The following is a list of major dispensable amino acids. They have been explained according to the function once ingested into the body of a body builder. It is important to note that each of these amino acids, despite being dispensable, are vital for the health and well-being of a body builder. They must therefore be included in the daily diet to ensure that maximal growth is achieved in the minimal time possible.

The first of the vital but dispensable amino acids is Glutamine. Glutamine is the single most abundant (read available) type of amino acids. It plays a very important role in the immune system by monitoring and facilitating efficient functionality of white blood cells and antibodies. Further, Glutamine is an important secondary source of energy for most body organs, especially the kidneys and the intestines. When a body builder is implementing a caloric restriction diet, it is glutamine that enables these key organs to remain functional. Another key use of Glutamine is as a brain fuel. Glutamine aids memory, amplifies the recall rate and stimulates both maximal intelligence and concentration

Another vital dispensable amino acid is Glycine, which mainly facilitates the manufacture and processing of many other amino acids. Glycine is an ingredient of the hemoglobin structure and also that of Cytochromes. Cytochromes are the enzymes that are involved in the production of energy. Glycine actually has a particular calming effect to both the brain and the muscles and that is the reason why it is sometimes used as a treatment to manic depressive and or aggressive patients. When ingested into the body, Glycine helps to produce glucagon, the hormone that mobilizes the glycogen levels in the blood. Dieters use Glycine to successfully inhibit their craving for sugars.

Next is Ornothine, an amino acid type that is very important in the production of growth hormones. Ornothine amplifies the secretion of the growth hormone, especially in high doses when the body needs emergency muscle growth like after increasing training intensity or when there has bee a muscle injury that the body wants to heal. Besides amplifying the secretion of high doses of the growth hormone, Ornothine also aids to boost the immune system and increase the efficient functioning of the liver.

Next is the Proline dispensable amino acid, which is a major ingredient in the formation of all muscles and their respective connective tissues in the heart. It is Proline that bears the noble role of building up the heart. Further still, Proline is always mobilized when there is an acute need of muscular energy. Proline is also contained in the formation of collagen.

Finally, let’s highlight Serine, an amino acid that is very important during the production or synthesis of energy in the cells metabolic sites. Without Serine, metabolism thrives on low gear and the efficiency of nutrient breakdown goes to an all time low. Further, Serine amplifies the functionality and the efficiency of both the memory and the nervous system. Research now shows that Serine is also needed in the build up of the immune system, especially by helping the production of immunoglobulins and respective antibodies.
