct next to continue this line of research. (33:42)Panelists share their take-home thoughts.

Are amino acid supplements worth the hype, or are they just another trend? In this video, we're diving deep into the world of amino acids to uncover the truth.We'll start by explaining what amino acids are and the different types that exist. You'll learn about essential and non-essential amino acids and why each type is important for your body.Next, we'll explore the potential health benefits of amino acids. From muscle growth and recovery to improved mood and immune function, amino acids play a crucial role in various aspects of health. But can supplements really make a difference, or is it better to get your amino acids from food?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Amino acids are more than just a fitness buzzword - they're the building blocks your body needs for muscle, mood, energy, and recovery. In this episode of Ask a Nutritionist, dietician Teresa Wagner explains the difference between essential and non-essential amino acids, how to meet your protein needs through real food, and when supplements like whey protein, collagen, or creatine might be helpful. Learn how amino acids support your metabolism, immune system, sleep, and more, and walk away with practical guidelines to fuel your body at any age.

Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in your body, supporting tissue repair, immune function, and energy production, while also helping protect your eyes from vision loss Research shows your eyes rely on glutamine to fuel photoreceptors, the light-sensing cells in the retina, making it a key nutrient for long-term visual health When glutamine metabolism is disrupted, photoreceptors degenerate rapidly, triggering harmful stress pathways that accelerate retinal thinning and increase the risk of blindness Studies demonstrate that restoring glutamine balance calms cellular stress, preserves retinal thickness, and keeps eye cells alive, offering new strategies for preventing eye disease You can support natural glutamine levels through diet by eating foods such as grass fed beef, wild-caught Alaskan salmon, pastured eggs, raw dairy, spinach, cabbage, beans, and even white rice

Most of us think protein is just about building muscle—but what if we've been getting it wrong all along? In this eye-opening episode, host Louisa sits down with Angelo Keely, co-founder and CEO of Kion, to uncover the real science behind protein, amino acids, and muscle health. Angelo explains why essential amino acids—not just protein—are the critical drivers of muscle maintenance, recovery, and even longevity. He breaks down the shocking truth about how different protein sources actually compare, why aging adults need more than the RDA suggests, and how supplements like amino acids can prevent muscle loss—even without exercise.  Whether you're a midlife woman trying to protect bone density, an athlete looking for an edge, or simply someone who wants to age stronger—this is an episode you can't afford to miss. About the guest: Angelo is the co-founder and CEO of Kion, a lifestyle and supplement company built around optimizing health and energy through essential nutrients. With a lifelong passion for nutrition and performance, he's on a mission to educate people about the powerful science of amino acids and help them live stronger, healthier, and longer lives.  Discover Kion: Instagram: @kion Visit getkion.com/neuro for 20% off. *** Subscribe to The Neuro Experience for more conversations at the intersection of brain science and performance.

What if the “clean” protein powder in your pantry isn't so clean after all? In this episode, I sit down with Oliver Amdrup, founder of Puori, to unpack the shocking results of the Clean Label Project's latest protein powder study. We get into the nitty-gritty of what was actually found — from heavy metals lurking in plant and even organic powders, to why chocolate-based proteins are some of the worst offenders. Oliver breaks down how these contaminants impact your health, why most brands don't (or won't) test deeply enough, and what sets truly transparent companies apart. We also cover the real differences between whey, plant, and collagen proteins, what role certifications actually play, and whether you should give up foods like fish or chocolate when toxins feel unavoidable. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by the idea that “everything is toxic,” this conversation is the antidote. It's equal parts eye-opening and empowering — with practical steps to help you make smarter, safer choices without fear.
