Perfusia-SR 120c byThorne
Perfusia-SR by Thorne is used to promote cardiovascular health, wound healing, and immune fuction. L-arginine is a semi-essential amino acid, participates in many pathways in the human body. It helps regulate the release of insulin, glucagon, neurotransmitter chemicals, and growth hormone. It also is a precursor of nitric acid, which promotes blood vessel relaxation. Blood vessel relaxation is important in maintaining heart health, reproductive health, vascular health, and protection from oxidative damage. L-arginine may also promote wound healing. Perfuia-SR (sustained release) keeps L-arginine levels in the blood constant when only used twice daily unlike traditional-release L-arginine supplements that necessitate a large number of servings throughout the day. *Recommendation:
Thorne suggest taking 2 L-Arginine - Sustained Release capsules two times daily, or as directed by a healthcare professional.
