Supps & Heart

[shoichi]

I was thinking, would any supps have an effect on the heart - like enlarging the heart as a side effect?

Are there any other sides related to the heart that I should be aware of, particularly w/1AD? Wondering because my family has a history of heart problems.

Thanks

hGH would enlarge your heart (like any other muscle)

but no "normal" supps will do it

Some may have the propensity to affect the heart in susceptible individuals. I don't know if any research exists pointing any of them to hypertrophy, but as far as other effects go, they are worth looking into. Ephedrine, Norephedrine, possibly Yohimbine, and possibly some Pro-Hormones and Steroids (if they alter LDL/HDL ratios).

I have read protein and homocysteine together in some posts, but don't know if a relation exists. B-6,B-12, and Folate help lower it, in any case.

There may be others as well.
