Working outFeb 08, 2010
By Derek Sturdavant It seems to enhance muscle tone a little bit. Definatelly increases power. it is extremely obvious that it does relax blood vessels because my.. um.. thing.. becomes more vascular consistantally when taking this product. I googled this effect and found out than many male enhancment products contain around 2000 mg of L- arginine a day. I cut back to breaking one in half and taking one in the morning and one before i work out and it seems to have stoped.
Other facts -It is believed to increase levels of HGH or human growth hormone -help make more nitric oxide which relaxes blood vessels. +this may also help men sexually -supports protein synthesis as it is involved in the transport and storage of nitrogen -Never use after a heart attack +A study was conducted on taking this product after a heart attack and 6 people died. None of the placebo group died.

No customer service===Jan 08, 2010
By W. A. Gallagher Jr. These capsules explode in the bottle. Yes I kid you not. Half are gone. Customer service at Now Foods says that I ordered the wrong thing. Everybody is supposed to know that they are unstable and this is a common problem. Even though the date on the bottle is 07/2011. One may ask what is the significance of this date. Now Foods wont do anything, like replace them, so dont buy these pills from them.

Served its purposeApr 23, 2010
By Alice Wonder I bought this for my sister who was having...ummm... shall we say desire problems. Apparently your libido pretty much disappears on some antidepressants. This, according to her, worked like a charm and brought hers back. I would consider buying it for that purpose.
Exploding Pills!May 15, 2012
By ANGEL F. COLON This product has always been good, but this is the first time I purchased it in 1000mg tablets (I usually get the 500mg ones). The only problem I've had with these is that once I remove a pill from the original container to put it into my pill carrying case for the day, they tend to burst and release the powder all over the place, if they're there for an hour or two. It hasn't happened with every pill, but I would say about 30% of the time. I realize that they should be in the container with the desicant, but I've never had this problem before with the other lower dosage pills.

Do Not Buy Can Cause HarmSep 18, 2010
By Gerard T. Infanger The tablets, stored in the original container with the moisture absorbent packs, "exploded", bursting the thin shell containing the powder. I used what I thought was an intact capsule that leaked powder on my tongue severely "burning" it.
I contacted customer service. They knew of the problem and acted as if the "exploding tablets" were my fault, telling me to dispose of the tablets. Great advice! They also got rid of me as a customer forever.
The company knows the product is defective and can cause harm. I am amazed that they have not issued a recall.
The only reason I rated this product a one is because the system does not provide for negative numbers.
