All Stars Arginine Mega Caps (150 pcs)

L-Arginine is an α-amino acid. Amino acids are chemical compounds that contain both an amino group and a carboxylic acid group. They are the smallest building blocks of proteins and play a crucial role in the formation of tissues in the body. The individual proteinogenic α-amino acids are linked together in chains during protein biosynthesis within the body's cells. The substance was first discovered in 1886 by the German chemist Ernst Schulze and his doctoral student. Arginine, with four nitrogen groups, is the amino acid with the highest nitrogen content. Therefore, this amino acid plays a vital role in the production of nitric oxide (NO). NO is found as a regulatory substance not only in blood vessels and the brain but also plays a control function in the production of white blood cells. L-Arginine is a widely distributed amino acid. It can be found in foods such as peas, meat, or cow's milk. However, these foods contain arginine not in its free form but as a protein component. In the human body, the amino acid is produced in the urea cycle, also known as the ornithine or Krebs-Henseleit cycle, from the amino acids aspartate and ornithine, as well as from carbamoyl phosphate.

Function & Effect:

L-Arginine is one of the most versatile amino acids in the human body. The substance is not only a component of the urea cycle but is also involved in the formation of nitric oxide. Additionally, arginine can be converted into various other bioactive substances such as creatine or agmatine.

Recommended Intake:

Take 2 capsules of arginine per day. Take 2 capsules about 45 minutes before training. On training-free days, take 2 capsules with breakfast. Swallow with sufficient liquid.
