★What is L-Arginine Alpha-Ketoglutarate (AAKG)?
AAKG is a compound salt made of the amino acid L-Arginine and Alpha-Ketoglutarate. It is a potent precursor to Nitric Oxide (NO), widely used in pre-workout supplements to enhance blood flow, muscle "pump," and nutrient delivery to muscle tissues.
★Why is AAKG better than standard L-Arginine?
The addition of Alpha-Ketoglutarate improves the stability and absorption of Arginine in the body. AAKG is more effective at raising Nitric Oxide levels and supporting the Krebs cycle for better ATP (energy) production compared to L-Arginine alone.
★What is the difference between AAKG 2:1 and AAKG 1:1?
The ratio refers to the proportion of L-Arginine to Alpha-Ketoglutarate. AAKG 2:1 (two parts arginine to one part AKG) is the industry standard for bodybuilding supplements, offering a higher concentration of Arginine for maximum vasodilatory effects.
★How does AAKG enhance workout performance?
By increasing Nitric Oxide production, AAKG causes vasodilation (widening of blood vessels). This increases oxygen and nutrient delivery to working muscles, delays fatigue, and speeds up the removal of metabolic waste like lactic acid.
★What is the recommended dosage for AAKG powder?
The typical dosage for pre-workout performance ranges from 1,500 mg to 3,500 mg, taken about 30 minutes before exercise. For B2B clients, we provide specific bulk density data to ensure accurate encapsulation or tableting.
★Is your AAKG powder water-soluble?
Yes, our AAKG powder is highly soluble in water, making it perfect for transparent pre-workout drink mixes. It dissolves quickly without leaving significant residue or gritty texture.
★What quality certifications do you provide for AAKG?
As a reliable factory and supplier, we provide a full documentation suite for every batch, including COA (Certificate of Analysis), HPLC purity testing (≥98%), MSDS, and ISO/GMP compliance certificates.
