L-Arginine(gree-form)
Ingredient research · L-Arginine
L-Arginine is an amino acid the body uses to make nitric oxide, a signaling molecule that relaxes blood vessels, and to build proteins and clear ammonia. Supplementation may improve blood flow and modestly benefit blood pressure or erectile function in some people, while exercise-performance benefits are less dependable.
- Supports endothelial function and blood-flow responses.
- Supports glucose-tolerance and insulin-response measures in adults with obesity or prediabetes.
- Supports delayed progression to type 2 diabetes in adults with impaired glucose tolerance and metabolic syndrome.
- Supports triglyceride markers.
