There are three main types of basic amino acids, namely arginine, lysine and histidine.
Alkaline amino acids are amino acids that hydrolyze to produce more negative hydroxide ions than positive hydrogen ions, and they have important value in medicine.
1. Arginine: Mainly used in the treatment of hepatic encephalopathy, it can be used in the formation of urea in the body, so that the ammonia produced in the body is converted into non-toxic urea, which can be discharged by the urine, thus lowering the concentration of blood ammonia, and it is also suitable for the treatment of diseases caused by the increased blood ammonia due to other reasons.
2. Lysine: the main role is to promote human development, enhance the body’s immunity, improve the function of the central nervous system, but also improve intelligence, improve memory, improve appetite, improve malnutrition, but also to prevent the occurrence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
3. Histidine: the main role is to maintain the healthy development of body tissues, especially the myelin sheath that surrounds the nerve cells and ensures that information from the brain is transmitted to all parts of the body, which has a certain effect on the treatment of mental illnesses and so on.
