Davros - There are many positive, beneficial effects from L-arginine. However, a number of years ago, I recall reading about potential L-arginine side effects. Undoubtedly, it depends on how much you are taking as well as whether you have healthy kidney function (as reflected by lab tests). The indication was that L-arginine can cause high potassium levels. As we know, high potasby Jackie - AFIBBERS FORUM

Hello - NotLying... and welcome. Just a couple of comments about increasing the vitamin D levels... I'm slammed for time so will try to elaborate more later if you are interested or send me a PM.

Clip (quote) from a report on CV19 – What really turned my head around was a study[3] looking at 101 cases of COVID-19 patients who all had pneumonia. All had imaging of their lungs, from multiple centers in China, called lung CT scans. What was startling, as scientists and government have been saying that mostly the elderly are at risk, was that 70% of these 101 COVID-19 pneumonia patieby Jackie - GENERAL HEALTH FORUM

There are numerous forms of magnesium and it’s known that some people do well on one form and others, do not. It’s been fairly well documented here over many years that you have to experiment to see what works for you.

Hi Liz - Yes, while I do take the LivOn Lipospheric Vitamin C and use it regularly in cold/flu season and I have not noticed any adverse effects...including thyroid…. Only positive results in that it does boost one's immune system significantly - thus helping to prevent colds and flu - so far for many years now.

So Liz - is there an indication of the ingredients in the energy drink and the quantities of same... or the name of the energy drink so those can be viewed online?

Hi Mike - Yes... the LivOn Labs is the brand I've used for a number of years and found it to be highly effective in that if I felt symptoms coming on... immediately dosing with their LipoC worked very well as a preventive measure.

Hi Sam - Do on online search for high-dose Vitamin C for BPH.

Good info, Todd. Thanks. Definitely, as Dr. Levy observes in his talks and books, the IV Vitamin C is highly effective..when it's available and administered in medical settings. In a crisis situation where populations may overwhelm medical facilities, those at home can have similar results with the lipospheric form of C. Just plan ahead and stock up.

Do a topic search here for posts on K2 MK7. There are many and with lots of good information. The point is that when you begin optimizing vitamin D3 intake or if you would test (25 OHD test) and have a naturally high level, then you need to balance that out by taking the form of Vitamin K2 - Menaquinone 7 - which helps direct circulating calcium into bones (where it belongs) and helps prevby Jackie - AFIBBERS FORUM
