N methyl D-aspartic acid
N methyl D-aspartic acid (NMDA), is an amino acid derivative acting as a specific agonist at the NMDA receptor, and therefore mimics the action of the neurotransmitter glutamate on that receptor. In contrast to glutamate, NMDA binds to and regulates the NMDA receptor only, with no effect on other glutamate receptors.
N Methyl D-Aspartic acid is a little known receptor found in neurons and hormone regulating organs of the body. It has been deemed responsible for the incredible increase of hormonal output experienced during puberty, which results in rapid muscular and sexual development. This hormonal state is most desirable for building muscle mass and even useful in enhancing every aspect of sexual performance. This newly found receptor, when powerfully activated by amino acid based ingredient called NMDA, elicits profound elevations of circulating anabolic hormones.
There are studies showing it increases LH and test levels. NMDA receptor activation also plays a role in developing many neuro-degerative disorder like Parkinsons.
