Life Light L-Arginine 500 mg

Arginine is a proteinogenic amino acid. Its name is derived from the Latin word "argentum" (silver), because the amino acid could first be isolated as silver. This amino acid has the highest mass fraction of nitrogen of all proteinogenic amino acids.

• Arginine is also a metabolite of the urea cycle in which the ammonia, gained from the decomposition of nitrogen compounds (e.g. amino acids), is converted to urea.
• Arginine is developed in the urea cycle and supports the detoxification of the body from ammonia.
• The human being is able to synthesize arginine itself. However, the quantities produced are not sufficient to cover the demand.
• Together with lysine and histidine, arginine belongs to the group of "basic" amino acids and hexone bases.
• Arginine is water-soluble and has an alkaline reaction (due to the binding of proteins).
• Arginine is a source of high-energy nitrogen phosphate compounds in organisms.
