Health Benefits of Arginine L-arginine is an amino acid that helps the body build protein. Your body usually makes all the L-arginine it needs. L-arginine is also found in most protein-rich foods, including fish, red meat, poultry, soy, whole grains, beans and dairy products. As a supplement, L-arginine can be used orally and topically. Arginine is classified as a semi-essential or conditionally essential amino acid, depending on the developmental stage and health status of the individual. Arginine plays an important role in cell division, wound healing, removing ammonia from the body, immune function, and the release of hormones. It is a precursor for the synthesis of nitric oxide (NO), making it important in the regulation of blood pressure. Arginine is necessary for T-cells to function in the body, and can lead to their deregulation if depleted. Arginine is the immediate precursor of nitric oxide, an important signaling molecule which can act as a second messenger, as well as an int...

Beta-alanine is a non-essential amino acid. Most amino acids are building blocks of proteins, but beta-alanine is used to make other chemicals in the body such as carnosine. Beta-alanine binds histidine in the muscles and the brain. The binding creates carnosine. Carnosine is a potent intracellular buffer that stops hydrogen from accumulating. During exercise, hydrogen levels increase, which leads to a burning sensation in your muscles. When that burning becomes too uncomfortable, you stop working out, whether you were truly finished or not. Using supplements of beta-alanine aids in enhancing carnosine levels by 80%. The increase in carnosine levels can prevent lactic acid from building up and causing muscle fatigue during physical exertion. People use beta-alanine for athleticperformance and improving physical performance in elderly adults. It is also used for symptoms of menopause, age-related muscle loss (sarcopenia), and many other conditions.   Improves Exercise Endur...
