Arginine a therapeutic (or non-essential)
amino acid, arginine is a precursor of nitric oxide. Since nitric oxide helps
relax the walls of the arteries, supplemental arginine may help to promote blood
flow throughout the body which can lead to a wide range of beneficial effects,
including everything from stroke prevention to increased erection.
Results of numerous studies have shown the
following:
- effective in the treatment of patients suffering from a host of heart
conditions
- significantly reduced mean arterial blood pressure and systemic vascular resistance in
congestive heart failure patients associated with coronary artery disease
- vasodilatory effects in patients suffering from various forms of
hypertension
- reversed IL-2-induced hypotensive effects in
patients with
metastatic renal cell carcinoma
- infants with persistent pulmonary hypertension
have also experienced benefits
-
anti-c activity of arginine has also been demonstrated in mice
- can help prevent stroke, reduce kidney collage
accumulation associated with aging, and protect against stress
- beneficial
effects against burns in guinea pigs
- intravenous administration
produced significant analgesiac effects in patients suffering from different
types of pain.
- can protect against liver
injury and ulcers in rats
- accelerated the healing of acetic acid-induced gastric ulcers in
human patients
- positive effects in patients with chronic persistent hepatitis.

Cysteine has exhibited preventive effects
against leukopenic complications associated with radiotherapy in c patients. Hypostatic leg ulceration patients treated with a topical cream
containing l-cysteine, glycine, and dl-threonin three times per week over a
period of twelve weeks experienced a significantly increased rate of healing
relative to patients being treated with cream base alone. Cysteine has also been
effective against allergic-contact dermatitis in guinea pigs.
