Arginine
-Causes the secretion of growth hormone (GH)
-It is a precursor to creatine
(enhances exercise performance).
-It is a precursor of nitric
oxide (initiates and maintains erection).
-It helps detoxify ammonia -It
has been found to help improve wound healing
-It supports the immune system
Ornithine
-Proven GH releaser
-Studies have shown a decrease in
body fat and an increase in muscle mass.
-Shares many properties with
Arginine.
Glutamine
-Studies have shown glutamine to raise GH levels.
-Neuro transmitter in the brain
(essential for proper function in the brain).
-Vital to immune system functions.
-Anticatabolic (protects muscle
mass).
Lysine
-This is an Arginine buster (synergistic).
-Effects bone formation, height,
and genital function.
-Helps in calcium absorption
-Fights cold sore and herpie
viruses
-Used to form Carintine (popular
fat burner and boosts exercise performance).
Glycine
-Studies have shown it causes an increase in GH
levels
-An exercise enhancer.
-A precursor to protein, DNA,
phospholipids, collagen, and creatine.
-Used in the liver to eliminate
toxin.
-Necessary for proper central
nervous system functioning.
-Affects cellular hydration and
cell volume.
Valine
-It is a branched chain amino acid (BCAA).
-It is an important part of
muscle tissue
-Used for energy by muscles
during exercise (exercise eats up this amino acid).
-It plays a role in tissue
repair, nitrogen balance.
