Author(s)

Keywords

L-arginine

Athletic Performance

Body Composition

Cardiovascular Disease

Hypertension

Abstract

Introduction: Due to controversies in different studies about the effects of L-arginine supplementation on Athletic Performance and cardiovascular risk factors, this study aimed to review the current evidence on the effects of L-arginine supplementation on Athletic Performance and cardiovascular risk factors. Methods: This study was done to summarize findings from earlier evidence on the effect of Larginine supplementation on the risk of Cardiovascular Disease. We searched in PubMed, Scopus and Google Scholar through 1975 till 2017 using the following keywords: cardiovascular OR Athletic Performance OR Hypertension OR blood pressure OR sports performance OR lipid profile in combination with L-arginine OR arginine. After reviewing title and abstracts, all clinical trials and cross-sectional studies conducted on healthy people or those suffering from the disease were included. Results: In most studies, consumption of L-arginine supplementation improves Athletic Performance and Body Composition in athletes, although there are some contradictions in this field. Most studies confirmed the effect of L-arginine on decrease cardiovascular risk factors, and most of the work considered that this effects as a result of increased levels of nitric oxide (NO) in serum. Conclusions: Most of the clinical trials indicated favorable effects of L-arginine supplementation on Athletic Performance and cardiovascular risk factors and taking this supplement at a dose of 25 grams per day has no side effects and promotes the health. Due to controversies in some study for giving high doses of this supplement more research is needed to identify the complete related mechanisms of this effect.
