30 - Day Amino Acid Powder Supplement Recommendation

The table below shows the recommended custom amino acid formula based on the results of your laboratory test for plasma
amino acid levels. The Base Formula contains a constant percentage of the essential amino acids. To achieve your optimal
formula, additional amounts of individual amino acids ("Grams Added") are added and the "Base Formula amount" is adjusted
so that the total weight is 300 grams of powder. The final percentage in your powder will be different from those in the table
because of the addition of specific amounts of each essential amino acid.

Directions: Mix 1 and 1/2 measuring teaspoon (5g) into juice or water 2 times daily between meals as a dietary supplement, or
as directed by a Doctor. Children under 12 years old: 1 teaspoon 1-2 times daily between meals.

This formula can be made up by a compounding pharmacist or is available from Metabolic Maintenance
Products at 1-800-772-7873.

Base Formula amount: 282 gm % of Base Grams Added

L-5-Hydroxytryptophan 0.00% + 1
L-Arginine 9.40% + 0
L-Histidine 10.10% + 0
L-Isoleucine 9.40% + 0
L-Leucine 12.90% + 0
L-Lysine 9.40% + 0
L-Methionine 7.70% + 0
L-Phenylalanine 12.90% + 0
L-Taurine 0.00% + 17
L-Threonine 8.10% + 0
L-Valine 11.10% + 0
Pyridoxal-5-phosphate .30 % + 0
Alpha-ketoglutaric acid 8.50 % + 0

• Only the essential amino acids are included in this formula because from these your body makes all of the other
amino acids, and thus raises the levels of any that might be low.
• Pyridoxal-5-phosphate (an active form of B6) and Alpha-Ketoglutaric Acid cofactor nutrients are included in the powder.
These are needed in the body's utilization of amino acids.

• The amino powder dissolves easily in a little warm water, followed by fruit juice. It may also be blended with
applesauce. It should not be taken with any other form of protein or amino acid product.

• In most cases supplementation should continue for three months at which time another amino acid test should be
done to re-evaluate the need for supplementation.
• Occasionally, people experience such an enhanced energy level that they should not take the second dose of the
powder at bedtime, but earlier in the day.
