No both: Oil fish is more used for treatment of hyperglycemia and you must take about 6 caps daily and L-arginine can help for muscle growth. But i prefer creatine.

Not sure: Minimum recommended dose: 500 mg of omega-3 per day. L-arginine: the therapeutic dosage (maximum dose considered to be safe) is 400-6, 000 milligrams.
