Title: What is AAKG Arginine Alpha Ketoglutarate?


1
What is AAKG Arginine Alpha Ketoglutarate?
  • Mylife Therapeutics

  • AAKG is a salt of arginine and alpha-ketoglutaric
    amino acids. It is an intermediate compound in
    the reactions that produce energy in the human
    body.
  • It is the source of glutamate and glutamine amino
    acids. Alpha ketoglutarate is available in
    various forms of salts. Ornithine and alpha
    ketoglutarate is the most typical combination.
  • Arginine or L-arginine is a component of proteins
    that stimulates the release of various hormones,
    including glucagon, insulin, and growth hormone.
    It also plays an essential role in maintaining
    heart function, immunity, and normal blood
    pressure.

Benefits of Using AAKG Arginine Alpha
Ketoglutarate
4
1. Enhanced Endurance Arginine alpha
ketoglutarate delivers more oxygen and nutrients
to muscles. This increases the amount of time one
can endure exercising. As a consequence,
endurance athletes are able to run faster and
longer. Moreover, as muscle endurance is
enhanced, this means you can do more reps and
lift heavier weights in the gym.

2. Decreased Muscle Fatigue
  • Another major reason why athletes and
    bodybuilders use AAKG is for reducing muscle
    fatigue. It helps to pump more blood into muscles
    which makes them fatigue slowly and recover
    quickly.

How is Arginine Alpha Ketoglutarate Supplement
Taken?
  • Pure AAKG has no flavor and tastes slightly
    bitter. Therefore, it is usually taken with
    juice, water, or electrolyte drinks. Despite
    this, you will be able to taste it in the fluids.

7
AAKG Dosage and Timing
  • It usually comes in the form of powder. The
    recommended dosage of AAKG is 3 to 6 grams. One
    serving of arginine alpha ketoglutarate is about
    1/2 teaspoon. One can take a maximum of 3
    servings or 9 to 18 grams of AAKG in a day.
  • The best time to take arginine alpha
    ketoglutarate is 20 minutes before starting
    exercising. This gives it the necessary time to
    enter the nitric oxide cycle and start working.

8
Storing Arginine Alpha Ketoglutarate
  • Amino acids take on moisture, and since arginine
    alpha ketoglutarate is an amino acid, it is no
    exception. Therefore, once you open the jar
    containing AAKG, it needs to be stored in a cool
    and dark place away from moisture and direct
    sunlight.
  • Due to its moisture-absorbing nature, it is
    recommended to consume arginine alpha
    ketoglutarate within 60 days of opening the jar.
    Although clumped AAKG is difficult to scoop, it
    still works.

  • AAKG or arginine alpha ketoglutarate is among
    the most popular dietary supplements used today
    for bodybuilding and exercising. As such, it is
    offered by a galore of providers and comes in
    different packaging quantities.
