The amino acid L-arginine helps transport oxygen to the blood, thus contributing to the normal relaxation and expansion of blood vessels, also supporting the permeability of blood vessels and the work of the cardiovascular system. The amino acid L-arginine also helps keep energy levels normal.
Scientists call L-arginine the magic molecule because the body converts L-arginine into nitric oxide, which promotes relaxation and dilation of blood vessels.
L-arginine is attributed important functions in the body:
- keeps energy levels normal,
- helps maintain normal blood pressure,
- supports the work of the cardiovascular system,
- supports vascular permeability,
- transports oxygen to the blood helping, e.g. in case of cold hands and feet,
- maintains good athletic performance.
Rich in vitamin C, blueberry works effectively with L-arginine. Blueberry is rich in vitamins of group A, E and B and folic acid, minerals potassium, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, iron and zinc.
The anthocyanins in blueberries help maintain blood vessel health and integrity. Anthocyanins provide protection against the harmful effects of free radicals, thus contributing to capillary health and vein elasticity. In addition, blueberries contribute to the normal metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids and proteins.
