Product Overview

High purity L-Arginine white crystalline powder with ≥98% purity for feed, food, and supplement applications.

L-Arginine is a conditionally essential amino acid that plays a central role in protein synthesis, nitric oxide production, and metabolic regulation. As the primary physiological precursor to nitric oxide (NO), it acts as a vasodilator, helping relax blood vessels and improve blood flow throughout the body. This unique mechanism underpins its wide-ranging applications in cardiovascular health, sports nutrition, immune function, and metabolic support.

At Henan Liyin Biotech, we supply high-purity L-Arginine in the form of a white crystalline powder, with a minimum purity of ≥98% (typically 98.5–101.5% on dried basis), compliant with USP, EP, and FCC standards. Our product is available in Feed Grade, Food Grade, and Supplement Grade to serve applications across animal nutrition, human food, dietary supplements, and personal care.

Key Functional Properties

Nitric Oxide Production & Cardiovascular Support

L-Arginine serves as the exclusive precursor for nitric oxide (NO) synthesis. NO is a critical signaling molecule that relaxes blood vessels, supporting healthy blood pressure levels and cardiovascular function. Research suggests L-arginine may help reduce blood pressure and improve symptoms of angina and peripheral arterial disease.

Sports Performance & Recovery

As a key amino acid in protein synthesis, L-Arginine supports muscle function and exercise performance. It plays a role in growth hormone release and may help reduce recovery time after exercise.

Mitochondrial & Metabolic Health

Recent research published in Cardiovascular Diabetology (2024) demonstrated that L-Arginine supplementation improves mitochondrial function, increases PGC-1α levels, and supports mitochondrial biogenesis and antioxidant capacity. These findings suggest potential benefits for metabolic health and energy homeostasis.

Growth & Immune Support

L-Arginine is essential for growth and development in young animals and humans. It stimulates the release of growth hormone, supports immune function, and plays a role in wound healing and tissue repair.

Weight Management

A 2025 meta-analysis published in Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy found that L-Arginine supplementation significantly reduced waist circumference and total body weight, with doses exceeding 15g/day showing more pronounced effects.

Quality Assurance & Documentation
