The rationale for combining L-arginine, apart from the mutually potentiating action, is the close pharmacokinetic profile, with both reaching the plasma peak between 30 and 60 min, and decrease in 1 to 2 hours
Proteins are more fragile than most people realize
Genetic variation in the GLP1R gene (rs6923761), GIPR receptor (rs1800437), and metabolic genes like FTO (rs9939609) influence both efficacy and side-effect tolerance
