L-Arginine Review

 width=L-Arginine is another one of the 20 nonessential amino acids. In this context, nonessential mean that your body already produces a sufficient amount of them in your body. Common sources of l-arginine are poultry, seafood, dairy, and nuts. L-arginine has been shown to have benefits of increased muscle mass, reduced risk of heart disease, improved immune function, and decreased blood pressure.

Research

One study supported the claims that l-arginine helps increase muscle mass in swine ((Amino Acids, e-publication, Aug 6, 2008)). Another study ((Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 67(6), 1186-1189)) showed that l-arginine helped to stimulate the secretion of the growth hormone, also aiding in the increase of muscle mass. It is important to note that the amount used in the study was much higher than what you’re likely to find in a diet pill.

There is no research backing up claims that l-arginine is directly effective in weight loss.

Conclusion

With no clinical studies supporting the claims that l-arginine is effective in weight loss, we’re not able to recommend it as a proven diet pill ingredient. Studies do suggest that it may aid in increased muscle mass, but more research is needed to be definitive in that area as well. For now, thumbs down for l-arginine.

TOP 2 RATED DIET PILLS OF 2012
#1 Editor's Choice - Adapexin-P

We really like that Adapexin-P 37.5mg is very straight forward in their marketing and website approach. They have a clear focus on using clinically proven ingredients that will maximize your weight loss - which is the only way to sell a diet pill in our opinion.

With straight forward and honest marketing, proven ingredients, and a great Money Back Guarantee, we suggest that Adapexin-P is a high quality diet pill. Consumers are very satisfied with Adapexin, and so are we, making it our #1 product of choice.

#2 Consumers' Choice - Phenphedrine

Phenphedrine is the strongest diet pill around. It's one of the the only products we have ever reviewed that not only surpassed the weight loss results of the banned Fen-Phen, but is legal and extremely safe. The only reason it is not our #1 diet pill is because Adapexin-P is a bit less expensive.

Phenphedrine is ideal for someone who wants a diet pill / fat burner that contains some of the best ingredients available backed by a money back satisfaction guarantee. The price is great and you can't go wrong with their lifetime guarantee. We say give Phenphedrine a try. Two thumbs up!
