L-arginine Patent Licensed To Synergy Worldwide

L-arginine Patent Licensed To Synergy Worldwide.



The amino acid L-arginine is considered the most potent Nutraceutical ever discovered, due to its powerful healing properties, and is referred to by scientists as the Miracle Molecule. The remarkable properties of L-arginine were validated by the 1998 Noble Prize in medicine, and since then have created a frenzy of interest in the Pharmaceutical and nutraceutical fields.

The scientific and medical community took notice when it was recently announced that the worldÂ’s leading expert on L-arginine had licensed her patented product to Synergy Worldwide, a Nutraceutical company in Provo, Utah. The L-arginine patent is the brainchild of World renowned researcher, Dr. Ann de Wees Allen, chief of Biomedical Research at the Glycemic Research Institute in Washington, D. C.



After 20 years research of L-arginine, it was assumed that Dr. Allen would license her patent to a large Pharmaceutical company. Corporate and Pharmaceutical negotiation for the right to the patent came to an abrupt halt when the discussion was announced that Synergy Worldwide had been granted the rights to the L-arginine patent.



Dr. AllenÂ’s L-arginine patent is considered the breakthrough product of the Century, and is currently valued at 100 Million dollars. The value of the patent was based on the unique properties of Dr. AllenÂ’s formula.



Since the Noble Prize was awarded for Nitric Oxide/L-arginine, the Pharmaceutical and Nutraceutical industries have rushed to bring L-arginine products to market. According to Scientists, the problem is that no-one appears to know enough about L-arginine to produce a product that is both efficacious and safe for human use. Through L-arginine has been shown, in over 10,000 clinical studies, to provide health benefits, the major benefit of L-arginine appears to be the reactivation of anti-aging mechanisms, that action require is complex, and takes precise formulating.



Dr. Allen’s states, “You cannot simply place L-arginine in a capsule or spray, or in a formula that does not contain the proper co-factor, and expect it to work. That won’t happen. L-arginine is both dose-dependant and timing-dependant, and it is very selective about crossing the blood-brain-barrier, where it releases anti-aging-hormones.”



Researchers agree that L-arginine formulas containing Lysine, sucrose, maltodextrins, and any other competing agent, does not work. L-arginine also reactivates the herpes simplex virus (HSV), and produces nitric oxide (NO), which can cause severe free radical damage. The methodology utilized in producing an L-arginine product that does not carry these side effects was developed by Dr. Allen.



When reporters asked Dr. Allen and Synergy Worldwide to reveal these processes to the medical and scientific community, they declined, stating that the process is “proprietary, and not described in the patent.” One of the processing secrets that has been disclosed by chemists working on the project, is the extraction of organic Kiwi glycosides and low glycemic carbohydrates that are not bound to L-arginine molecules.



Synergy Worldwide announced that the name of the L-arginine product will be PROARGI-9, to be launched mid-February 2004.
