Description
Bios 75
Food supplement based on arginine, citrulline, taurine, vitamins C and E, folic acid, bacopa and rhodiola which helps to counteract the oxidative damage produced by free radicals and is indicated to promote better attention, memory and concentration, as well as to promote relaxation and a normal mood tone in case of physical and mental tiredness.(6)L-Arginine
Arginine is an essential amino acid for the growth of the child, stimulates the pituitary gland to secrete GH (Grouth Hormone = growth hormone) and prolactin, stimulates the pancreas to secrete insulin and glucagon. This amino acid is particularly abundant in cells undergoing reproduction and reaches 50% in the nucleus of spermatozoa (1-2). After oral administration it is rapidly absorbed reaching the plasma peak after 2 hours. It is metabolized by the liver by hydrolytic cleavage. Arginine is used as an adjuvant in dysspermia and hyperammonemia refractory to other conventional treatments. It has recently been shown that arginine is the fuel of the family of enzymes called NOS (Nitric Oxide Synthetase) capable of converting it into citrulline, releasing nitric oxide (NO). This substance plays an important role in many biological processes: (3) 1) Cardiovascular system: it acts as a vasodilator, promoting the relaxation of blood vessels, particularly at the level of arterioles, allowing blood flow to flow easily, also useful in cases of atherosclerotic disorders;
2) Immune system: Cytokine-activated macrophages produce high amounts of NO to suppress harmful cells, such as bacteria and cancer cells;
3) Nervous system: it behaves as a neurotransmitter at both central and peripheral levels and is implicated in the apoptosis processes in neurons;
4) Inflammatory process: enhances cyclooxygenase (COX) promoting the production of pro-inflammatory eicosanoids. L-citrulline (1-3) It is a tonic used in cases of asthenia. Its biological activity is expressed through an increase in the production of nitric oxide, stimulating the secretion of GH, delaying muscle fatigue, promoting the resynthesis of ATP and phosphocreatine.
Taurine (1-2)
Taurine has a detoxifying and antioxidant action, particularly on the liver, and also has a tonic-stimulating action on the body.
Vitamin C (1)
Antioxidant-stimulating vitamin. An adequate intake of vitamin C improves the absorption of iron, thus promoting the transport of oxygen by the blood and consequently has a tonic effect on the body.
Vitamin E (1)
Vitamin E protects the body's tissues from harmful reactions (peroxidations) that originate both during normal metabolic processes and following external toxic agents. In particular, its protective action is manifested on the cardiovascular system, the nervous system and the muscular system. It also protects vitamin A from oxidation.
Folic acid (1)
Folic acid, a B vitamin, ensures the correct maturation of red blood cells, plays an important role in regulating the genetic code of cells. (Taken by pregnant women, it contributes to the correct development of the nervous system and the reproductive system of the unborn child).
Bacopa monnieri dry extract (20% bacosides) (4)
Bacopa works by enhancing protein synthesis in the hippocampus, a brain region instrumental in long-term memory. According to Nobel Prize winner Dr Robert Furchgott, Bacopa is able to increase the production of nitric oxide (NO), a chemical messenger of essential importance. In conditions of stress associated with sleep deprivation, the administration of bacopa leads to a reduction in glutamate concentrations and an increase in GABA in different parts of the CNS. Anxiety levels are reduced by about 20% and mental fatigue is decreased. Serotonin levels (an inhibitory neurotransmitter) are increased. The ability of bacopa to influence psychoneurological functions associated with intellectual behavior opens up interesting new perspectives.
Rhodiola dry extract (1% salidroside) (5)
The adaptogenic action, generally promoting learning and memory abilities, well known from Siberian folk medicine, has been scientifically proven with the use of total hydroalcoholic extracts in several studies, published in accredited journals since the 1970s. These properties are attributable to the presence of phenylpropanoid glycosides, in particular salidroside and rosavidin, whose chemical structure is similar to that of syringin (eleutheroside B), one of the active ingredients of eleutherococcus. Salidroside has also shown an anabolic effect by increasing working capacity and organic performance. Rhodiola produces an increase in the plasma concentration of beta-endorphins which prevents hormonal variations indicative of stress, shows a cardioprotective effect and improves the body's resistance to toxins.
