Amino Acid
What is L-Arginine?
Arginine is a conditionally essential basic amino acid involved primarily in urea metabolism and excretion, as well as in DNA synthesis and protein production. It is an important precursor of nitric oxide (NO) and thus plays a role in the dilation of blood vessels.
The L-Arginine used in this product is pharmaceutical grade.
Benefits:
Conditionally Essential Amino Acid
Nitric Oxide Precursor
Support proper nitrogen balance
Supports liver detoxification
Supports exercise recovery
L-Arginine Supports:
L-Arginine is required to synthesize nitric oxide in the body. It helps blood vessels to relax and expand, thus allowing more blood, oxygen and nutrients to flow to organs and muscles. Nitric oxide is a powerful neurotransmitter that helps blood vessels relax and help improve circulation. With age, nitric oxide levels fall, and studies show that a 40yr old is likely only making about half or less the amount of nitric oxide than a 20yr old.
Arginine plays an essential role in the maintenance of proper nitrogen balance through its participation in the metabolism ammonia and excretion of urea. Arginine supports normal liver detoxification processes, helping your body eliminate toxic materials and supporting overall metabolic health.
L-Arginine is classified as a “conditionally essential” amino acid. In certain stressful situations, such as illness or injury, the body requires higher levels of these amino acids from the diet. Since exercise is basically controlled injury of muscle tissue, L-Arginine supplement can benefit exercise recovery.
