Valine

Valine, also known as Valine or 2-Amino-3-methylbutanoic acid, is one of the twenty essential amino acids that make up the proteins in our bodies. It is an essential amino acid, which means that our bodies cannot make it on their own and we must take it in through food. Valine is involved in various biochemical processes, especially protein synthesis and energy processes. It is also important for tissue regeneration and for the functioning of the immune system.

Valine is widely used in the food industry and in the manufacture of food supplements. For example, it is often found in protein drinks and body proteins for athletes, as it helps to promote muscle growth and recovery. Another use is in the manufacture of dietary products for people suffering from metabolic disorders or kidney disease, where it plays an important role in eliminating nitrogen from the body. Valine is also used in medicines for the treatment of various neurological disorders. It is also part of parenteral nutrition in people who cannot take food in the normal way.

Foods rich in valine include meat, fish, dairy products, mushrooms, soy, nuts and seeds, as well as vegetables such as broccoli and spinach. Valine is also found naturally in some cereals and leguminosae. However, despite the wide range of dietary intakes of valine, supplementation in the form of dietary supplements is often recommended, especially for people with increased physical activity.
