L-arginine HCl powder

What is L-arginine HCl powder?

L-arginine HCl powder from RawSeries is a food supplement made with L-arginine hydrochloride obtained through plant fermentation.

Our L-arginine comes from plant sources that undergo a natural fermentation process to obtain the amino acid. It doesn't come from chemical synthesis or the extraction of animal raw materials, such as mammal hair or bird feathers.

That's why L-arginine HCl powder is a food supplement that's 100 % suitable for vegetarians and vegans.

Why buy L-arginine HCl from HSN?

Fermenting plant-based raw materials produces pure amino acids without animal extraction. This process offers an option that's compatible with vegetarian and vegan diets.

At HSN, we use this technique to obtain the L-arginine in our L-arginine HCl powder, ensuring it comes from plants and is suitable for anyone looking for an amino acid without animal-derived raw materials.

100 % RAW, Good solubility

The product is made from pure L-arginine HCl, with nothing added.

No added flavour doesn't mean no taste: with no flavourings or sweeteners, it retains the bitter, slightly salty taste characteristic of L-arginine HCl.

The product has been processed into a micronised raw powder with a very small particle size.

This helps it disperse in liquid and makes it easier to mix, keeping the particles suspended for longer and reducing the percentage of sedimentation.

What can you combine L-arginine HCl powder with?

You can combine it with citrulline.

If you want to mask its bitter taste, you can mix it with orange or pineapple juice, a lemon-flavoured drink or a fruity powdered drink mix. Citrus and sweet flavours can help soften the bitterness and make it more pleasant to take.

Adjust the amount of liquid to suit your taste: a more diluted mix can reduce the intensity of the flavour. You can also add it to a flavoured pre-workout drink, following the directions for use of each product.

What does L-arginine HCl powder taste like?

Arginine powder has a bitter, slightly salty taste. That's the natural taste of the raw material, as our formula contains no flavourings, sweeteners or other additives to mask it.

To make it more pleasant to take, combine it with one of the drinks suggested above. These mixes can tone down the bitterness, though they may not remove it completely. You can also use our flavouring powder.

Would you rather avoid the bitter taste and skip the mixing? Discover our EssentialSeries L-arginine 1000 mg capsules, a handy way to add this amino acid to your routine without taking it in a drink.
