Vegan Essential Aminos Raspberry

As a particular amino acid hydroxyproline is not particularly abundant in the human diet, as it mainly comes from collagen in animal meat, offal, tripe, bone etc and insects. You may have seen a surge in popularity of bone broths, collagen, organ meats in the omnivore diets and with the carnivorous and paleo trends. Insect protein is also becoming increasingly popular. For a modern plant-based diet, the intake of hydroxyproline is even lower. The foods of the modern diet are more processed. Even when purchasing "whole" foods there are less insects, cobwebs, insect eggs etc in the plant matter so insect consumption as part of the plant-based diet has reduced. A plant-based diet historically would get hydroxyproline from insects and some plants such as alfalfa sprouts and certain mosses. A study published in 2019 showed vegans and vegetarians to be the most resistant to the concept of consuming insects as part of their diet and not likely to be able to support collagen with hydroxyproline from insects. ATP Science has made plant-based hydroxyproline to supplement your diet if deficient or provide the extra dose for those who want extra. Vegan-friendly BCAA's have been added for the benefit of muscle sparing and regenerative properties in those that are training or to compensate for the lack of leucine in plant proteins.
