Spartan Amino Blend
Spartan Amino Blend is a research-grade liquid formulation combining essential and conditional amino acids: L-Arginine, L-Ornithine, L-Citrulline, L-Lysine, L-Glutamine, L-Proline, L-Taurine, L-Carnitine, and N-Acetylcysteine (NAC). Preclinical studies on the individual components suggest complementary roles in nitric oxide production, urea cycle support, protein synthesis, antioxidant defense, and metabolic regulation. In animal and in vitro models, these amino acids have been investigated for their potential synergistic effects on vascular function, exercise performance, and cellular resilience.[1][2]
Key Research Areas
- Nitric Oxide Production & Vascular Function – In rodent models, L-Arginine, L-Citrulline, and L-Ornithine support the arginine-nitric oxide pathway, enhancing vasodilation and blood flow in cardiovascular and exercise-related studies.[3][4]
- Protein Synthesis & Recovery Support – Preclinical investigations demonstrate L-Glutamine, L-Lysine, L-Proline, and L-Carnitine contribute to muscle protein turnover, collagen formation, and energy metabolism in models of muscle stress and recovery.[5][6]
- Antioxidant Defense & Metabolic Homeostasis – Animal studies suggest NAC and L-Taurine reduce oxidative stress, support glutathione synthesis, and modulate inflammatory responses in metabolic and exercise challenge paradigms.[7][8]
