370801 tn?1264405018 In this blend you will find the Nitric Oxide portion of this supplement, L-Arginine AKG. Arginine is a semi-essential amino acid. It is a building block of protein that performs a myriad of physiological functions. It is a known precursor of the gas nitric oxide [N02]. Arginine is the most important component of any NO supplement. NO-Xplode also contains some Creatine, Caffeine and Nootropic Ingredients that help you focus on the task at hand.

Avatar n tn L-Arginine should lower your Blood Pressure due to slight increase in Nitric Oxide but normally it takes about 5000 mg daily. The problem is what will that do with the beta blocker? Get your doctor's advice on this.
Avatar m tn I think you diagnosed your own problem - Viagra, Cialis & Levitra all work by increasing blood flow to the penis, then you add the Nitric Oxide booster & L-Arginine, which ALSO increase blood flow, and you just overdid it. As they say, honesty's the best policy, just be upfront about it & tell your GF what happened, you're in pain, etc., and just say look, I need to take it easy for a week or 2 & I'm sure she'll understand.
Avatar f tn I have a question from the opposite angle.. I had been told l- arginine would be of help releasing nitric oxide in the blood to help with male erection/orgasm ..however, that arginine shouldn't be taken by those with hsv1/2 because it can provoke an outbreak. Can you debunk this ? I would love to take arginine if it can help at all !
1359524 tn?1282691910 Anyway, everything you said about arginine and nitric oxide was correct. It is (supposedly) the dysregulation of nitric oxide and it's toxic byproducts that can lead to orthostatic intolerance, or at least play a role in it's development.
Avatar m tn They have increased the Ranexa 500 mg to 2 x a day and I am still having angina attacks mainly left shoulder pain. I have read several articles about L-arginine being used to increase nitric oxide and that seemed to help control spasms. I am currently on Norvasc 5mg 1xdaily, Lisinopril 5mg 1x daily, metoprolol 100 mg 2 x daily Ranexa 500 mg 2x daily, magnesium 500 mg 2 x daily, garlic 1000 mg daily, evening primrose oil 1000 mg daily, simvastatin. I also have sleep apnea and use a cpap machine.
Avatar m tn Don't waste your $$$$ and This supplement L-arginine increases nitric oxide (NO) which hampers the ability of T-cells in fighting cancer.
Avatar m tn I take pre-workout supplements (Muscle Pharm Assault) which contain L-Arginine and Beta Alinine (nitric oxide), which I read doesnt go well when taken at the same time as Viagra. In addition, I take Creatine and Whey Protein as well. I am not planning on taking them at the same time though. Could you advise if it is safe to take these on the days when I am not having Viagra. Also, how long do I need to wait before I can take them.
Avatar m tn Feeding coconut water resulted in increased plasma L-arginine content, urinary nitrite level, and nitric oxide synthase activity. These results indicate that both tender and mature coconut water has beneficial effects on serum and tissue lipid parameters in rats fed cholesterol-containing diet.
Avatar m tn Walnuts, Pistachios, peanuts all contain the amino acid L-arginine, which is one of the building blocks of nitric oxide—a naturally occurring gas that helps guys maintain their erections. Plus, nuts also help reduce cholesterol levels. The less cholesterol you have in your system, the easier it is for blood to circulate throughout your body and down to your penis, which can help you maintain a firmer erection longer.
Avatar f tn the green, white and red parts (blended/mashed), as it will help increase nitric oxide (nitric oxide improves blood circulation). It contains citulline and lycopene, key nutrients through which these great medicinal properties manifest.
545944 tn?1227827002 t drink, taking 5 grms fish oil and 6 grms L-arginine daily+ lipitor, propranolol, hctz so lipids and BP under control (except stress tests >190/90). What can I do to make this next appontment count? Is with Head of Cardio for Regional Hospital, don't want to waste anyones time but feel like doing everythng I can and isn't enough! Think need cardiac cath with and without ergonovine... doesn't sound like any fun, any other way to diagnose spasms?
Avatar m tn Homocysteine is a lethal inhibitor of arginase (so that particular instance of the enzyme is never going to work again but you have other instances which is why as homocysteine goes up nitric oxide production goes down) and it makes endothelium less responsive to nitric oxide and the problem gets worse as the level of homocysteine stays high for longer periods of time.
Avatar m tn Are you aware of any deleterious side effects of the muscle-building supplement, nitric oxide?
712042 tn?1254569209 Emory still feels that my body has reduced or given up making nitric oxide which allows the vessels to expand when a cardica demand is made. Not a problem with the endothelial of cardiac vessels and their receptors for nitric oxide because I really do well with the nitro. The spasms are either from the small microvessels or, as they reproduced during provocative tesing in May 2008, a spasm up into the LAD. I remain on Cardizem.
Avatar m tn L-arginine (L-Arg), the precursor of nitric oxide (NO), plays multiple important roles in nutrient metabolism and immune regulation. L-Arg supplement serves as a potential adjunctive therapy for severe malaria, because it improves NO bioavailability and reverses endothelial dysfunction in severe malaria patients. In this study, we investigated the effect of dietary L-Arg supplement on host immune responses during subsequent malaria infection using the Plasmodium yoelii 17XL - BALB/c mouse model.
Avatar m tn Ya i tried first to look for pills but seems dr mercola only have spray on his site so not sure why.
Avatar m tn s angina is treated with medications, specifically nitroglycerin. An over the counter product is L-arginine which enhances nitric oxide (NO) synthesis so this is also helpful. Pariet is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) and works by slowing or preventing the production of acid in the stomach. This drug should only be used short term as stomach acid is vital for good health. High acid is rarely the cause of reflux/GERD so in most cases an acid blocker is the incorrect treatment.
Avatar n tn As for as I know this condition is because of very low level of nitric oxide in my body. I have tested my nitric oxide level which is very low or depleted. My erections are very weak and go away quickly and I hardly get morning erections. I was considering taking either Prelox or Neo daily 40 but cannot decide really. I want to know which one out of the two is better for mild to severe ED? Thanks.
Avatar f tn I used it in conjunction with my viagra and when i ran out of my viagra supply. It is L-Arginine. Another supplement is L-Carnitine. Don't take them together. L-Carnitine should be taken on a emply stomach. There are many different forms--and they each have a slightly different function. What i took of the L-Carnitine is GPLC by Jarrow pharmaceuticals. I know Australia has several good supplier of supplements. L-Arginine works differently than viagra.

560501 tn?1383612740 enzymelover points out some interesting points about B12 and lysine and the role of nitric oxide that I find very helpful. I have not had autonomic testing in a lab and I am new to my diagnoses so I am not sure of all the reasons with my dx. of pure autonomic failure that I come to have orthostatic hypotension. I would like to understand that better. Is nitric oxide increase something all with dysautonomia encounter or only some?
