Been Taking Proteins And Aminos For Gyming. Will This Effect Erection And Sperm Count?
Thanks for writing in to us.
The penis is the sexual organ in males and a male gets erection when excited and to perform sexual act.
Proteins are made of amino acid units and are an integral part of our normal diet.
Potency and sexual performance can also be positively influenced by specific amino acids. This is particularly the case for the amino acids arginine, ornithine and acetyl L carnitine. Arginine is a precursor of nitric oxide and has many positive effects on the body.
1. Arginine
Increasing the arginine intake increases the nitric oxide level in the blood. Nitric oxide relaxes blood vessel walls and thus improves blood circulation throughout the body, including those in the penis.
Furthermore, Arginine elevates the concentration of nitric oxide, which increases the arterial elasticity.This effect can reduce blood pressure and improve erectile processes. Along with this, nutrients and oxygen can be transported at a faster pace to the organs, which has an overall positive effect on potency, endurance and sexual performance.
2. Ornithine
The amino acid ornithine is a perfectly-suited supplement to arginine. It is reduced to arginine in the body, but this occurs very slowly, so that its effects last a long time.10 The combination of both amino acids improves the overall regeneration capability of the body and leads to a noticeable increase in vitality. This positive increase is proven to support erectile capabilities in men.
3. Acetyl L Carnitine
Often referred to as ALCAR, this amino acid has numerous important functions in the body, including protecting the nerve cells from damage, rebuilding nerve tissue, promoting healthy circulation, and regulating metabolic activity. In terms of men's sexual health, ALCAR promotes adequate erectile function by helping to maintain the nerve pathways between the brain and penis, facilitating the neural messages that signal the blood vessels to relax and allow the erectile chambers to fill with blood.
Additional sexual health benefits of ALCAR include protection against inflammation of the reproductive tissue, as well as protecting against the disfiguring connective tissue disorder known as Peyronie's disease. Men who have low levels of testosterone and decreased sex drive may also benefit from increasing their intake of acetyl L carnitine.
These amino acids are available in a wide variety of foods. The primary source for acetyl L carnitine is red meat, while L arginine is readily found in many dairy products, red meats, poultry, wild game, seafood, wheat, seeds, nuts and legumes. These nutrients are also frequently taken in supplement form, especially by body builders who are looking to increase their muscle mass.
From above discussion, it is seen that some particular amino acids arginine, ornithine and acetyl L carnitine are beneficial for erection of penis and potency when taken in optimum amounts.

You may continue taking the supplements in recommended doses. Also see the date of manufacture and date of expiry and do not consume after expiry date.

As fat burning supplements flood the market promising effortless weight-loss, people may wonder if there is a downside to these medications. There are three main ways in which “fat burning” supplements accomplish their mission.
1. By fat blocking mechanism
2. By appetite suppression
3. By increased metabolism
So Are They Safe?
Fat burning supplements will usually, to an extent, do what they say they will. Some authorities claim that these types of supplements can safely be used in small amounts, and they can be effective at initial stages of weight loss. But the means the drugs employ to do so might involve manipulating the body’s natural processes, sometimes causing severe side effects.
Anyone with any sort of pre-existing heart, hormonal or digestive condition should seriously consider avoiding fat burning supplements. For other people, it remains a personal choice, but one that should be made with caution.
