This pure product provides 2 grams of L-Arginine per daily dose. The sustained release capsules ensure a long-term slow release into the blood.
L-Arginine from Thorne contains 500 mg l-arginine per capsule. The vegetable capsule is of the sustained release type. This technology ensures a long-term slow release of the active substance. By using this delayed release system, Thorne has developed an arginine product that is not only strong, but also has a longer chance to have an effect in the body. This also keeps the substance active in the body for a lot longer.
About L-Arginine
L-Arginine is an amino acid. In principle, the adult human body can synthesize this amino acid itself from the amino acids ornithine, glutamine, glutamate and proline. However, a significant amount of the arginine that our body uses comes from our food. Arginine is an important amino acid for health. It has various functions in the body. The amino acid is incorporated into various proteins, it can be converted into other amino acids (such as ornithine and proline) and it plays an important role in the urea cycle. The urea cycle regulates the excretion of excess nitrogen. During the breakdown of proteins, ammonia is released. This ammonia is converted into urea together with carbon dioxide. This allows excess nitrogen to be excreted during urination.
