What is L-arginine?
Amino acids are the units that proteins are built from. L-arginine is classed as non-essential because the body can produce it, and it is also supplied by protein foods such as meat, fish, dairy, nuts and seeds. The body uses arginine to make nitric oxide, among other compounds. In supplements it is usually bound to hydrochloride, a stable form that is easy to press into tablets.

L arginine is good for your heart
I have attended several lectures as to the benefit of L-arginine and the heart. It is a naturally occurring amino acid that gradually decreases in the body as we age. In 1998 John P Cooke won a Nobel Prize for his work in this area.This is public information. My husband is not so diligent at taking his supplements until he missed about 6 days over a 10 day period and experienced his heart rate go up to about 170 beats per minute. Long story short he doesn't miss taking his L-arginine along with his coQ10 anymore. We also increased the amount that he is taking and he feels great. And no he is not on any medications.My husband and I will continue to take L arginine as long as we are alive. This is only the opinion of a retired ER Nurse. Vitasave had better not increase the cost of this amino acid or I will not ever write another review for them.
