I just bought some L-Arginine powder

I usually use Twin Labs L-Arginine with good results but wanted to try some powder in bulk form. I ordered Now Sports 2.2lb L-Arginine powder. The package arrived in yesterday’s mail. I excitedly opened the box and took out the plastic jar. I then twist off lid, take a big sniff and to my surprise, the powder smells like ejaculate. Just to be sure I wasn’t crazy, I brought it to my wife and asked her to smell it. She made a face and said “that smells like jack” lol! So, if you like the smell of seminal fluid, this is the product for you :D

Being careful not to sniff it, I took one scoop on an empty stomach before I went to bed last night. I just dumped a 3gram scoop in my mouth and chased it with some water. It mildly upset my stomach so I recommend mixing it with water or juice in a cup first instead.

Now we’re talking Mowerman.

Yeup, smells like jizz. From my experience, supplementing with it makes your jizz smell/taste stronger. My significant other agreed. lol

I’ll have to get my wife to find out :D

Might want to start chugging pineapple juice and throw down some bananas. Might help her out a bit. LOL

Be careful with your dosage. Taking too much will give you some nasty shit attacks…I speak from experience.

Thanks! The product recommends one 5g dosage per day. I plan on doing two, 3g scoops once in the morning and once at night. I think spacing out the dosage will avoid any problems.

Hey Lawnmowerman, L-arginine is awesome stuff but L-citrulline is much much cheaper and you can buy it in bulk powder form, I switched to the L-citrulline and it works very well for me, I think I get better results from it than the arginine, so you should pick some up to test and see if its as good or better than the Arginine.

Pure L-citrulline smells and tastes exactly like cum as well so I feel odd when I take some lol, for the longest time I thought some company was punking me and putting their cum in my product but you just made me feel better.

A lot of well meaning but missinformed advice here. For starters you should be careful about taking arginine before bed because in a few people it does cause upset stomach and may cause a slight build up of amonia (a byproduct of muscles) in the brain which can lead to slight insomnia. It’s not dangerous but of this happens to you them you can easily remedy this with 100-200mg of ALA.

Read your label carefully and make sure they didn’t throw in any form of caffeine or any stimulating junk which can kill a good night of sex or sleep with the amount they use. It sounds like you got the good micro stuff though. Btw check out supplementdirect.com next time you order for somebod the cheapest deals.

Technically arginine is one of the main amino acids that make up semen so I can see where you can get the comparison from. Personally I think of it more as clorox than anything else.

Citrulline and arginine do combine well with one another because somebod Citrulline transforms into arginine which combines with the citric acid to help it more readily absorb, but the two are not one in the same. Personally for the money I would recommend just one gram of arginine on an empty stomach (no juice) 30 min prior to pe, and 3-10g for more bodybuilding and fitness purposes. Now if you combine that with a gram of Horney goat weed and picnaginol (idk if it spelled right) if you can afford it ($1 a pill most often) then you have a great recipe for a vasodilator. Just avoid the caffiene if you don’t want a serious crash.

Hope this helped

Not to hijack the thread, but do you recommend taking both L-Arg (or AAKG) and L-Citrulline? And from what you’re saying, the two are not interchangeable? Last, is it Pycnogenol you’re referring to? If so, what does Pycnogenol do?

I’ve taken both arginine and citrulline together with workouts which gave amazing results. Pycnogenol o have only read about in bodybuilding mags that claim it extends the pump from arginine.
With pe purposes these big supplement company’s sugar and snake oil tubs aren’t necessary at all. I’ve been experimentig my self and found that 1 gram of arginine, with 1 gram of Horney goat weed, combined with anything to raise circulation and core temp like Ginger or a bite of lean protein does the trick.

Scientifically there in not any real aphrodisiac but I found the easiest and cheapest method is to eat a lean protein and complex carb meal 2 hours before pe, drink a lot of water, then before you attempt take a little Ginger and arginine, stretch your legs and rub your stomach down to your crotch, and think or sexy thoughts. Enjoy.

I’ve used bulk Now brand arginine and honestly think it did little to nothing for either erection quality improvement nor ejaculate increase. I went has high as 6 grams a day I think?

I have used other brands to the same effect.

I also used a combo product with arginine, aakg, and citrulline. It was expensive stuff. Quality company but I forget which? It was years back. And for the 130 bucks I shelled out for 4 bottles. It was pretty much delivered the same results I had above.

Now HGW does work. You will have to take it for a few days to maybe 2 weeks before you notice the improvement. But it works.

Grape seep extract nor Pycnogenol did not appear to help anything.

I essentially suffer no erection problems. So that could be why I notice no improvement with food extracts like arginine,etc? I also never noticed any effects from using that stuff while working out.
I do believe there is health benefits to it’s use but it was a bust for me for it’s intended use.

Does anyone know what brand of l-arginine is the best?

And does it increase testosterone? And is it okay to take with MACA?

No brand! L-Arginine AKG is best for the price and dosage. You can take it with anything except fats.

In my opinion NOW brand is a trustworthy and quality company. What they say is in their products is in there products. They will send back any raw material that is contaminated with anything that does not belong or does not meet their quality standards.

I am sure there are other companies that are just as good. The GNC (Rite Aid Pharmassure is GNC btw) and TwinLabs products I have bought have always been quality products but get costly.

Surprisingly I have had good success with Mason Brand but they have had a on again off again bad reputation.
