L-arginine: is it that great?

[TheSperminator Member of the Month Oct 12 Find all posts View Profile Close TheSperminator]

Is it?
Are it's effects only temporary or?
Where do you buy it? (my local drug store sells it as "libido plus" .. I'm 20. I'm not gonna walk up to the cashier with a libido plus bottle in my hand )
Any other PE supplements?

I don't like it, I got absolutely no benefit but it did give me breakouts of pimples which I hadn't had in years. Any supplement store (GNC, Super Supplements etc.) will have it

L-arginine helps to increase Nitric Oxide in your body which in turn dilates your blood vessels. I hae been taking it for a little over a month now and i love it. It helps me to push harder for longer when i exercise, it pumps my musclesto a new level that is extremely noticable during and after a workout where i lift weight (i normally do intense cardio but since i have started on the arginine i have incorporated more pushups and dumb bell work). And last but not least it has noticably improved my EQ. Now if i overdo my PE i still have a lesser EQ but i THINK it is improving recovery time.

Go to GNC and get L-arginine powder. It tastes great (citrus) and you can get a month supply for like $30. Also the people who work there seem very knowledgable and will answer any questions you have.

Also do some research on citruline malate which is supposed to provide more arginine than arginine due to the way it is processed in your body. I have recently ordered some different things to start stacking with my arginine which are supposed to optimize the levels of NO throughout the day all day. You can see it in the Q and A on supplements thread started by Newtope. I will be reporting back there with how it works. Good Luck!

4 x 1g or 4 x 4g??

16g would be insane

I presume it is 4g!

I took it for about 2-3 months and didn't really notice a difference, but then again I only took 1g per day which isn't a lot...it was quite expensive (for a student) so I wanted to make it last

I think I got (500) 500 mg capsules at a local vitamin store for $15. At 4 g a day, that'll last 2 months. That's cheaper than Netflix.

pterodactyl you say you take 4g before sex on an empty tummy? what benefits have you seen from it?

I personally haven't noticed much from it. I take 1g in the morning, and the muscle milk I drink before bed has I think close to 2g of it in there.

[pterodactyl Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close pterodactyl]

All the doses i have read about for ED are 5-6 grams. Athletic performance up to 18 grams and some heart patients up to 28 grams. For medical conditions though they stop after so long (a month or so).

Bautista when i take it before sex my erection is fuller. Not bigger but fuller if that makes any sense =) I tend to last a bit longer too and my stamina (cardio) is better.

I tried it for three months and could not tell a difference.

[NCGUY1972 Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close NCGUY1972]
