ABSTRACT:
Endothelial nitric oxide production is enhanced by administration of arginine or lysine as a dietary supplement. Enhanced nitric oxide production from arginine supplementation improves vascular function and structure. Additional compounds may be administered with arginine or lysine to further enhance nitric oxide activity, including calcium, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, vitamin C, vitamin B, coenzyme Q, carotene, or glutathione.
