Histidine
Histidine is one of 22 amino acids derived from foods with high protein content, as well as certain grains. It is one of the aromatic amino acids that start out being an essential amino acid in human infants, but then later become a non- Acid as the body begins to synthesize it from imidazole, an organic compound and component of the aromatic ring in the acid's chemical structure.
