Sometimes I order random supplements on a whim. I don’t remember why I ordered arginine.
It turns out that it very clearly and obviously helps my fiancee’s type 1 diabetes blood sugar control – like, a lot! We have a blood glucose meter and you can kind of just see it on the graph. Takes a while but the blood sugar just kind of obeys control a bit better if she takes arginine.
And it turns out there are a bunch of papers out on that too. I had no idea.
‘Effects of adding L-arginine orally to standard therapy in patients with COVID-19: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group trial. Results of the first interim analysis’ – https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=arginine%20diabetes&btn...
And it turns out that arginine supplementation seems to help in hospitalized COVID-19 patients. For reasons which make sense – including nitric oxide production and cardiovascular function.
Sunlight having an effect on nitric oxide production could be very important and useful for us to know! To help us manage her blood sugar and that whole biological picture. Thank you very much!
Oops!, please note: I pasted the title of the paper behind the second link… up there by the first link which is a Google Scholar search for “arginine diabetes”. And it’s too late to edit. Apologies!
