    Glossary Arginine

    amino acid involved in protein synthesis and nitric oxide production

    Arginine, also known as L-Arginine, is an amino acid that plays a crucial role in various bodily functions, including protein synthesis, wound healing, and the production of nitric oxide, which helps relax blood vessels and improve circulation. It is considered semi-essential, meaning the body can produce it, but supplementation may be necessary during periods of illness or stress.
