Description
Dietary supplement based on the 8 essential amino acids (3 branched-chain amino acids + 5 non-branched-chain amino acids), present in a qualitative and quantitative ratio specifically designed for the human species.
Due to its characteristics, Gunamino formula:
-is rapidly absorbed;
-requires minimal digestive effort;
-produces only a minimal amount of nitrogenous waste;
-does not overload kidney and liver functions.
The amino acids in Gunamino formula are obtained by bio-fermentation on vegetables (cereals) and are ultra-purified and crystallized.

Ingredients
Essential amino acid blend (L-leucine, L-valine, L-isoleucine, L-lysine hydrochloride, L-phenylalanine, L-threonine, L-methionine, L-tryptophan); coating agent: hydroxypropyl methylcellulose; coloring agent: titanium dioxide; bulking agent: microcrystalline cellulose (cellulose gel); stabilizers: acetic esters of mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids.

Gluten-free.
