L-Arginine

120 CAPS | 750 MG

This workhorse nutrient performs numerous vital functions, including supporting the body’s normal wound healing and the secretion of key hormones such as insulin and glucagon. L-Arginine is a valuable precursor to nitric oxide which promotes vasodilation and cardiovascular health. It also helps maintain normal systolic and diastolic blood pressure and total and LDL cholesterol. 

  • Promotes healthy blood flow
  • Nourishes tissue healing
  • Supports production of nitric oxide
L-Arginine 750 mg (Metabolic Maintenance)

What is L-Arginine?
Though arginine is considered a nonessential amino acid, it becomes “conditionally essential” as a limiting substrate under stress conditions. This means certain disease states, trauma, or mental stress can stop the body from making enough L-arginine for the body to function effectively. L-arginine is needed to take part in numerous vital functions, including wound healing and the secretion of key hormones such as insulin and glucagon. L-Arginine is also a valuable precursor to nitric oxide which promotes vasodilation and cardiovascular health. It also helps maintain normal systolic and diastolic blood pressure and total and LDL cholesterol.

How does L-Arginine Work?
Nitric oxide, produced from L-arginine in virtually all mammalian cells, plays a role in many cellular processes; one of which is wound healing. Arginine has been shown to promote wound strength and collagen deposition in the healing of acute wounds.

L-Arginine supplementation has also been shown to support cardiovascular function through contributing to processes related to cholesterol balance, healthy blood flow, normal blood pressure, and the promotion of fat metabolism over fat synthesis. Oral supplementation of L-arginine in clinical trials demonstrated an effect of increased exercise-induced blood-flow, mediated by NO. Endothelial production of NO, specifically, is a key element in many of the processes associated with the development of atherosclerosis. Therefore, L-arginine supplementation and the NO production that happens, in turn, is a means to support vascular health in a variety of ways.

L-Arginine also plays an important role in fat metabolism. NO stimulates the oxidation of energy substrates (including fatty acids and glucose) throughout the body. The tissues in which this process takes place include, but are not limited to, fat tissue, the liver, skeletal muscle, and the heart. Dietary arginine supplementation may also increase insulin sensitivity and amplify its signaling mechanisms on net protein synthesis. Arginine supplementation may play a role in the use of dietary energy to favor muscle-building over fat synthesis in adults.

What are the Suggested Uses for L-Arginine?
Supports healthy production of nitric oxide (NO), which in turn contributes to:

  • Wound healing
  • Healthy blood flow and cardiovascular health
  • Regulation of fat metabolism and protein synthesis
