Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. Our bodies need over 20 amino acids to function properly.

With a damaged food supply, it’s tough to get all the nutrients your body needs. Choosing better quality foods will give your body more nutrients. Stick to grass-fed and grass-finished beef. Visit farmers markets. Ask questions about the food before you buy it.

Listen as Dr. Fred Pescatore joins Dr. Mike Smith to discuss amino acids and how to get the most out of your meals.
