Those are good for bodybuilding purposes as a dietary supplement, but PE-wise I don't think they're the best solution because of the low amount of L-Arginine (that 86mg per serving isn't even funny) and the total absence of L-Ornithine. Of course different aminos have different roles in our body and those can't hurt PE-wise either, but for best results I'd recommend taking some extra L-Arg&L-Orn supplements with those.

I don't think it is good product.

There are 8 essential amino acids in the body. This means that the body can't manufacture them on its own and they must be supplied from outside sources. The rest of the amino acids on the list can be synthesized from various other amino acids and precursors. That product listed shows the proteins measured in milligrams so the actual amount you get is very small. I think it would be more beneficial nutritionally to have a standard protein shake where the protein content is measured in grams.

Yeah, couldn't have said that better myself. Taking those won't hurt, but the benefits are probably next to nothing. Had another look at the specs and the doses in those pills are almost a joke.

Just start drinking more water and stop the bitching :lol: :lol: :lol:


Actually they were messing with me for a while so now I take one tablet in the morning and then one before bed. Also helps keep the piss from being golden.
