A member asked:
Is arginine safe to take? my brother-in-law has been encouraged to take "nitric factor" in the form of arginine, is this safe longterm?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Arginine: Like many supplements there aren't really any studies looking at longterm outcomes (5, 10, 15yrs). It's probably safe, but will it boost athletic performance in a meaningful way? Maybe, maybe not. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22251130.
