Well, just when you think that the human gene pool can sink no lower....
Here is the ProArgi-9 L-arginine Complexer Dietary Supplement brought to you by those fine folks at Synergy Worldwide...
So just what does this new powder do, you ask?
Why it is a multivitmin drink mix with a "proprietary blend" of the amino acid L-arginine, red wine extract and other ingredients that is able to cure clogged arteries, strokes, heart attacks, Alzheimer's, hypertension as well as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)!!!!!!!
Yup, you read it correctly.
If you are thiniking about taking this product, please take the time to read the Army Times article on this "wonder cure". According to their websites, ProArgi-9 has a group of A-list scientists supporting this product. Right up front is Dr. Louis Ignarro, winner of the 1998 Nobel Prize in Medicine for his research into L-arginine's role in the body's production of nitric oxide.
Just one problem....Dr. Ignarro is "not affiliated in any way with ProAgri-9, his images, videos and writings are being used in such a way as to make it seems that he endorses this product. This is inaccurate and appears to be misleading to consumers."
Oops!
Dr. Victor Dzau, Duke University Medical Systems Chancellor his name and quotes scattered throught ProAgri-9's literature. But Dr. Dzau "has no working relationship" with this company and has not approved the use of his photo or any information on ProAgri-9's website.
Ouch!
The American Diabetes Association is investigating this product for claiming that his work lead to a ADA adward
Damn! That has to hurt!
Finally, there is this from the American Heart Association, "long-term administration of L-arginine may even impair functional capacity, perhaps through an adverse effect on vascular reactivity."
In a double blind study with 133 patients with clogged arteries those taking a placebo fared better than the group taking L-arginine.
Another study in 1996 by the American Medical Association had to be cut short after 6 of 78 patients taking L-arginine died. No deaths were reported in the placebo group.
ProArgi-9 also contains 5,000 units of Vitamin D....the National Institutes of Health says that 4,000 units of Vitamin D is the upper limit of what is considered to be safe.
Yet these warnings are being ignored and ProArgi-9 is being marketed....
It always seems that when our service members are suffering, that some scumbag slimes his way out of the garbage with promises of easing the suffering and, of course, manages to make a tidy profit for themselves before disappering into the cess pool that bore them.
SHAME!:mad:
