Yep if it helps you that is ALL that matters, ML. All anyone can do

with any supplement is to try it for themselves & see if it helps or

not, that is the most important study of all & the only one that counts/

I still have a very hard time figuring out if something really helps me or not

but I

keep on trying. But I have not given up on L-Arginine or Argentine which I call

it,

LOL!!!!!!!!! Now if my neck would just stop hurting. BTW, the doctor did not

think I had

to worry about PAD at this time. He also said I could test less if I wished and

of

course I told him I do much worse when I don't test. I got 5.8 A1C. I am waiting

for a

note from him about my cholesterol as I did not take that test the same day.

Hope you are having a good day.

I read that 15 grams has been tested without problems. But I'm not suggesting

that. Five grams seems more popular. According to my data, it reaches peak

effectiveness one or two hours after taking orally. You might want to consider

that when you're looking for dose timing. Five grams/day of arginine has also

been used for erectile dysfunction.

(Type 2 since 1990. Good control, primarily by diet, but with

Ultralente to combat increased IR caused by prednisone.)

Well, that last isn't a problem since I don't have those parts, but thank

you for mentioning the doses that have been tried for other things. I'll

check the one or two hour effectiveness, too. I wonder when it maxes.
