Arginine POWDER Ajinomoto® Ajipure®

Arginine is an ‘essential’ amino acid for children in the growth phase, while for adults it is considered ‘conditionally essential’, as it can be synthesised by the body, particularly in the kidneys and liver. It is also introduced through the diet via meat, dried fruits, and certain protein-rich plant foods such as legumes. Its importance becomes especially evident in situations of psychophysical stress, restrictive diets, physical trauma, burns, intense catabolic states, and convalescence.

Yamamoto® Nutrition uses Ajinomoto® Ajipure® L-Arginine, obtained through a natural plant-based fermentation process, ensuring pharmaceutical-grade purity and exceptional bioavailability. This premium raw material guarantees rapid absorption and effective physiological activity.

Arginine plays numerous vital roles in the body, particularly valued in bodybuilding for its stimulation of nitric oxide (NO) production. This leads to vasodilation, improving muscle oxygenation and nutrient delivery during physical effort.

Its key physiological roles include:

• Gluconeogenesis (glucose synthesis) in situations of need
• Support for protein synthesis
• Synthesis of creatine and other amino acid derivatives
• Nitrogenous waste disposal
• Immunostimulating action
• Antioxidant action
• Promotion of tissue healing processes
