Arginine Alpha Ketoglutarate Powder

 

Arginine alpha ketoglutarate powder is a complex formed by L-arginine and alpha-ketoglutaric acid (AKG) bonded by salt bonds. Alpha-ketoglutarate, as an intermediate in the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA), can enhance the stability and bioavailability of arginine.

 

Its water solubility is better than that of ordinary arginine, making it suitable for sports drinks or fast-absorbing supplements. The AKG part can neutralize the alkalinity of arginine and reduce gastrointestinal irritation.

1. Improve athletic performance

• Nitric oxide (NO) pathway: The arginine in arginine alpha ketoglutarate powder is a precursor for NO synthesis and can dilate blood vessels to increase muscle blood flow and nutrient delivery.

 

• Energy metabolism synergy: AKG promotes TCA cycle and accelerates ATP production, especially for high-intensity interval training (HIIT).

 

2. Anti-fatigue

• Ammonia toxicity removal: AKG helps convert ammonia produced by exercise into glutamine, reducing fatigue.
• Muscle protein synthesis: Arginine activates the mTOR pathway, but its effect alone is weak and needs to be combined with protein intake.

 

3. Enhance immunity
Arginine alpha ketoglutarate powder may improve endothelial function. Arginine also supports lymphocyte proliferation and enhances immunity, but more data is needed to support it.

 

 

1. Special populations

• Middle-aged and elderly people: may improve muscle attenuation, but further research is needed.
• Postoperative rehabilitation: assist wound healing, doctor's guidance is required.

 

2. Sports nutrition

Before training: AAKG + carbohydrates can improve pumping and endurance.

After training: Arginine alpha ketoglutarate powder combined with branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) can accelerate exercise recovery.

 

3. Contraindications and side effects

• Avoid people: patients with active herpes and severe liver and kidney diseases.
• Common reactions: Doses > 10g/day may cause diarrhea or hypotension.
