L-ARGININE

L-Arginine – Arginine is a chemical precursor to nitric oxide (a blood vessel-widening agent called a vasodilator). Early evidence suggests that arginine may help treat medical conditions that improve with increased vasodilation. These conditions include chest pain, atherosclerosis (clogged arteries), heart disease or failure, erectile dysfunction, intermittent claudication/peripheral vascular disease, and vascular headaches. L-arginine is converted in the body into a chemical called nitric oxide. Nitric oxide causes blood vessels to open wider for improved blood flow. L-arginine also stimulates the release of growth hormone, insulin, and other substances in the body. With the increased blood flow using Arginine, the individual should feel more energized. Used in conjuntion with exercise, Arginine will improve performance and energy, and assist in the removal of fats from fat cells.

L-ARGININE DOSAGE

• Typically, L-Arginine is prescribed in 5mL or 10mL vials, with a dosage of 100mg/mL.
• Prescribed dosages are often for 0.5mL per day, taken intramuscularly.
• We recomend taking Arginine on workout days, prior to training, for best results.

HOW TO ADMINISTER L-ARGININE

• Using a 25g needle, inject 0.5ml of Arginine prior to working out.
• As an alternative, Arginine can be injected Using an insulin syringe, inject 0.5ml of Arginine prior to training.

L-CARNITINE

L-Carnitine – Carnitine is an amino acid which is required for the transport and breakdown of body fat for the generation of metabolic energy. Studies show that L-Carnitine can decrease fat mass, preserve muscle during exercise, and reduce muscle fatigue. Further research over the last decade has shed new light on the importance of L-carnitine as a regulator of skeletal muscle fuel selection, which means it is needed to determine whether muscle tissue utilizes carbohydrates or fat for energy. When taken orally, L-Carnitine requires a high dose to promote fat tissue breakdown. This is because only a fraction of carnitine is absorbed during oral digestion. When administered by injection, nutrients like L-Carnitine are completely absorbed by the body.

L-CARNITINE DOSAGE

• Typically, Carnitine is prescribed in 5mL or 10mL vials, with a dosage of 250mg/mL.
• Prescribed dosages are often for 0.5mL per day, taken intramuscularly.
• We recomend taking Carnitine on workout days, prior to training, for best results.

HOW TO ADMINISTER L-CARNITINE

• Using a 25g needle, inject 0.5ml of Carnitine prior to working out.
• As an alternative, Carnitine can be injected Using an insulin syringe, inject 0.5ml of Carnitine prior to training.
