To be used under medical supervision.
Lactose-free, gluten-free, suitable for vegetarians.
Orange-flavoured.
Formulated with a unique blend of ingredients:
HMB (Beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate): a naturally occurring metabolite of leucine (essential amino acid)
Arginine: an amino acid that promotes nutrient rich blood flow and is a building block for proteins, which can contribute to wound healing
Glutamine: a conditionally essential amino acid. Conditionally-essential amino acids, arginine and glutamine, are from protein. Protein supports building and maintenance of body tissues.
Arginaid® arginine-based powder supports wound management from inside out and is a fat-free nutritional supplement.
Supports the unique nutritional needs of people with chronic wounds (e.g pressure injury).
Taking 2 serves of Arginaid® daily, until wound was completely healed, showed a 2-fold faster healing of pressure ulcers in well-nourished patients
