should I just take L-argine and L-Citrulline? could someone also link me a post to buy them?

I just read a very informative article in Life Extension about the 2 items you are asking about. The article states that arginine spikes and then subsides ( not sure about the time frame) and citrilline stays in the blood stream longer. So I take the citrilline powder 3 to 6 grams per day. Great article that I can provide a link to whomever wants it.

Do a search on the forums or google it please.
"Arginine" and "Acetyl-L-Carnitine" are not even comparable and do not function in the same way at all.

Take citrulline, not arginine, unless you can't afford it. ALCAR has very little to do with ED, though it does improve vascular health.
Citrulline may also erode your teeth and give you acid reflux, since it's similar to malic acid. Take it in pill form or use a straw, or use arginine if you have to.

ALCAR may help prevent fibrosis and restore nerve function, but the increase in nitric oxide it produces is negligible.
Search the member Mattfoley for a post he made on a huge list of supplements for ED here on these forums.

There's ginseng, pine bark extract, maca, horny goat weed, damania.. etc. They all function differently and you have to be careful just what and how much you combine them.

If you go for L-arginine, you can safely take up to 4g a day. It will increase your levels of NO2 and help somewhat with your ED. However, Blooming is right, your body will develop a tolerance so every so often you need to stop taking it to allow yourself to reset. It's a popular supplement with body builders and something I read on a body building website suggested 2 months on and 1 month off.

I've also read that it may lower testosterone. I'm not sure, but in my experience while it helped somewhat with nocturnal erections, my libido did appear to suffer somewhat.
