Amino Acids - Are They Really a Good Supplement?

Welcome to the Siim Land Podcast I’m your host Siim Land and our guest today is Tim Gray. Tim is the founder and CEO of the Health Optimisation Summit. He also came out with the Health Optimisation Supplements that have one of the cleanest ingredients for products like collagen, protein powder, and essential amino acids or EAAs. Using essential aminos has been one of the biggest game-changers in my muscle growth and strength development over the past year or so. Besides body composition, EAAs also help with neurotransmitters, digestion, energy production, and mood. If you want to try out Health Optimisation EAAs, then you can get a 15% discount off all their products if you head over to siimland.com/aminos and use the code SIIM15.
