Of the 29 give Arginine, nine (31%) reported significant sexual improvement. However it is significant to note that many factors contribute to erectile dysfunction. Some of these factors include low testosterone, diabetes and aging. |
| Women over 40 take notice-- Dr OZ says for every 10 years of age, menopausal women will gain 10 to 15 pounds and see a 5% metabolism decrease.

L arginine side effects-- no side effects occur with this amino acid in regulated amounts. Larger doses (above 3 grams at a time) can create stomach cramps, potassium imbalance, dehydration, nausea and digestive discomfort. People who are hemophiliacs, on blood thinners, those with low blood pressure, or those who have just suffered a heart attack should steer clear of Arginine. As always if you are unsure, please check with your doctor. ** On a personal note. Unless you are suffering for one of the above ailments, Arginine should be on everyone's health program. More than any of the aminos, its powerful effects are clearly noticeable within a few weeks. If you have heart issues expand your dosage to 3 to 5 grams daily (before breakfast, mid-mo ing, and after lunch ). That means allowing 1 1/2 hours of time after your last meal before taking your doses. It is also important that you allow at least 30 minutes after taking your doses to allow absorption before consuming food.

Working Together - We Can Create Friendship, Business and Love
As a member of The National Writers Union for many years, I have been aware of the problems experienced by educated, professional writers. Many have been deprived of their contracted fees. Others have had their writing plagiarized or syndicated without their consent and without payment to the writer by unscrupulous publishers and authors. But the Writers’ Union has done something about that. Jointly, as a group, they have managed to fight for the rights of individual writers.

Reawakening Love Now
Reawakening love IS possible. It happens all the time. Just when you most feel like giving up, letting go and moving on, stop and reevaluate before leaving. Yes, there are some relationships that have truly run their course. Perhaps the reason for connecting no longer exists and both would be happier elsewhere. But very often, two people reach an impassem, an inevitable butting of heads and personality differences, and instead of working through the issues they just give up and leave.

The Ultimate Virtual Assistant for Your Life, Your Relationships and Your Business
Ever since I began seeing my private therapy and coaching clients, over two decades ago, I have been longing to work with a Virtual Assistant. In fact, I wanted this type of personal assistance to help me cope with my family, my relationships, my career path, and even my health many years before this type of service became available online.
