Whilst amino acids are generally available from foods, highly active humans or those with chronic health issues, may not be receiving appropriate proportions of the HDAA to meet the daily requirements.

Utilisation of the HDAA during normal daily activities are much higher than the other amino acids. It is important to replenish these amino acids in appropriate proportions to meet the daily requirements to support well-being.

Welcome to The HDAA Revolution, where science meets everyday fitness and wellness. In this ground-breaking series of podcasts, hosts Hugh Dunstan and Tim Roberts, seasoned biochemists with over 30 years of research on fatigue, recovery, and hydration, take you on an enlightening journey into the world of High-Demand Amino Acids (HDAA).

HDAAs are the unsung heroes of your body’s inner workings, playing a critical role in recovery after exercise, maintaining energy levels, and supporting overall health. This special group of amino acids do much more than just help build proteins—they are used to build energy systems, help maintain electrolyte balance and support nerve function.

Today we are going to introduce to you the exciting new concept of high-demand amino acids - known as HDAA - and begin to show you how supplementation with these amino acids could really help you achieve your goals for a healthy and active lifestyle.
