Supplements and Vitamins Help

[John12 Junior Member Find all posts View Profile Close John12]

hey all, first thread

I was wondering what everyone uses as suppements and how effective they consider them to be?

I've heard many us omega3 oils and L-Argenine in comination with L-lysine. Now as I would consider my EG to be 9.5-10 and already having an incredibly hard time not masturbating (too much) in the pursuit of gains(in other words, Im horny all the time) I'm worried that using these supplements would decrease EQ or drive if ever I weened off them later on. From what I gater L-Argenine is suppodely a great sex drive booster which I dont want, would it better to stay off it as I risk to become dependant upon it in the future? How effective is it in terms of gains anyway?

I appreciate the help.

Omega 3
ginger
gensing
ginko biloba
garlic caps
green tea
centrum multivitamin

I have also seen a better flaccid since taking these, and an increase in EQ though. Considering ive only been doing very light PE lately, I think they are a good part of that reason.

where does that list come from? Other people seem to have the same supplements.

Do you guys have any opinions with regards to L Arginine?

[tahksis Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close tahksis]

l-arginine is good for blood flow and can help with erections, however if you get cold sores you shouldnt take it as it can cause outbreaks.

Yeah John i've recently started L-arg, o-3, green tea caps, zinc, and i'm already noticing increased eq and hang. Boxer, Tahksis, do you guys cycle your supp's, or do them everyday? Cheers

@John12
"Now as I would consider my EG to be 9.5-10 "

EQ or EG? Kinda hoping, for your own sake, you mean EQ:-)

But if indeed you meant EG, then you got one fat dick...

ZMA
Omega 3 &/or flaxseed
Multi Vits (alternating 2 or 3 brands)
Saw Palmetto
Acai
L-Arginine -( have reduced this down to 1000mg per day )
Siberian Ginseng
Ginko Biloba
Rooibos Tea - experimenting with this

& am trying to reduce sugar intake - which is the real erection killer, going to reduce number of the above. I respond v well to ZMA

Hold up Vulcan, sugars an EQ killer? I've heard something about this around the forums, and i know sugar isn't good for you, but i had no idea there was a correlation with EQ?

im on 500g of l-arginine a day and since taking i have found EQ has increased its resonable cheap compared to other supplements the other one im on is koren ginseng ive always wondered what Gineng is best theres siberian, koren u name it lol. Be honest not sure what this has done but apparently it increases sexual desire as it give u energy im on 3 capsules a day which i have in the morning with breakfast one for with my lunch and tea. Ive also noticed when doin PE the blood does go into my penis alot easier if that makes any sence feels like its more effectie than when i wasent on it.

Well badly controlled blood sugar leads to micro-vascular complications in diabetics, one of which is ED. Flooding our bodies with simple carbs is one of the worst things we can do for EQ in my opinion.

I am not claiming to be an expert & can't remember the exact way (re EQ), i used to sit in on a lot of lectures by Diabetologists when I was a medical rep, and this topic came up ( i remember it clearly, because my ears pricked up). I notice it myself - my EQ improves when I use a low GI diet.

Sugar is bad for our testosterone levels also. Chromium is a good supplement for normalising blood sugar.

My thoughts exactly.

Vulcan, yeah its something i'm trying to watch, and diabetes is in the family. I drink a lot of pure fruit juice through the day. Theres a lot of natural sugars obviously. Do you think it would be wise to cut down? (i do have EQ issues) I'm realising every day on here that i'm just scratching the surface when it comes to nutrition, i got no idea.
