L-Arginine is a conditionally essential amino acid—meaning it is typically produced by the body but may become essential during periods of illness, stress, or in certain vulnerable populations. It is naturally present in many protein-rich foods, such as meat, fish, poultry, whole grains, soy products, and dairy.
While L-Arginine plays a key role in protein synthesis, it also offers several additional health benefits. One of its most important functions is supporting the production of nitric oxide, a compound that helps dilate blood vessels (vasodilation) and improve blood flow. This process, which occurs in oxygen-rich environments, allows the body to regulate circulation based on varying physiological demands.
