- Hormones - Cells

Essential Amino Acids Eight amino acids are essential for
humans. They are tryptophan, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, valine, leucine, isoleucine.
Two amino acids are essential for children. They are alanine and histadine.
Your body can make the other 10 amino acids.

Essential Amino Acids Phenylalanine is used to make an amino acid
called, tyrosine. In a few cases, some people are missing or don’t
make enough of the enzyme to make tyrosine. This inherited disorder is called phenylketonuria
or PKU If it goes untreated, a person can suffer
retardation
