Agmatine, great effects but somewhat concerning that it lowers my blood pressure

Original post in this thread

Pretty-Wolf · 8 points

I bought agmatine from ND and had great mood boosting effects from it. Also my pump at the gym was amazing however every single time i take my normal dose (500-1G) my resting blood pressure drops from 110/70 to 103 / 60.

I thought this was just a misreading from my blood pressure monitor so i went to my doctor who is also a friend of mine since he has a calibrated machine also he took my blood pressure manually and my blood pressure was 100/60.

Obviously i got the all clear after running some tests and so on and we concluded after that it must be the agmatine since after the next 2 days i had my normal blood pressure back again.

I was just wondering what is the reason for this? And if anyone else has the same reaction i have?

Also let me know if this kind of post is better suited for another subreddit but i figured since i use ND agmatine i should post it here.

Agmatine increases nitric oxide, which dilates blood vessels, which lowers blood pressure. That's a normal effect.

500mg to 1g is a pretty healthy dose. Have you tried lowering it to 250mg? That's what I usually take.

Who's buying what tomorrow?

Replying to drop0dead · This is the second year this has happened while I'm out of work, makes me want to cry. If I had any cash I'd get centrophenoxine, agmatine, skull cap, kava, nmn, nr, and ginger.

PM me when you are back working. I will get you taken care of.

Agmatine drama

Where are you seeing this drama? First, it's important to acknowledge that agmatine is a naturally occurring compound produced by beneficial gut bacteria like Lactobacillus and found in some fermented foods. One of the m

Why such a huge difference in pricing for Agmatine capsule vs powder?

Honestly, I have not looked at agmatine pricing in a while. We always do price adjustments if a raw material goes up by more than 20%. There is a possibility that the raw material went up in price when we got a batch in

Agmatine, Piracetam, Kava and Phenibut arrived to Germany

It probably helps that we moved to Asendia, which clears the packages in France and the Netherlands instead of Germany like DHL Ecommerce did. German customs are always horrible to deal with.
