AAKG, also commonly known as Arginine AKG or arginine alpha ketoglutarate, contains the essential amino acid, L-arginine. Human biochemistry depends on arginine to perform various important functions.
It assists with the elimination of ammonia by regulating the urea cycle. Arginine also serves to promote healthy functioning of the immune system. Further, it is known to be a key player in protein synthesis.
Alpha ketoglutarate is vitally important for the efficient metabolism of certain amino acids, as well as for accommodating the production of energy.
Arginine AAKG is therapeutically used to treat liver issues, kidney disease, cataracts and various stomach and intestinal disorders.
Further, it is effective at relieving symptoms of erectile dysfunction and sterility in men. AAKG is also used to increase sexual desire and performance.
However, the most common usage of AAKG supplements is for bodybuilding and athletic performance purposes. Because it assists the liver in breaking down harmful substances, like ammonia, it allows for longer, less painful workouts.
