L-Arginine alpha-ketoglutarate, often abbreviated as AAKG, is a dietary supplement that combines arginine L-Arginine and alpha-ketoglutarate, a key intermediate in the Krebs cycle. L-arginine is a precursor of nitric oxide, which regulates blood flow and promotes vasodilation, while alpha-ketoglutarate is involved in energy production and protein synthesis. Together, these compounds are thought to support improved muscle recovery, increased endurance, and enhanced athletic performance.
