FitLine Proshape Amino In-Depth Review
Purpose
FitLine® ProShape Amino improves all metabolic processes, increases and maintains muscle mass, raises stamina, offsets the energy consumed during training.
Essential amino acids play a big part in growing and retaining muscles, so the product is especially suitable for professional or amateur athletes wanting increased performance and results. It’s also recommended during a diet because the special combination of amino acids.
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. To picture it better, imagine a necklace. Amino acids are the beads and a protein is the whole necklace.
It can be said that protein is the most important component of food because proteins are the main component of the body’s cells and tissues.
But your body cannot use the protein you get from foods directly. It first needs to break down the protein in amino acids. The processing of any protein requires a significant expenditure of energy and time on the part of your body.
In simple terms, your body has no use for the whole protein, but it has an immense need for the amino acids in the protein. That’s why a direct supply of amino acids is so beneficial. Your body gets relieved of tedious duty and can concentrate on producing energy and keeping your healthy.
When amino acids go into the blood and the blood is delivered to your cells and tissues, new proteins are synthesized from these amino acids. So by supplying your body with amino acids, you are literally helping to build your body.
But it’s not like every amino acids are good for every little thing your body needs. There are two groups – essential and non-essential amino acids.
Non-essential amino acids can be synthesized by using other amino acid fragments as raw material. However essential amino acids can’t be synthesized in the body. ProShape Amino provides all the essential amino acids that have a definite role. In result, it enhances concentration, coordination, durability, physical recovery, memory, motivation and energy supply to the body.

My personal opinion
This is the only FitLine® product that has no taste, but that doesn’t make it any less important. Once you understand why amino acids are so important, you want your body to have a good supply of them.
The only problem is that you can’t really feel the effects. Every other FitLine® product shows its effectiveness within few days. The results are tangible and fast, which makes it rewarding to to stay with the product.
Amino acids have a much deeper job, so you can’t expect an immediate result. However, after a while, when your muscles are strong,, you’ll feel the results of ProShape Amino just as vividly.
Alternatives
For amino acids absorption is everything. There are amino acid powders out there, but most of it goes to waste once it’s in your body. Your body has to recognize and understand the chemical formulas of what it’s getting.
Fitline®’s Nutrient Transport Concept (NTC®) guarantees correct absorption in the time-frame your body can easily accept. It also makes sure each supplement is compatible with each other and synergizes in a well thought out system.

Shop online
PM-International is a Direct Sales company and therefore the products are not sold on regular stores or Amazon. It’s sometimes possible to find something on Ebay, but I don’t recommend second-hand sellers. They are operating illegally and the prices are the same, so I wouldn’t risk it.
The best place to buy FitLine® products is from their own online website. Their shipping is fast and reliable, also comparatively cheap. They cover the costs of any damage that may occur during shipment. They also have 14 day refund policy from the point of purchase.
They will ship the products from the nearest distribution center, making sure you get your hands on them as fast as possible.
