Hey Ladies:
Here is a list of the 22 Amino acids, which are the building blocks to protein. Now, we all know that protein helps hair (because hair is mostly protein). Anyway, here's the list of all 22, then I broke down essential and non-essential. Essential amino acids cannot be produced by the body (or by other amino acids)!

"Amino acids just don't make contributions individually, they only always function as part of protein metabolism, and this is very complex. They don't work like vitamins."

GLUCINE
– for your immune system
TRYPTOPHAN
– for sleep and youthful skin
METHIONINE
– for cleansing the liver and kidneys
LYSINE
– for herpes and simple viral infections
TYROSINE
– for alertness and better memory
GLUTATHIONE
– helps slow cellular damage
GLUTAMINE
– provides the brain with fuel
GLUTAMIC ACID
– for brain health
TAURINE
– the brain amino acid
PHENYLALANINE
– for tissue maintenance and normal growth
ORNITHINE

HISTIDINE
– for hearing and nerve cells
CYSTINE
– for good skin tone and premature aging
ARGININE
– involved in burning fat and muscle building
ASPARTIC ACID
– for the heart and blood vessels
ALANINE
– for the function of the skins adrenal glands
