What is the difference among essential and natural amino acids?

Essential amino acids are those that the organism is not able to synthesize and that require to be ingested by the individual. Natural amino acids are those that are formed by the organism.

There are living species that make every amino acid they need, for instance, the bacteria Escherichia coli, that does not have essential amino acids. Other species, like humans, require obtaining essential amino acids from the diet. Between the twenty different known amino acids that form proteins humans can make twelve of them and the remaining eight needs to be taken from the proteins they ingest with food.

The essential amino acids for humans are phenylalanine, isoleucine, lysine, histidine, methionine, threonine, tryptophane and valine.
