Compositions based on amino acids for improving the myocardial ventricular function in patients suffering from diabetes

Abstract From the Canadian patent

Compositions based on amino acids are described for , improving the myocardial ventricular function in patients suffering from diabetes, particularly but not exclusively type 2 diabetes. The compositions according to the invention comprise up to 75% of the branched chain amino acids leucine isoleucine and valine, as active ingredients. Preferably the , compositions also comprise, as further active ingredients up , to 50% of threonine and lysine. Other essential amino acids are preferably also provided, in particular methionine phenylalanine, histidine, tryphtophan, as well as non essential amino acids, in particular tyrosine and/or cyst(e)ine (i.e. cystine and cysteine).
