Common Questions and Answers about L arginine in heart failure

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 n tn 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. Of course you should have a home meter and check your blood pressure before and after starting with this substance, just to know the effect.
Avatar m tn L-arginine is contr-indicated for anyone who has had a heart attack.
Avatar m tn It was only after I had bought these that I read on multiple websites that excess (i.e. more than usual) L-Arginine in your diet can mean more frequent herpes outbreaks and of course these supplements both contain L-Arginine. I don't want to waste the supplements but I don't want to risk having an outbreak because of them. Does anyone know if L-arginine can lead to more frequent outbreaks (apparently it promotes the replication of the virus and thus leads to an outbreak)?
Avatar m tn I take a multi vitamin as well as L-Arginine, Zinc and Saw Palmetto. I was wondering if anyone has any concrete evidence that the L-Arginine especially has any negative effects on my condition (causes/exacerbates) breakouts etc. I also currently use vitamin E liquid topically and have been trying to live as healthy a life style as possible. 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.
1703392 tn?1307450500 All PVC/PAC sufferers should read this and consider trying taurine with l-arginine to help curtail symptoms. It seems to have worked incredibly well in the test cases mentioned, and has little or no side effects. Thanks for finding this!

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 !
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 Are there are any potential contra indications in that Viagra should not be taken by a person who takes L-Arginine? 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 f tn So if you have a problem with either high blood pressure or high cholesterol i really recommend that you try L-arginine plus at least once and see what it can do for you so check it out--bit.
Avatar f tn I started with 1g Taurine / 500mg L-Arginine in the morning and the same at night (2g and 1g total per day). The NIH article talked about 8-10g per day but I preferred to start small and see what happened so I stopped at those levels. If you search for Taurine and PVCs or heart rhythm you will see others that have had a good experience too. I'm hopeful for you because you sound like me - nothing else made any difference including caffeine, alcohol, sugar, magnesium, beta blocker, etc.
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 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
777517 tn?1235660859 Recently diagnose via TEE with a dilated aortic root (aneurysm) w/mild leakage. I know there is no cure -- it won't go away... and I want to avoid open heart surgery as much as possible. In addition to current standard treatment plan of beta blocker & statin meds, what else can I do, take, to stop or at least slow down the progression of this condition? How long is it possible to live without open heart intervention?
1806721 tn?1554333407 My PCP sent me to DXA to eval how bad things are. Already added probiotics. Will try L-arginine, but I also have GERD, hope I can tolerate it. Cannot take L-glutamine as dr suspecting liver/gallbladder disease right now. It's horrifying to see how much muscle/bone mass I lost and how much my health deteriorated over just a couple years. I was running marathon two years ago, and bedridden in agonizing pain all over my body today.
Avatar f tn I truly believe it is the deficiencies causing a lot of our problems. That being said, I remember trying taurine and L-arginine years ago with no success. Possibly I didn't take it enough. I think I will check out which foods have this. Maybe I'm eating a bunch right now cuz my heart has been behaving again.
Avatar m tn I, too, read that article and decided to give it a shot. I started with 2g Taurine (split morning and night) and 1g L-Arginine at night. A few days after I started, my PVCs seemed to go away and have been gone for over a month now (thousands a day before that). Two things: 1. I think every person is different so it may or may not help you. I've seen others report that other things have helped them like magnesium etc. Those other things I tried didn't help. 2.
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 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... It's been 2 months since my external warts are gone, but I still have a small one inside... Which means I still have the virus. I eat healthy and take vitamins. Any advice? Should I take the egg protein with L-arginine?
Avatar m tn //aminoacidstudies.org/l-arginine Good luck!
Avatar m tn Has anyone tried l-arginine to improve the erection. If you could give me your opinion about l-arginine I will appreciate it.
