L-THREONINE

Threonine is required for healthy functioning of the GI tract, helping improve the assimilation and absorption of nutrients for overall health.

Along with many other amino acids threonine is an important constituent of collagen, elastin and enamel protein.

When choline, a lipotropic (fat burning), substance is deficient in the diet, threonine takes on the role of a lipotropic to prevent fatty build-up in the liver.
