The mouthwash thing was actually tested and verified in a study, and is mentioned frequently. The antacid thing I have only seen twice, and I think it is a surmise based on the digestive conversion requiring an acid environment (so that someone who constantly and daily takes a lot of antacid...

More studies showing Nitric Oxide production from Beets (in this case, one cup of beetroot juice), increases blood flow and lowers blood pressure - but only as long as it is taken regularly. Once a day was enough, since the effect lasted for 24 hours. Use of either mouthwash or antacid...

A couple of bits of info: 1) I discovered that Walmart has an "88 cents" section in the First Aid area. It's helpful to fill out your First Aid drawer with generic stuff like bandaids, etc. But one of the items is a Pill Cutter, so I got one to try out - and it works quite well. Not...

The official medical establishment has never given scientifically based diet information, and neither has the government. Of course, the reason is money and politics. Ironically, I have found that the UK has probably the least amount of scientifically accurate diet and nutrition information -...

More technical stuff for anyone interested. Basically, an explanation of why antioxidants (Pycnogenol, Grape Seed Extract, Hawthorn Extract, Cocoa extract, etc.) can be important for nitric oxide, is found on: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimethylargininase Pycnogenol is perhaps the best...

I found two articles on the subject (by a Swedish nutrition researcher who is also a bodybuilder). The first explains why Arginine works for some people and not others and the second is about the Nitrate pathway for Nitric Oxide...

I expect that supplementation at bedtime affects the body's repair processes during sleep. Supplements that increase blood flow during sleep might help those repair processes. Certainly the ergo-log graph indicates that by perhaps 3am, Citrulline is gone, but at least it was there during the...

If you are working out in the gym, and you want to maximized Nitric Oxide during your workout, then taking both will do that. Otherwise, L-Citrulline is more effective (as stated above by Examine.com). There are actually a lot of subtleties to the concept of increasing nitric oxide and...

That's a very interesting study, thanks. It does verfiy the same factor that Examine.com points out, which is that Arginine is gone after an hour or two, and thereafter it is only Citrulline. So, if you are going to workout, then adding Arginine to the Citrulline is a benefit, but longer term...

That may work for you, but I have found that I cannot get above 6mg a day of tadalafil without side effects. I gradually increased the dose over many weeks from 2mg every other day to 3.5mg at bed and 2.5mg in the morning, and that is as much as I can take. Interestingly, at that point, if I...

If you have a half hour to let medical doctors explain why you do not need to "treat high cholesterol", then see: http://vimeo.com/77730824

A truly healthy man who did not workout, would have no reason to ever take any pill in his life.

Alcohol does not affect the stack, but a quantity before making love does negatively affect "wood" :) (for anyone who was not aware of that). Same for caffeine, by the way - it is a "vasoconstrictor", while the stack is a "vasodilator". I find that the Tadalafil is slow to go away and slow to...

Supplements work best at bedtime, unless they are: * Energizing - and thus give you insomnia (CoQ10, or ALCAR for example) and/or * Best taken with food (fish oil or krill oil, most vitamins and minerals) When you are asleep, the supplement can be absorbed and take effect without interference...

The first paragraph of the first post says what it is for. BTW Gene - you should add the Beets to the first post. And, if anyone is wondering what Beet powder to get, I've had good success with this one (although I have not personally tried others)...

Make sure you have the correct web site. If you read the thread, some people had used a very similar name, something like .com instead of .net, and ended up with a different web site. Every major web site has many copycat sites that are slightly different names.

Scientific analysis does say that L-Citrulline is better. The only exception is spiking levels right before a workout. See examine dot com.

First, none of us are doctors, and you should consult with your doctor about your specific health issues. So, the following are generalities that may or may not apply to a specific person. Okay, I am assuming that "slight BP problems" is slight high blood pressure. One of the side effects...

They talk about dosages in the Examine.com link, and Gene has suggestions in the first post of the thread. (In the Examine.com articles, note that they will have a lot of technical details, but they put a Summary at the top, along with "How to Take" and "Editors Thoughts", which are all...

By the way, amazingly enough, you can make the stack more delicious by adding one-third of a Lindt or other brand 85% Cocoa Dark Chocolate bar daily - more studies have been done demonstrating blood flow improvement from Cocoa flavonols than any other supplement. See...

L-Citrulline is probably the most important part of the stack. L-Arginine is only helpful a half hour before a workout (of whatever kind :) ), because it dissipates quickly. For more details.see: http://examine.com/supplements/Citrulline/

I don't doubt that "Liquid Cia" works - otherwise they wouldn't get any repeat orders. However, if I am ingesting something daily, I would rather have some indication that it does not have heavy metals or other contaminants. The Tadacip product from Cipla is manufactured in relatively high...

A web search shows that tadalafil is insoluble in water, and poorly dissolves in any liquid. (This is why the "Liquid Cia" users describe having to shake the product every time. That aside from the fact that I am not interested in the product because they won't disclose what is in it, aside...

You should read the customer comments on the scale, they can give you some idea of the accuracy. I suppose it would depend on how much binder - i.e. how much total weight. The scale is about $25, and apparently the next level up of accuracy is $100-$200. And it also depends on how critical it...

Yes they do. But you know how much tadalafil is in one pill - 20mg. So, if you want 5mg, that's a quarter of that. Whatever 20mg pill you have, you weigh one. Mine are about 0.348 grams. Then for a quarter, divide by 4 - with a calculator (most PCs have one in "Accessories" or you can even...

So my previous tadalafil were "Megalis" by McLeods India, and these ones that Secure provides are "Tadacip" by Cipla. One difference is that the Megalis were round and so, with a pill splitter, you could split them into halves, and then quarters, and then even eighths. But the Tadacip are...

That's a good site for getting ideas for things to try. Unfortunately, there isn't a lot of careful science going on there - for example, the site is one of the last bastion's of the discredited "low fat" myth. (Which is odd, considering that the Body Building community was the first to widely...

So, one part of the stack that bears some attention is the Horny Goat Weed. You mentioned using the Vitamin Shoppe product which contains per capsule I agree generally with the idea of synergy, but Icariin basically inhibits PDE5 and Tadalafil does that so well that I am not sure Icariin does...

So, some cool personal experience that validates the basic idea of this stack. I'm in my late 50's, and about ten years ago was the first time that I had any erectile problem, and back then, I got some Generic Tadafil (Megalis by McLeod India) but at that time did not care for it, and put the...

This turns out to be true - it is the Citrulline that lasts longer. Examine.com says: I have ordered a Sustained Release Arginine tablet, and will report back on whether it is worthwhile.

Aha! I had to go to the legal documents for the lawsuit over Viagra by Pfizer against Teva from 2011. There I found statements of fact that are carefully checked for accuracy, because Pfizer do not want their decision thrown out over a technicality. Here are the quotes: There was a footnote...
