Arginine is an amino acid that is present in food and, when broken down by the body, produces nitric oxide. Biofeedback expert Fried and Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons internist Merrell discuss how arginine, taken as a daily supplement, can work to prevent or reduce cardiovascular disease and enhance healing. Chapters explain how arginine helps the circulatory system, lowers blood pressure, prevents atherosclerosis, enhances sexuality, and strengthens the immune system. Pertinent, extensive medical references (almost 40 pages) are included. Readers are warned to consult their physicians, and cautions are issued for contraindications. A thought-provoking book that will be a good addition to alternative health collections.AJanet M. Schneider, James A. Haley Veterans Hosp., Tampa, FL
