L-Arginine is one of 21 amino acids found naturally in our bodies. Amino acids are the building blocks that form proteins as well as being important sources of energy for carbohydrates and fats.
Aside from being a structural component of many proteins, arginine performs several functions within the body, making it important to our overall health and wellbeing. It helps in the production of nitric oxide (NO), a substance known to be an important determinant of cardiovascular performance (through its role in blood vessels and blood flow). It’s also a building block for collagen synthesis.
Derived from the protein fraction of peas (one of the richest natural sources), our high-strength formula contains pure, nutrition grade L-Arginine, providing 1000mg per tablet (many equivalent Brands provide just 500-700mg). We've also supplied ours in a body-ready L-form of this amino acid, so it is ready for absorption and doesn’t need to be broken down by digestive enzymes.
Arginine is a popular product, particularly with men. Women over 50 looking to support heart health, and active individuals may also choose to supplement with arginine. Being naturally found in red meat, poultry and dairy makes this a useful amino acid for anyone following a plant-based diet. (Interestingly, the average daily intake of L-arginine from foods is reported to be 4–6 grams.
We’ve chosen to encapsulate our high-strength L-Arginine in easy-to-swallow tablets instead of capsules, as this casing can deliver highly concentrated amounts of quality amino acid.
As with all our products, we manufacture and package our formula in UK factories working to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) to ensure our strict quality standards are always met.
Our Arginine tablets are suitable for both vegetarians and vegans.
