essential amino acids

Essential amino acids are amino acids that the body cannot synthesize or synthesize at a rate that does not meet the needs of the human body and must be taken from food. It is essential for the human body (or other vertebrates), and there is no synthetic amino acid in the body that must be supplemented from food, called essential amino acids. For adults, there are eight essential amino acids: lysine, tryptophan, phenylalanine, methionine, threonine, isoleucine, leucine, and valine. If the above amino acids are often absent from the diet, it can affect your health. It plays an important role in the growth of the baby. Histidine is also an essential amino acid for infants. Basic Information Specialist classification: growth and development examination classification: blood examination Applicable gender: whether men and women apply fasting: not fasting Tips: Eat a variety of fresh vegetables, fruits and fruits are rich in vitamins, high nutritional value. Normal value There are no specific standards, and there are different requirements for the content of essential amino acids in all ages, constitutions, and races. Clinical significance Abnormal results If the human body lacks protein, the light body declines, the development is slow, the resistance is weakened, the anemia is weak, and the severe ones form edema and even life-threatening. Once the protein is lost, life no longer exists. The basic unit of protein is an amino acid. If the human body lacks any essential amino acids, it can lead to abnormal physiological functions, affect the normal conduct of antibody metabolism, and finally lead to disease. It can cause metabolic disorders in antibodies. Insufficient intake of essential amino acids causes a decrease in insulin and an increase in blood sugar. The protein and essential amino acid content of the population to be inspected are too low. High results may be diseases: pediatric protein-energy malnutrition precautions Taboo before the test: abnormal rest, abnormal diet, excessive mood. Requirements for inspection: Actively cooperate with the doctor's work. Inspection process Taking a sample of the body, after a certain treatment, the proportion of essential amino acids in the sample is measured by a reagent or an instrument, thereby obtaining the content of essential amino acids in the human body. Not suitable for the crowd Inappropriate crowd: None. Adverse reactions and risks 1. Infection: Pay attention to aseptic operation when collecting blood, avoid contamination of water and other parts at the blood collection site to avoid local infection. 2, bleeding: after the blood is given a full compression time, especially coagulopathy, bleeding tendency, to avoid local subcutaneous oozing, bruising and swelling.
