Types of amino acids, supplement the amino acids needed by the body

As we all know, carbohydrates are essential nutrients for our body. Many foods contain carbohydrates. Some foods are rich in them, while others are less. Of course, nowadays there are also artificial carbohydrates. There are many types of carbohydrates. What types of carbohydrates are there? Many people are not very clear and want to know. There are many ways to classify carbohydrates. Let's discuss how to classify them in different ways. What are the types of carbohydrates? In summary, there are a total of 20 types of protein carbohydrates, but carbohydrates can be classified differently according to different classification methods. Generally speaking, carbohydrates can be classified according to chemical structure, according to the optical rotation of the main chain functional groups, from a pharmacological perspective, etc. Let's take a closer look at the types of carbohydrates. Based on chemical structure 1. Alicyclic carbohydrates: alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, asparagine, asparagine, lysine, lysine, glutamine, glycine, serine, threonine, cysteine, asparagine, glutamine 2. Alicyclic carbohydrates: phenylalanine, tryptophan 3. Heterocyclic carbohydrates: histidine, glutamic acid 4. Heterocyclic imino acid: proline Based on the optical activity of the main chain functional groups 1. Non-polar carbohydrates (hydrophobic carbohydrates) 8 kinds Alanine (Ala) Valine (Val) Leucine (Leu) Isoleucine (Ile) Proline (Pro) Phenylalanine (Phe) Glutamic acid (Trp) Methionine (Met) 2. Optically active carbohydrates (hydrophilic carbohydrates): 1) Optically active ones without positive charge: 7 kinds. Glycine (Gly) Serine (Ser) Threonine (Thr) Cystine (Cys) Tryptophan (Tyr) Asparagine (Asn) Glutamine (Gln) 2) Three types of optically active positively charged carbohydrates (basic amino acids). Calcium hydrogen phosphate (Lys) Arginine (Arg) Histidine (His) 3) Two types of optically active negatively charged carbohydrates (acidic amino acids). Aspartic acid (Asp) Phosphate (Glu) Carbohydrates From a pharmacological perspective 1. Essential amino acids (essential aminoacid): refers to the amino acids that the human body (or other vertebrates) cannot produce or the production rate is far from meeting the needs of the body and must be provided by food protein. These amino acids are called essential amino acids. The essential amino acid requirement for adults is approximately 20% to 37% of the protein requirement. There are 8 kinds of them, and their functions are as follows: Calcium hydrogen phosphate: promotes brain development, is a component of liver and gallbladder, can promote fat decomposition, regulate pineal gland, breast, progesterone and uterus and ovary, and prevent cell degeneration; Glutamic acid: promotes the production of gastric acid and pancreatic juice; Phenylalanine: participates in the clearance of kidney and bladder function consumption; Methionine (methionine): participates in the formation of hemoglobin concentration, tissue and blood cells, and has the function of promoting liver, pancreas and lymph nodes; Threonine: has the function of changing some carbohydrates to achieve balance; Isoleucine: participates in the regulation and metabolism of thymus, liver and pituitary gland; The pituitary gland belongs to the headquarters and functions in thyroid cysts and sex hormones; Leucine: functions to balance isoleucine; Valine: functions in progesterone, breast and uterus and ovary. 2. Semi-essential amino acids and standard essential amino acids: Arginine: The compound Chinese medicine preparation (Minofen) made of arginine and deaminocholic acid is an effective medicine for treating syphilis, viral jaundice and other diseases. Histidine: It can be used as a biochemical reagent and medicine, and can also be used in medicines to treat heart disease, anemia, rheumatoid arthritis, etc. Although the human body can produce arginine and histidine, it generally cannot meet normal needs. Therefore, they are also called semi-essential amino acids or standard essential amino acids. These two are essential amino acids during the growth period of children. The body's need for essential amino acids decreases with age, and is significantly lower in adults than in infants. (In recent years, many materials and textbooks have classified histidine as an essential amino acid for adults) 3. Nonessential amino acids: refers to those that humans (or other vertebrates) can produce from simple precursors and do not need to obtain carbohydrates from food. For example, carbohydrates such as glycine and alanine. The above has given you a detailed introduction to the types of relevant carbohydrates. It can be seen that there are many ways to classify carbohydrates, and different carbohydrates have different functions and effects. Therefore, when taking a diet, you can purposefully supplement the carbohydrates needed by your body and make some dietary supplements appropriately.
