What is L-Arginine-HCL L-Ornithine-HCL?

L-arginine and L-ornithine are two amino acids that work together to promote nitric oxide (Wikipedia) synthesis.

For this blended product, the base forms of the amino acids have been modified to include a hydrochloride group to reduce pH when mixed with a liquid and improve the taste of this bulk powder in solution.

In addition to its role in nitric oxide synthesis, L-arginine aids in protein synthesis and supports healthy immune function.

Arginine is a conditionally essential amino acid. It can be produced by the body. However, during heavy physical training cycles, inadequate amounts are synthesized in the liver from other amino acids. Arginine can be supplied from crude proteins and dietary supplements.

Arginine acts as a precursor to nitric oxide, a vasodilator that increases blood flow to working muscles. Arginine also plays a role in natural creatine production.

Creatine supplements are popular among body builders and competitive athletes. Creatine aids exercise performance, particularly during high-intensity, short-duration sports like high jumping and weightlifting.

L-ornithine is a nonessential amino acid synthesized and made from the breakdown of arginine during the citric acid cycle. It is also required for the formation of citrulline, proline, and glutamic acid, three amino acids that help supply energy to the body.

Ornithine and arginine are also involved in the formation of urea, reducing ammonia accumulation during strenuous exercise.

L-ornithine can significantly increase blood levels of L-arginine through the inhibition of arginase. Arginase is a major metabolic pathway for the conversion of L-arginine to L-ornithine.

Health Benefits of L-Arginine-HCL L-Ornithine-HCL

L-arginine HCl L-ornithine HCl is involved in amino acid synthesis and protein availability. It helps decrease muscle protein catabolism (breakdown) and increase protein synthesis.

Arginine enhances the effects of L-glutamine, a primary source of cellular fuel.

By encouraging the excretion of ammonia released during exercise, L-arginine HCl L-ornithine HCL also prevents the build up of lactic acid, which can create muscle fatigue.

Purity and Concentration of L-Arginine-HCL L-Ornithine-HCL

These pharmaceutical-grade amino acids are blended at a 2:1 ratio - two parts L-arginine HCl to one part L-ornithine HCl. This product contains no fillers, taste additives or anti-caking agents.
