This is another way of saying that nutraceuticals contain nutrients that not only serve their function in providing us with sustenance but also serve the function of preventing possible future health problems.

Some examples of natural compounds are vitamins, minerals, omegas, and herbal extracts. L-Arginine (Nitric Oxide) And Other Com Nutraceuticals L-Arginine is a nutraceutical that provides benefits specific to the production of nitric oxide and the improvement of blood flow. L-Arginine, like other nutraceuticals is a natural compound. The natural consequences of improved blood flow include less stress on the heart which in turn translates into the possible reversal of the symptoms of heart disease. Nutraceuticals also provide financial benefits as they are typically much less expensive than generic prescription drugs and are easier to get as, in most cases, they do not require a prescription (there are some nutraceuticals that require high doses to be effective, so high that it is illegal for companies to provide them without a prescription).

However, L-Arginine is not the only nutraceutical out there. There are many different nutraceuticals, most of which you may have heard of before and never realized. Nutraceuticals contain health values that go beyond the actual nutrients that they contain.

These natural compounds can prevent and even cause the reversal of the progression of some diseases.
