Big Al had a discussion somewhere about Lysine canceling out some of the L Arginine effects. I think if you are looking for improved blood flow then go with the L Arg only as long as you don't have any skin related problems. It would be interesting to know what ratio would produce the best results of the two combined. It said up to 10 grams of Lysine can be taken, I have never took that much before. Any recomendations?

If you take to much arginine then lysine cannot convert to carnitine. Over 15 grams of arginine is to much and the body will flush out it don't need. nuts and seeds have the perfect ratio of arginine and lysine. I would 4 grams of AAKG to 500mg of lysine taken at opposite ends of the day.

If your prone to herpes you don't want to take arginine. Arginine aggravates these symptoms and causes a proliferation of herpes. So in this case best to take a 50/50 ratio of arginine and lysine.

I take Lysine everyday with breakfast. I feel slightly better than I used to, before I stared taking it.

whenever taking ay amino acids, the best time to take them is at nite on a empty stomach about 30 minutes before bed. also this is the best time to take zinc. which i prefer the ZMA formula. also i usually take 5 grams lysine with 5 grams arginine. watchout it u get the shits, thats means to much arginine and u need to build up slower

What about something like this?

Holland and Barrett - Body Fortress L-Arginine L-Ornithine L-Lysine

An all in one tablet? Plus it appears here that L - Ornithine induces the release of growth hormone in the body!

That sounds good. Both arginine and lysine also boost HGH.

Kingpole,

I've bought this product now and will test it out. At the moment I'm taking 4 x 500mg L-Arginine tablets 2 hours after breakfast. These tablets are just standard L-Arginine from a heath food shop.

What I'll do now is take these new tablets in addition before I go to bed at night. That will mean my overall L-Arginine intake each day will be around 3200 or so and they say between 3000-5000 per day is what you need to simulate HGH. I dunno but I'll give it a go and report back.

All I know is that I took them last night for the first time and woke up a couple of times in the night with a raging boner, so they're obviously doing something.

I'll report back when I've been taking them for a week or so to let you know the results

Hey KP. How much AAKG would be the recommended amount?
