MORE On L-Arginine and L-Citrulline

I have been reading a lot more on the benefits of L-Arginine and L-Citrulline and wanted to pass this info along to readers. One area I haven't touched on much is the (Erectile Dysfunction) problem with diabetes. One study I read indicated that in the 65 and older age group, ED runs as high as 95% in type 2 diabetics.

There have been studies done and well documented that the combination of L-Arginine and L-Citrulline in adequate amounts have worked miracles to restore sexual function in diabetic men. I have read that many of the products on the market especially prescription drugs such as Viagara and Ciallis have severe side effects, including but not limited to the following:

SIDE EFFECTS OF VIAGARA: I counted 120 listed side effects! IF you suffer from ED, I suggest you take a hard look at one of the formulas containing L-Arginine and L-Citruline INSTEAD of prescription drugs. Over time, these two amino acids taken together have been proven to REVERSE erectile dysfunction in men. Remember that L-Arginine and L-Citrulline not only play a role in reversing ED. They also have a long list of health benefits for your heart and circulatory system in general.

God Bless,

EXCERPT:

What does L-Citrulline and L-Arginine do?

Together they help:

• Support cardiovascular health by boosting nitric oxide production and helping blood flow more easily throughout the body
• Support healthy blood pressure and boost the immune system
• Detoxify the liver and eliminate ammonia from the body
• Improve sexual stamina and enhance recovery from an intense workout

Who might benefit from taking a supplement containing
both citrulline and arginine?

• Anyone who wants to support healthy blood pressure Individuals who want to avoid angina (chest pain)
• Individuals who want to avoid leg pain due to poor blood circulation
• Anyone who wants protection from heart attack and stroke
• Men suffering from erectile dysfunction
• Athletes who want a faster recovery

How are citrulline and arginine related?

As soon as citrulline enters the kidney, vascular endothelium and other tissues, it is converted into arginine. Plasma and tissue levels of arginine increase, which is necessary for the production of nitric oxide and relaxation of blood vessels. An additional benefit of supplemental citrulline is that it helps eliminate ammonia, a highly toxic substance, from the liver.

Will citrulline and arginine help my sex life?

The answer is yes. Arginine has been well studied for its ability to enhance sexual satisfaction. Both men and women report longer and more intense orgasms when their intake of arginine increases. Additionally, arginine is often used by men to achieve long lasting and harder erections. Since citrulline is a precursor for arginine and arginine is a precursor to nitric oxide, you can combine the two for enhanced sexual pleasure and vascular health.
