About this title

From the Publisher

"This book will save hundreds of thousands of lives."*
Readers can dramatically improve their overall health with arginine, an amino acid that has recently rocketed to the forefront of medical science as one of the newest weapons against heart disease and many other ailments. Arginine is a primary source of nitric oxide, a molecule that has been shown to open clogged arteries by reducing or reversing arterial plaque formation, lower blood pressure and cholesterol, reduce the risks of heart disease and stroke, improve the immune system, and more. In this easy-to-understand guide, medical experts reveal how this readily available supplement works, what the optimum dosage is, what results to expect, and answer other key questions about this life-saving substance.

From the Author

Arginine Changed My Life! It Can Change Yours Too
In 1995, I was prescribed medication to lower my dangerously elevated blood pressure and pulse rate. But, about that time, I began to read in prestigious medical journals about the curious finding that the body makes the gas nitric oxide, mostly from the amino acid L-arginine, and that arginine-derived nitric oxide controls cardiovascular and heart function, and lowers bad (LDL) cholesterol.

I though to myself, why not try oral arginine supplementation, as many clinical studies suggested? Within a few weeks of taking a daily oral supplement of 2000 milligrams of L-arginine (four capsules per day), my blood pressure returned to normal and so did my pulse rate. I never finished the prescription. And, to top it off, I discovered an equally amazing increase in erectile strength.

The 1998 Nobel Prize in Medicine was awarded to three American scientists who detailed the role of nitric oxide in cardiovascular function, and Dr. Woodson C. Merrell and I explain their findings and those of hundreds of recent clinical studies attesting to the benefit of oral arginine supplementation in cardiovascular, heart and erectile function. But, I recommend the prudent step of reading the whole book before undertaking supplementation.
