L-ARGININE is a natural amino acid found in meat, poultry, dairy foods, peanut butter, chocolate and nuts. It is also found in nutritional supplements.
L-ARGININE is the safest amino acid in the entire amino food chain, but certain persons should avoid using any L-arginine supplements without express authorization from their physician.
DO NOT use L-arginine if you have been diagnosed with cancer. Though L-arginine has been shown to help successfully combat many cancers, very high doses (30-50 grams of L-arginine) per day stimulates growth hormone, which primarily stimulates growth of muscle mass. Certain tumor cells may thrive on human growth hormone, which may stimulate growth of breast cancer cells. As far back as 1981, the National Cancer Institute reported that arginine-derived nitric oxide inhibits [blocks] breast-cancer-cell replication in a test tube, and L-arginine has never been shown to cause breast or any other type of cancer. The research shows the pros and cons of using L-arginine at high doses. Doses of 6 grams a day or less of L-arginine is not considered a potential problem for cancer patients, but, as a precautionary decision, use of L-arginine in the presence of any cancer is contraindicated without a doctor’s specific permission.
DO NOT use plain L-arginine without the appropriate co-factors, as it may stimulate replication of the herpes-simplex viruses and other negative side effects. ProArgi-9 contains the essential co-factors designed to avoid the negative herpes-side-effects associated with taking L-arginine.
DO NOT attempt to self-treat any medical condition. As with any medical condition, consult your physician before taking any supplements.
DO NOT take L-arginine with L-lysine. These two aminos compete with each other to cross the blood-brain barrier.
DO NOT take L-arginine with Viagra.
Essential Cofactors: L-arginine is NOT for use by pregnant or lactating women, males with prostate disorders or high PSA values.
L-arginine should not be used by diabetics or borderline diabetics unless under close medical supervision because growth hormones can sometimes block the effects of insulin. L-arginine may be beneficial to some persons with Type II diabetes or sub-diabetic insulin resistance: Physicians and clinicians may request the “L-Arginine/Diabetes Report”.
Persons under the age of 23 and/or persons who have not completed their long-bone growth phase should NOT take L-arginine.
At this time (January-2004) there are no well-known drug interactions with L-arginine.
