Amino Acid Supplements Evolved: The Science Behind High-Demand Amino Acids (HDAA)
At InnovAAte, our research has redefined what amino acid supplementation can achieve. Through decades of scientific investigation, we identified six High-Demand Amino Acids (HDAA) — histidine, glycine, serine, lysine, aspartic acid, and ornithine — that the body loses in large amounts through sweat and metabolism.
Why “Amino Acid Supplements” are about so much more than muscle-protein
High-Demand Amino Acids (HDAA) don’t just build protein — they sustain, optimise and repair your metabolic engine.

Amino Acid Supplements: Why High-Demand Amino Acids (HDAA) Are Critical for Active Women Over 40
As women reach their 40s, energy levels, recovery time, and overall resilience can begin to shift. Hormonal changes, increased sweating, and metabolic slowdown make it harder to stay active and feel strong.
When it comes to fuelling exercise and speeding recovery, most athletes reach for protein shakes. They’ve become the go-to solution for muscle repair and performance support. But here's the truth: protein shakes alone are not enough—especially during and immediately after intense physical activity.
