L-Arginine

[Guest guest]

Mike,

A naturally occurring amino acid called L-Arginine boosts nitric oxide, the main

ingredient in Viagra, Levitra, and Cialis for erectile dysfunction.

Amino Acids are required for the manufacture of proteins, hormone cells, and

cellular metabolism.

Arginine is a factor in the manufacture of the protein called nerve-

growth factor (NGF), NGF is crucial to the growth and maturation of axons and

the synthesis and release of neurotransmitters: the bearers of the chemical

messages.(this is a large and highly technical article, It came from an

encyclopedia, If you want it E-mail me and I will send it to you in Acrobat.pdf)

Arginine is present in Vitamin B12, it is essential for the fertility of men,

and it is highly effective treatment of cirrhosis (liver disease).

It is one of the essential Amino Acids required in your diet. It can

be found in protein rich foods.

Hmmmm.....well, LDN itself is an immune system strengthener, so what the heck! We all seem to be doing just fine!

HOWEVER - L-Arginine is a immune system strenghtener - so, by conventional wisdom, it should be bad for us MSers. Works for me - but you would have to do your own

Cinders, I'm a little confused by your posting. Doesn't Dr. Bihari

believe that LDN enhances the immune system? So I would think then that

L-Arginine would be compatible...

- I agree with you - the two should be completely compatible.

HOWEVER - I feel a responsibility to tell people that the L-Arginine

is an immune system enhancer - and let them decide for themselves if

they want to try it for bladder issues. My compounding pharmicist

things they are good together - but I always like to err on the side

of caution when I recommend stuff to others. Since I have no doctor

helping me here. I am taking LDN /supplements based on my own

research and my compounding pharmacist' knowledge - no doctor's

advice.

You need to ask this question over don't understand what your saying.

If you want to know if taking L-A will make your hormones go higher no. It

will make your load bigger and up your libido some.

Will L-Arginine or L-lysine have any effects to one on HRT? Could

either one possibly aid in blow flow or stimulation of the testes and

/or penis? Thxs.

I think I read a former post regarding this and body builders? I found

this Article extremely interesting.

http://phoenix-cfs.org/Cardio%20IVa%20Superoxide.htm

an exerpt from the ending:

Hemoglobin - is the biggest reservoir of both oxygen and NO in the body

and may play an important role in vascular dilation through NO release.

Because heme, the oxygen carrying molecule in hemoglobin, releases

superoxide when it is desaturated (i.e. not filled with oxygen),

hemoglobin can be an important contributor to ROS production in

conditions like heart failure with low oxygen levels.

PS. My hemoglobin was messed up also on my lab work! WoW am I a Mess!
