Arginine is a non essential amino acid that is naturally occurring. While considered non-essential, it is used by the human body in a number of ways. Overall, it helps improve the immune system by stimulating the thymus gland, boosting white blood cell production and stimulating the release of growth hormone. Arginine helps with wound healing by helping with cell division and is an important part of the urea cycle, helping remove ammonia from the body. Arginine also helps the body with production of nitric oxide which can help reduce mild high blood pressure and help enhance athletic performance.

Calcium, a mineral vital to the human body, Calcium is necessary for many bodily functions, such as muscle contraction, and proper heart function.

Calcium HMB (ß-Hydroxy ß-methylbutyric acid) is a metabolite of the essential amino acid leucine. It is naturally produced in human body and small quantities can also be found in grapefruit, alfalfa, and catfish. Calcium HMB is used as a supplement because research has shown it to Increase sarcolemmal integrity via conversion to HMG-CoA and to enhance protein synthesis. It also helps in depression of protein degradation through inhibition of the ubiquitin pathway. Calcium HMB is proved to help muscle formulation so it is given to patients with HIV or AIDS and trauma victims with severe injuries. It is also used in treatment of cancer.

Glutamine is naturally created by the human body. Glutamine, a non-essential amino acid can also be found in high protein foods like red meat and nuts. Glutamine is used for proper mental function, maintaining muscle mass and controlling blood sugar levels.

Taurine is an organic acid which is one of the primary ingredients of bile, found in the lower intestine as well as in small amounts in the tissues. Taurine is an important element as it is required for fat digestion through the emulsification of dietary fats. It is also needed for the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins as well as the control of cholesterol serum levels. Taurine is also needed for the proper use of sodium, calcium and potassium in the body. Cell membrane integrity is also maintained with the help of taurine. Apart from these, research has shown that taurine can be very helpful in managing anxiety, hyperactivity, reduced brain functioning etc. Studies have also revealed that along with zinc, taurine is essential for proper vision. In case of a taurine deficiency there is vision impairment along with problems with fat metabolism, however since the body can synthesize the minimum amount of taurine required, this is a rarity.
