Arginine
Arginine- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.
This supplement has been used in connection with the following health conditions:
Used for Amount Why Angina2 to 3 grams three times per day 
[2 stars] In one study, taking arginine improved the ability of angina sufferers to exercise. Detailed studies have proven that arginine works by stimulating blood vessel dilation.Congestive Heart Failure5.6 to 15 grams per day with a doctor's supervision [2 stars] The body needs arginine to make nitric oxide, which increases blood flow. This process is impaired in people with CHF. It also has been shown to improve kidney function in people with CHF.Erectile Dysfunction1,670 to 2,800 mg daily [2 stars] Blood vessels need arginine to dilate and form an erection. Supplementing with arginine has been shown to help men with erectile dysfunction in some studies.HIV and AIDS Support and Preservation of Lean Body Mass
(Glutamine, HMB)1.5 grams of HMB, 7 grams of L-glutamine, and 7 grams of L-arginine twice per day [2 stars] The combination of glutamine, arginine, and HMB may prevent loss of lean body mass in people with AIDS-associated wasting.Male Infertility4 grams daily [2 stars] The amino acid arginine is needed to produce sperm. Research shows that several months of L-arginine supplementation increases sperm count, quality, and fertility.Pre- and Post-Surgery Health12.5 to 18.75 grams daily before and after surgery [2 stars] The amino acid arginine has a role in immune function, infection prevention, and tissue repair after injury, including surgery.Sickle Cell Anemia and Pulmonary Hypertension
(L-Arginine)100 mg per 2.2 lbs (1 kg) of body weight, three times per day [2 stars] People with pulmonary hypertension (a life-threatening complication of sickle cell anemia) who received L-arginine had significant improvement in one study.Athletic Performance and Body Composition and StrengthRefer to label instructions 
[1 star] At very high intakes, the amino acid arginine has increased growth hormone levels, which stimulate muscle growth. Trials combining weight training with arginine and ornithine showed decreases in body fat and increases in total strength and lean body mass.Female Infertility and In Vitro FertilizationRefer to label instructions [1 star] Supplementing with L-arginine has been shown to improve fertility in women with a history of failed attempts at in vitro fertilization.GastritisRefer to label instructions [1 star] The amino acid arginine may both protect the stomach and increase its blood flow.HypertensionRefer to label instructions [1 star] The amino acid arginine is needed by the body to make nitric oxide, a substance that allows blood vessels to dilate, thus reducing blood pressure. Arginine given orally and intravenously has been reported to help reduce blood pressure.Wound HealingRefer to label instructions [1 star] Arginine appears to improve wound healing by increasing protein synthesis.The amino acid arginine has several roles in the body, such as assisting in wound healing, helping remove excess ammonia from the body, stimulating immune function, and promoting secretion of several hormones, including glucagon, insulin, and growth hormone.

I take some right before bed to enhance natural HGH production.
Comments about GNC Pro Performance® L-Arginine L-Ornithine:
I cannot of course say that all will have this benefit . At the age of 47 I noticed my siemen volume had declined by about 50 to 60% which they say is medically normal. Even though I also take medically prescribed injectible Testosterone whihc enhanced energy and sex drive it did not increase siemen volume. I went on a search for suppliments said to do so. Both suppliments in this products were said to help so I decided to try it . I should say I am not like many who expect instant overnight results. As they say Rome truly was not built in a day nor was the conditions we have as human beings. Patience is a must as the human body is perhaps the most complex machine on the planet. It needs time to asorb things and decide how it will best use them. Over the course of a month 3 a day not missing a dose the results came and I credit them to this product. Though taking them with depo testosterone may play a role fact is Siemen volume increased greatly once I added this suppliment. I should stress though this review is not about Depo testosterone whihc should never be taken unless prescribed for a valid medical condition as is my case and then only after I had months of Blood work and other tests to get to the root of my extreme fatigue ,loss of sex drive,inability to focus .If your suffer these issues see your doctor. This review is though a stellar report on this GNC product which will remain a daily part of my suppliment regimen always. I have also tried others products including those specifically developed to increase male siemen volume yet they were not near as positive in their results as this product. I then read the bottle labels and found the reason likely to be this products super high mg amounts versus the other products much lower mg amounts.
If you travel do not put this product in your pill holder as I did. When exposed to long prior to taking ,this item will crumble into a fine powder when simply touched. Not sure if this is due to air ,light or both. Just keep it in the black bottle it comes in and you will be fine . I take 3 of these a day all at the same time with lunch and that is what works for me .
Best wishes to all.Pros
