As a result, amino acids have more diverse functions than any other nutrient group, including:

Cellular energy production
Formation of ligaments, tendons, and bones
Formation of antibodies
Formation and regulation of enzymes and blood transport proteins
Fasting blood levels represent a homeostatic balance between supply and utilization of amino acids

The Metametrix Bloodspot Amino Acid Assay can illuminate problems in amino acid absorption by determining essential amino acid imbalances. The Bloodspot Amino Acid Assay is a non-invasive alternative to a blood draw in determining essential amino acid status and therefore may be a better alternative in the pediatric setting.

Arginine
