L-Ar
ginine as a Protein Amino Acid.
L-Arginine is a protein amino acid. L-Arginine not only
supports the body's efforts to regulate blood pressure, it
enhances sexual function and boosts immune, heart and brain
functions.It is classified as a semi-essential or conditionally
essential amino acid.L-arginine is essential for young children
and for those with certain rare genetic disorders in which
synthesis of the amino acid is impaired. Some stress conditions
that put an increased demand on the body for the synthesis of
L-arginine include trauma (including surgical trauma), sepsis
and burns. Under these conditions, L-arginine becomes essential,
and it is then very important to ensure adequate dietary intake
of the amino acid to meet the increased physiological demands
created by these situations. In addition, L-arginine is a
precursor in the formation of nitric oxide, creatine,
polyamines, L-glutamate, L-prolin
e, agmatin (a possible neurotransmitter in the brain) and
the arginine-containing tetrapeptide tuftsin, believed to be an
immunomodulator. L-arginine is a glycogenic amino acid; it can
be converted to D-glucose and glycogen if needed by the body or
it can be catabolized to produce biological energy.
Benefits of L-Argini
ne
1 - Improves the beneficial expansion of blood vessels, allowing
blood to flow more freely through the cardiovascular system. 2 -
Assists the body in maintaining healthy blood pressure. 3 -
Minimizes cardiovascular dysfunction.
4 - Encourages healthy heart cells.
5 - Inhibits the clogging of platelets.
6 - Helps the kidneys control salt levels in the body, which,
left unchecked, can contribute to high blood pressure supports
normal digestion.
