has anyone stuck to the arginine diet? a question about arginine..

[Guest guest]

Hi

A while ago a few people were trying to reduce the amount of arginine in

their diet. I appreciate that the conclusion was made that sticking to an

arginine free diet is dangerous, but just curious to see if anyone stuck to

a reduced arginine diet and what the results are/were?

Also I have looked up a little information abot arginine and it'e effects on

NO within the body but does anyone know if we rely on arginine in the diet

in order to make NO or whether our bodys make it independantly?

Yes, a low arginine diet helps me and there are only a few things you

have to avoid: nuts, seeds, cola, chocolate, and gelatin are super

high in arginine. Grains are moderately high in arginine.

You should note that lysine balances arginine so you dont have to

worry about meats even though they have lots of arginine since they

also have high lysine. In other words, you only have to avoid high

arginine foods that have more arginine than lysine. Lucky for us,

this really shrinks the list. (see first paragraph)

So, I cut out nuts, seeds, cola, chocolate, and gelatin and try not

to overdue it with the grains and my rosacea has improved a lot. I

have it mostly in the cheeks and once in a while I would get the warm

flare in my nose. When I avoid the arginine foods, I DONT GET THE

NOSE FLARE and my cheeks do better overall. I am still seeing the

correlation after about a year of following it. It's nice because I

can eat most foods: meats, seafood, veggies, fruits, dairy, oils,

etc... There really are not that many foods you have to avoid.

I hope you are all doing well Patty
