1. What is Mens Arginine 90 capsules and what does it do?
Mens Arginine 90 capsules is an L-arginine supplement for men — an amino acid for vasodilation via the nitric oxide (NO) pathway.
Main ingredient: L-arginine (essential amino acid, NO precursor). 90 servings = 30 days' supply at 3/day.
L-arginine is an amino acid that acts as a precursor for nitric oxide (NO) — a vasodilator. It is traditionally used in men's formulations for circulation support. EFSA has NOT approved any health claim for L-arginine — strictly descriptive.
2. Who is this suitable for?
For men 18+ who want L-arginine supplementation — DESCRIPTIVE.
- Men 18+ in a stack for circulation support (descriptive)
- Athletes for pump positioning (descriptive)
- Anyone who prefers amino acid supplementation over herbs
NOT suitable for: children under 18, herpes outbreaks (arginine activates the virus), recent heart attack, hypotension, kidney conditions.
