Amino acids are the foundation of protein and are needed for many internal functions of the body. They are classified as "essential" or "non-essential", with essential amino acids not being able to be produced by the body and having to be supplemented by diet to maintain overall good health. Amino acids can also be used by the body to make hormones, enzymes, neurotransmitters, antibodies and nutrient carriers. Inadequate intake of essential amino acids increases the body's need for non-essential amino acids, either through diet or supplementation. Foods that increase amino acid intake are meat, beans, cheese and eggs.

Taurine is an essential amino acid, as it is not produced by the body. Participates in various body processes.
