Good to know
Arginine is found in many protein-rich foods. Here are the key facts in brief.
A protein building block
L-arginine is one of the protein-forming amino acids. The body can produce it itself. We also obtain it from protein-rich foods.
Chemical structure
An arginine molecule contains four nitrogen atoms, more than any other protein-forming amino acid.
What ‘base’ means
‘Base’ refers to L-arginine in its free form. Unlike L-arginine hydrochloride, it is not present as a hydrochloride salt. You can stir the powder into water, juice or a shake.
Understanding the label
L-arginine is available in various forms. When comparing quantities, it is the amount of arginine contained that counts, not the weight of the powder. We do not assume that any form results in better absorption or efficacy.
Our product
L-arginine base
Our only ingredient is L-arginine base. According to the declaration, a daily serving of 5 g contains 5 g of L-arginine.
Salt form
L-arginine HCl
Pure, anhydrous L-arginine hydrochloride contains, by calculation, around 83% arginine. Approximately 6 g of this corresponds to 5 g of arginine.
Mixture
Amino acid complexes
These contain several amino acids. Compare the explicitly stated amount of L-arginine per daily serving.
The raw material
Our L-arginine is derived from fermentation. This is how it is produced.
Produced by microorganisms
During fermentation, microorganisms produce the amino acid, typically from a sugar-containing nutrient solution. The arginine is then separated, purified and crystallised.
Labelled as vegan
Fermentation alone does not make a product vegan. Culture media and excipients also count. Our L-arginine is labelled as vegan.
A single ingredient
The pouch contains only L-arginine base, with no fillers, anti-caking agents, flavourings or sweeteners.
Diet
Arginine is found in many protein-rich foods, particularly in seeds, nuts and pulses. All values are per 100 g.
Values per 100 g according to USDA FoodData Central (SR Legacy): Pumpkin and squash seed kernels, dried (FDC 170556); Peanuts, all types, raw (172430); Lentils, raw (172420); Oats (169705). The values represent the total arginine content, predominantly as a component of proteins. The content depends on the foodstuff and how it is processed. Around 93 g of dried pumpkin seeds contain approximately 5 g of arginine.
Important information
Please read this information before taking the product for the first time. If you have any questions, your doctor or pharmacist will be able to help.
Not suitable
You should avoid taking L-arginine supplements following a heart attack. This product is intended for adults.
Consult a doctor beforehand
In cases of cardiovascular disease, asthma or known allergies, as well as during pregnancy and while breastfeeding.
Medicines and tolerability
If you are taking any medicines, check with your doctor or pharmacist before use. This applies in particular to blood pressure-lowering medicines, anticoagulants, nitrates and PDE-5 inhibitors such as sildenafil. L-arginine may cause gastrointestinal discomfort. If you cannot tolerate it, stop taking it.
Not a substitute for medical treatment
Food supplements are not intended to treat medical conditions. Treatment for high blood pressure or other conditions should be carried out under medical supervision.

L-arginine base
One ingredient, without fillers or anti-caking agents.
Six level measuring scoops (supplied) equal 5 g. If you want to be very precise, use a precision scale.
Ideally with 200 ml of juice or a shake. You can also stir it into water. You’ll find an idea with orange juice, berries and banana in our recipe.
You can fit it into your daily routine. Stick to a total of 5 g per day. The recommended daily intake does not name a specific time of day; it provides for one serving per day.
One pouch contains 500 g, which is 100 daily servings of 5 g each. At 5 g a day, it lasts 100 days. For one daily serving, you need six level measuring scoops.
‘Base’ refers to L-arginine in its free form. Unlike L-arginine hydrochloride, it is not present as a hydrochloride salt. It reacts as a base in water.
Pure, anhydrous L-arginine hydrochloride contains, by calculation, around 83% arginine. Approximately 6 g of it corresponds to 5 g of arginine. According to the declaration, our daily serving of 5 g of L-arginine base contains 5 g of L-arginine.
Our L-arginine is labelled as vegan and is produced by fermentation. In this process, microorganisms produce the amino acid.
For example, in pumpkin seeds, peanuts and other nuts, pulses and cereals. The content depends on the food and how it is processed.
No. No health claims are currently authorised for L-arginine in the EU. We therefore make no promises regarding its effects.
You should avoid taking L-arginine supplements following a heart attack. The product is intended for adults. If you have cardiovascular disease, asthma or known allergies, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your doctor before taking it.
Yes. Check with your doctor or pharmacist before use. This applies in particular to blood pressure-lowering medication, anticoagulants, nitrates and PDE-5 inhibitors such as sildenafil.
L-arginine may cause gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea or diarrhoea. If you experience any adverse reactions, stop taking it and consult a doctor if symptoms persist.
Please stick to the recommended daily intake of 5 g. This limit must not be exceeded.
No. The only ingredient is L-arginine base, with no fillers, anti-caking agents, flavourings or sweeteners.
Moisture can cause clumping. This alone is not a reliable indicator of whether the powder is still fit for consumption. If you notice an unusual odour, discolouration or moisture ingress, please stop using it and contact us.
Store in the tightly sealed pouch in a cool, dry place, away from direct light and out of the reach of young children. The best-before date is printed on the pouch.
