Anti-ageing

Have you heard much about natural HGH which consists of amino acids such as Arginine and Lysine in high quantities which appartently stimulate the pituatary galnd to release HGH which is good for a whole range of things from energy to anti-ageing.

Amino acids Arginine & Lysine.

Arginine (non-essential) and lysine (essential) are two amino acids (building blocks of proteins) which stimulate neurotransmitters and hormones such as dopamine which is involved in cognition, motor activity, motivation, sleep, mood, attention, and learning.

Human Growth Hormone (HGH) is also needed by the brain (Pituitary Gland) and its production is stimulated by the availability of Arginine and its functions include immune system stimulation, increases muscle mass, protein synthesis, improves calcium efficiency in the mineralisation of bone, lipolysis (fat breakdown) and promotes effective usage of glucose in the liver.

The inclusion of arginine and lysine in this product is to increase not only the production of Hgh but also for the effects on the nervous system via neurotransmitters and the production of hormones that support mood stabilisation.

Food sources of Arginine & Lysine:

Food sources of Lysine - meat, cheese , certain fish (such as cod and sardines), sprouts, amarynth, quinoa, lentils, spinach and eggs.

Foods sources of Arginine - dairy products, beef, pork, poultry and wild game, seafood, wheat germ and flour, chocolate, oats, carob, buckwheat, granola, oatmeal, nuts, seeds, chick peas and cooked soybeans.
