Amino acids—life's building blocks. Amino acids are the basic structural building blocks of proteins and they play essential roles in maintaining the health of the body's endocrine (hormone) system. The endocrine system plays an important role in strength and power development by mediating the remodeling of muscle protein. Formulated to nourish the endocrine system, particularly the hypothalamus, adrenal and pituitary glands, MediTropin provides nutritional support for healthy hormone function at any age. The specific amino acids in MediTropin are associated with positive nitrogen balance, protein metabolism and the production of metabolic fuel. MediTropin works best with brief rests or intervals between dosage regimens. These breaks help to ensure effectiveness and maintain amino acid receptor site efficiency.
