Aakg consists of 2 arginine molecules bonded to 1 alpha ketoglutarate molecule in a perfect 2:1 ratio. Research has shown that supplementation of aakg assists with increased protein synthesis, helps to decrease protein catabolism and supports insulin secretion thus assisting the uptake of amino acids and glucose into the muscle cells. Aakg"s anabolic potential makes it a must for all athletes desiring to increase muscle mass while shortening workout recovery time.
