I discovered Bragg's Liquid Amino Acids several years ago when I decided to stop eating all the processed and unhealthy foods that I had been so used to eating. After tons of research, I realized that these foods were not only causing me to feel like absolute crap, but it was also undoubtedly shaving precious years off my life.

The most painful and annoying sores to get around and in your mouth are cold sores. One of the best ways to prevent and treat cold sore outbreaks would be with an essential amino acid called lysine. Lysine is an amino acid your body needs to help absorb calcium so you can have strong bones, healthy teeth, hair, and skin, as well as proper collagen formation. Lysine also helps control the amount of another amino acid in your body called arginine which is an amino acid in your body that replicated the herpes simplex viruses which cause more cold sore outbreaks.

When you pay a visit to your local health food store or even your grocery store these days, you can find a well stocked display of protein powders and protein drinks.

Although in some cases protein drinks serve a purpose, are they really necessary for the normal person eating a healthy diet and more importantly are powder protein drinks good for you?

Whether you are a vegetarian looking to broaden the nutrients you consume or an individual working on building lean body mass, there are several healthy options for adding protein to your diet. It's not healthy to eat a diet that is low in protein.

Adding protein to your diet, in a healthy manner, means doing so without adding additional fat to your diet.

1. Eat more protein by eating nuts and seeds.
