Arginine & Citrulline Both are key intermediates in the urea cycle, where they participate in the detoxification of ammonia via the production of urea. In addition, any arginine not converted to urea enters general circulation where it is distributed to various tissues and metabolized for other uses such as protein synthesis.

- Benefits:

• Arginine and citrulline are two amino acids that are integral to protein metabolism and utilization, as well as to the maintenance of muscle tissue.
• Both are key intermediates in the urea cycle, where they participate in the detoxification of ammonia via the production of urea.
• In addition, any arginine not converted to urea enters general circulation where it is distributed to various tissues and metabolized for other uses such as protein synthesis.
• Arginine is necessary for the production of nitric oxide.
• L-arginine is produced in several ways. It can be synthesized from the amino acid citrulline through the breakdown of body proteins, or it can be obtained through dietary protein intake.
• L-arginine supplements may enhance exercise performance by increasing nitric oxidein the body, which improves blood flow and oxygenation to muscles.
• Like other single amino acids, it’s recommended to take L-arginine between meals for maximum absorption.
• After citrulline is consumed, some is converted to another amino acid called arginine.
• Suitable for Vegans
• Directions: take 1 capsule 2 times daily
