Ingredients
Supplements and medicines are examined and evaluated solely from the point of view of their chemical composition, based on the relevant scientific studies. No medical opinion is expressed on curative functions. If a medicinal or prescription substance is involved, the overall judgement must be made by the treating physician.
Let us examine the most significant ingredients in order of quantity as indicated on the label. I provide a brief summary for reasons of space. For the full text, studies and bibliography, I highly recommend clicking on the ingredient and, if you want to go deeper, it is perhaps a little complex reading because these are scientific studies, but it clarifies the ingredient/health relationship.
L-leucine is an amino acid that the human body cannot produce but must be assimilated through intake of foods such as whole-grain flours, nuts, and others. Amino acids play a key metabolic function in the human body and are building blocks of proteins.
Corn maltodextrin, a group of complex carbohydrates, or polysaccharides, that are widely used in the food and beverage industry for their functional properties. It is used as an additive in the food industry to sweeten foods. More digestible than other carbohydrates, it is a white powder that provides only 4 calories per gram and low amounts of fiber, fat, and protein. Anti-inflammatory and modifier of collagen turnover.
L-valine is one of three branched-chain amino acids, along with leucine and isoleucine that are particularly important for muscle repair and growth. Valine plays a crucial role in energy supply, stimulates muscle regeneration, and is involved in various metabolic processes.
L-proline is considered a nonessential amino acid synthesized from glutamic acid, but is thought to be an essential component of collagen and for proper functioning of tendons and joints.
Glycine is the simplest amino acid and is a basic building block of proteins that plays a role in tissue protection.
Taurine is an amino acid naturally produced by the human body and has important functions in the cardiovascular circulatory system, skeletal muscle, and nervous system.
L-phenylalanine important for the production of neurotransmitters such as dopamine, norepinephrine, and adrenaline, as well as being a precursor to the amino acid tyrosine, which in turn is involved in the synthesis of proteins, enzymes, and thyroid hormones.
L-ornithine clorhydrate plays a key role in the urea cycle, a metabolic process that helps eliminate ammonia, a toxic waste product, by turning it into urea, which is then excreted from the body through urine. This makes L-ornithine hydrochloride important for maintaining liver function and preventing the accumulation of harmful substances in the body.
The formula of this supplement includes as many as 4 sweeteners: Aspartame, Acesulfame K, L-tryptophan, and Zinc Gluconate.
