L-arginine. When is the best time to take?

**MagnumXXL01** · 01-29-2008

The best time to take Arginine is on an empty stomach right before bed. Dosages of over 6 grams release human growth hormone when taken at night, and the HGH is released while you sleep according to online sources that I've researched.

MXXL: I think I've heard this before. I can't recall where. Do you have any links to the sources?

remek can you please gimme some advice on what's the best dosage, times to take L-Arginine? MagnumXXL01 is saying that taking it at night is best for the hgh as hgh is released most when alseep. Which is what I really want, to have more overall growth and treasure above all, including pe. Because I also read in your The Penis Really Is A Muscle... thread in CC, a guy Hugh G rection says that the smooth muscle of the human penis can only grow with the help of HGH or 1GF-1. Speaking of which do you think its advisable to take IGF-1/11??? Does both IGF-1 and IGF-2 considerably increase prostate size? Or should L-Arginine be more than enough? What say you?

Currently I'm taking a NO2 supplement that contains 3000mg/3g L-Arginine Alpha Keto-Glutarate(AAKG) per serving. Each serving is 3 pills so each pill contains one gram of AAKG. MagnumXXL is also saying that above 6grams significantly increases HGH release. So should I reschedule my dosage to taking 6> pills at night and another serving later on. Thus far I've been taking 2 servings/6 pills a day, one serving at night and one serving in the morning.

Red: Great questions!

So you're currently taking 6 grams of L-Arginine (AAKG) a day? That should be plenty.

As for IGF-1/11 supplements, we don't need that to create more smooth muscle in terms of PE. If we did, then when we PE and our penises get bigger, our erections would get weaker. This comes down to the natural function of the smooth muscle in the penis: To produce strong, hard erections. The smooth muscle relaxes, presses against the tunica, and cuts off the veins that allow blood flow from leaving the penis.

If there isn't enough smooth muscle to press against the tunica (which presumably would happen if we didn't create more smooth muscle cells when we enlarged the tunica), then the veins wouldn't be effectively cut off and the erections would be weak.

Hope this helps. How have your gains been recently by the way? I'm curious what's your BPFSL and your BPEL, along with your erection quality (on a scale of 1 to 10)?

I have read that Hgh also helps with collagen and elastin as well. I don't know a lot about supplements but i was looking on the net and i found that most of the penis enlargement pills contain L-Arginine but i also found a somatroph-Hgh supplement at www.anabolic source.com that is supposed to be as good as the steroid type but alot more safer. I don't know the exact ingriedients but one of them is L-dopa .Can anyone give me any info on this? About how well it would work with pe?I do know that the human body produces its own naturally as with Test but also declines with age as well.And some people produce more or less than others and now that i am thinking about it . Could that be why people experience more/less gains? after all Hgh is the prime hormone in the human body. we could'nt grow without.Even though test is also important for us males. Any thoughts? thanks in advance.. steve

Thanks Remek, glad to be here!!!

I've read about it on several sources can't remember which one, but heres a link i came up with when I did a search:

Arginine Report

**remek** · 02-06-2008

MXXL: Thank you for the link. The website doesn't seem like the most legitimate resource, BUT it does have some reference notes, which is more than we can say for most of the sites out there. I bought two books that it referenced the "take before bedtime" recommendation to so I can double check their facts.

I'll let you know.
