Common Questions and Answers about L arginine for weight training

l-arginine

Avatar n tn Very interesed in your Integrated medical approach to your angina problems using L-arginine. After 2 CABGs and several stents I still have vague angina mostly aided by nitro. Would L-arginine do abetter job and must it be Rxed and supervised? Sometimes I do feel it is Variant type angina or small vessel disease as hinted to by my cardio. Also after so many invasive procedures I also believe that I do have some form of RSD since my symptoms come and go almost at random.
1703392 tn?1307450500 L-arginine (often used for increased blood flow for weight lifting/muscle building) has a few potential concerns for those who have experienced a heart attack, so as with any personal experimentation, starting with low dosage is probably prudent. Since both are amino acids, and are present in several natural sources for consumption, I consider both to be very safe.
Avatar f tn L-arginine can cause some serious side effects and has been associated with death in some heart attack patients. It should only be used under supervision of a qualified doctor. http://www.mayoclinic.
Avatar f tn I do have small vessel spasms in the small coronary arteries without the disease. I take nitro when needed and L-Arginine for the spasms. Other than that no major illness. Thank you for your time.
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 f tn Thank you so much for your advice. May God bless you. Is L-arginine really can improve my situation? Should I use What about a side-effect? Should I inject it intramuscularly?
Avatar f tn Supplement your diet with high quanties of L-Lysine and reduce your intake of L-Arginine. Foods high in L-Arginine include nuts, grains, beer, chocolate, peas, coffee, and so forth. Reduce sugar intake and avoid caffeine like the plague. Also, try to remain out of the sun. All of these "triggers" can make herpes worse. There are other supplements you can consider like Red Marine Algea and Olive Leaf Extract.
Avatar m tn Do some weight training and cardiovascular training five or more days a week for 30 minutes. Testosterone is the male sex hormone. If it is low, so is your sex drive. A way to boost it is by eating foods that are high in zinc. Some of these include oysters, bananas, artichokes, blackberries and avocados. Stress and anxiety can cause a low sex drive and also lead to impotence.
Avatar f tn t really make too much of a difference for the most part. The lysine/arginine herpes diet never held up outside of the test tube. The only study that showed any significant results at all was with the 1gm 3x/day dose. That said it still can't even begin to hold a candle to the results you get with oral antivirals. You can treat your herpes with acyclovir suppressively for about $12/month if you shop around for prices and are in the US.
Avatar m tn Is there any correlation between biliary dyskinesia and L-arginine? I heard L-arginine affects the sphincter of the oddi, which is the cause to my biliary dyskinesia if I'm not mistaken. Does the L-arginine help or hurt? Or is it neutral?
Avatar n tn L-Arginine and L-Citrulline are quite effective in restoring sexual ability in a certain universe of patients, specifically those with diabetic neuropathy. You need to take at least 2-3 grams of L-Arginine for an effect. Purchase it in quantitities at health food stores.
Avatar m tn If so, is the contraindication just for that day? In other words, would I be safe if I did not take L-Arginine on the day I took Viagra? Or, do I have to stop taking L-Arginine completely if I am going to occasionally take Viagra (i.e. take Viagra once a week)? Thank you for your response.
Avatar n tn L-Arginine is the best and it also boosts the level of Creatine which helps with weight loss, exercise, and erections and blood pressure. Most of the effective trials though were done with 3 to 7 grams daily. The higher treatment (7 on up) was associated with physical problems mainly liver. But I think some experiments were done with a daily 3 G dose and 5gram dose on days you expected sexual activity &/or 1 hour before activity alongside a yohimbe.
Avatar n tn Creatine is a naturally occurring substance that plays an important role in the production of energy in the body. The body converts it to phosphocreatine, a form of stored energy used by muscles. The evidence for creatine is not definitive, it has the most evidence behind it among all the sports supplements. Numerous small double-blind studies suggest that it can increase athletic performance in sports that involve intense but short bursts of activity.
Avatar n tn Yes. L-Arg\inine is used therapeutically up to 15 grams a day. It is a systemic vasodilator and opens up microcirculation, which increases body capacitance and reduces blood pressure. Excellent for diabetic neuropathy as well. Many people take it four or five times per day in small doses. Purchase the L-Arginine in quantity (at health food stores), rather than in capsules and you will save a lot of money.
Avatar m tn I've been using Pycnogenol+L-Arginine combo for nearly a month and felt no great difference at all, only a few random semi-boners during the day. My dosing is 2x60 mg pycnegenol and 2x2 g l-arginine daily. I will continue using this combo use for at least 3 months more in order to see its full effects.
Avatar m tn I also currently use vitamin E liquid topically and have been trying to live as healthy a life style as possible (quit smoking, drinking and eating healthier). I like taking the L-arginine for the muscle building properties but I am willing to stop taking it if it makes my HPV worse. I also like to eat alot of different foods like chocolate, red meat and yogurt to name a few, which again I have read are very high in L-Arginine.

Avatar n tn Although some studies suggest that L-arginine may benefit certain health conditions, other research shows that L-arginine may have harmful effects on some individuals. A large body of data suggests that NO actually promotes tumor progression. L Citrulline, like arginine, it can convert into nitric oxide NO. Be careful!!
Avatar m tn citrulline is said to be better to rise blood levels of arginine but for now i m trying l arginine only and waiting to see if it has any effect on hbsag or alt levels
Avatar m tn I know for myself Magnesium, and vitamin c work great, but I try to get the vitamin c from fruits. The other thing that helps me is fish oil. When I added fish oil to my diet I noticed I sometimes go days with no palpitations now a days.
Avatar m tn Some studies suggest that getting three grams a day could make for better erections. Many foods high in good-for-you omega 3s are also high in L-Arginine, such as free-range game, seafood, walnuts, and sesame seeds. Plus, omega 3s help your body better absorb L-Arginine, according to a study in Nutrition & Metabolism.
Avatar m tn & one thing that i understand from the report is: the sequential therapy facilitate the T-cell function to word the Hbsag clearance fast. Does this mean adding L-Arginine to our Nuc's helps more to facilitate to the Hbsag clearance? Thanks!
Avatar f tn Well, I've searched a lot and all I've found is that L-arginine can make herpes (HSV) replicate and get worse. But I haven't found a study saying that it could be the same with HPV. I bought a protein supplement of egg protein and I've read that it has lysine and lutein which seems to have a good effect in the clearance of HPV, but it also has L-Arginine and there are mixed opinions about it... Anyone has tried it with success? Btw...
