Detailed explanation-1: -Arginine, a semi-essential amino acid, is involved in numerous areas of human biochemistry, including ammonia detoxification, hormone secretion, and immune modulation.
Detailed explanation-2: -Some non-essential amino acids (e.g. Arginine, Cysteine, and Tyrosine) are called semi-essential or conditionally essential amino acids because they tend to run low during infancy or in health conditions such as being sick, injured or after surgery.
Detailed explanation-3: -Arginine and histidine are semi-indispensable, because they are slow to be formed in humans.
Detailed explanation-4: -The semi essential amino acids in humans are arginine and histidine. Histidine: It plays an important role in action of different enzymes.
Detailed explanation-5: -Another amino acid, histidine, is considered semi-essential because the body does not always require dietary sources of it. The nonessential amino acids are arginine, alanine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cysteine, glutamine, glutamic acid, glycine, proline, serine, and tyrosine .
