Understanding Protein
Nutritional Value

Amino acids from a dietary protein or an amino acid supplement are absorbed in the small intestine. Amino acids that are not used as “building blocks” in the body’s protein synthesis are catabolized and release nitrogen waste. The percentage of the amino acids in a dietary protein or an amino acid formula that are used as “building blocks” represents the nutritional value.

BioBuilde supplies the eight essential amino acids in a unique proportion and ratio to maximize your body's protein synthesis. Without these eight essential amino acids, protein cannot be made.

Net Nitrogen Utilization (NNU):

•  Represents the nutritional value of a dietary protein or an amino acid formula.
•  Is the percentage of amino acids that act as precursors or “building blocks” in the body’s protein synthesis.
