Why Amino Acids and Protein Are Essentia...

Dear Media
About this episode

Episode 51: This week, we’re joined by Angelo Keely, Co-founder and CEO of Kion, for an in-depth conversation about the power of amino acids and their essential  role in everything from muscle health to energy, skin, and overall wellness. Whether you're looking to optimize your nutrition or better understand how protein impacts your body, Angelo breaks it all down in a way that’s both informative and approachable.

Growing up in a health-conscious family, Angelo was immersed in the world of organic food and supplements from a young age. But it was a life-changing experience at 16 that truly propelled him into the wellness space. After a traumatic near-death accident left him bedridden, Angelo turned to nutrition, meditation, yoga, and breathwork to rebuild his body and mind—leading him to create a life centered around health optimization. In this episode, we explore the importance of essential amino acids, especially for women, and why they’re critical for maintaining energy, muscle, and healthy aging. Angelo shares his personal wellness routines, from the habits that keep his energy high to the tips he follows to stay healthy while juggling family and business, plus, his top three "dopamine menu" picks!
