Amino - S4
Amino S4 is a carefully made balance of 4 amino acids (AA) designed to increase attraction, increase nutritional value and to help stimulate feeding activity.
Why Amino Acids?
AAs are building blocks of protein and are present in food-based products incuding vegetable’s, animal products such as milk, eggs and meat as well as in plant-based life such as duckweed, seaweed and aquatic ferns. Using the protein profiles of AAs carp can detect and source a meal that is of high nutritional value, studies have indicated that from their olfactory rosettes on the sides of their head, they can detect AAs that are naturally dispersed by their food such as snails, bloodworm, and the huge range of other tiny invertebrates.
Simply put if amino’s are there, food is there, and the higher concentration of AAs in one area, the higher the attraction of that area. Which for many is why aminos are popular to use as a coating on boilies, an ingredient in base mixes or in glugs as a natural attractant to make a HNV bait for carp and fish that will keep them coming back for more.
Included in Amino S4 are:
Lysine: Lysine is beneficial to fish because it helps absorption of calcium, maintains healthy blood vessels, produces antibodies, enzymes, collagen, and repairs of tissues and its importance for muscle development.
Methionine: Suitable levels of methionine improve fish growth performance and have been widely demonstrated in various fish species.
Threonine: Threonine plays an important role in collagen and elastin. These proteins provide structure to skin and connective tissue. They also help with forming blood clots.
Tryptophan: Tryptophan helps maintain nitrogen balance. Tryptophan availability dictates serotonin production and so can indirectly affect stress responses in fish.
