Aspartic Acid
A non-essential amino acid that builds proteins and takes part in the urea cycle and in glucose production; in the brain it stimulates NMDA receptors, being the "A" in their name (N-methyl-D-aspartate). This family brings together the active ingredient, labelled standards and other impurities.
Did you know?It was obtained in 1827 by Plisson and Henry from asparagine, which had been isolated in 1806 from asparagus juice: hence the name. Today it is also one of the two building blocks of the sweetener aspartame.
