Growth Hormone Support -
Supports healthy growth hormone level. Taken one hour before physical activity or bedtime, arginine and OKG may support healthy growth hormone production and may also promote healthy muscle protein synthesis, muscle recovery, and lean muscle mass when combined with physical training. Use with C-Glutamine for best results.
What Is It?
Growth Hormone Support contains the amino acids
arginine and ornithine. These amino acids may synergistically
support healthy growth hormone production.
Growth hormone is naturally released by the pituitary
gland in response to sleep and exercise in order to help
replenish tissues. It supports muscle protein synthesis,
moderates the breakdown of muscle tissue and promotes
fat utilization for energy.*
Uses For Growth Hormone Support
Supports Growth Hormone Production And Protein
Synthesis: Arginine supports healthy growth hormone
synthesis and is also a precursor for protein synthesis.
Ornithine alpha-ketoglutarate (OKG) is composed of two
molecules of ornithine and one molecule of alpha-ketoglutarate.
OKG has demonstrated the ability to support
healthy nitrogen balance, important for healthy muscle
function. OKG also promotes healthy polyamine, arginine
and glutamine levels, important metabolites for muscle
protein support. One study demonstrated the potential
for arginine and ornithine in combination to support lean
muscle mass when combined with physical training.
A second study also suggests a possible role of arginine
and ornithine in supporting lean muscle mass and
strength training when combined with a high intensity
exercise program.*
What Is The Source?
l-Arginine HCl is derived from the fermentation of soy and
other vegetable sources and is ultra-filtered and highly
purified. Ornithine alpha-ketoglutarate is synthetically
produced.
