Black Widow Arginine Alpha-Ketoglutarate (AAKG) is a salt formed by combining two molecules of the amino acid Arginine and one molecule of alpha-ketoglutarate.
AAKG seems to be involved in amino acid synthesis and protein availability.
Black Widow’s AAKG may:
•Increase muscle size and strength
•Optimise heart / circulatory health
•Reduce body fat
•Stimulate the immune system
•Decrease muscle protein catabolism (breakdown)
•Increase male sexual function
AAKG may also promote the secretion of anabolic hormones such as insulin and growth hormone and increase amino acid metabolism (glutamine and arginine).
