L-aspartic Acid

Drug Details

L-aspartic acid is a non-essential amino acid that plays a vital role in various bodily functions. It is involved in protein synthesis, energy production through the citric acid cycle, and the urea cycle, which helps eliminate excess nitrogen. Additionally, L-aspartic acid contributes to the synthesis of other amino acids and nucleotides, supporting cell growth and repair. It also acts as an excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain, facilitating nerve signal transmission. While the body can produce L-aspartic acid, it is also found in protein-rich foods such as meat, poultry, eggs, dairy products, and certain vegetables like asparagus and avocados.
