Essential amino acids are the ones that your body can’t make on its own. These are ones that come from food and need to be obtained in order to survive. Your body needs these acids because they are like building blocks of proteins and they’re needed for vital processes like building proteins and synthesis of hormones and neurotransmitters.

Hope this helps
