Is it something to do with driving the bacteria out of cells?

Quoting a previous post by CD3674: "L-arginine increases the levels of nitric oxide in the blood vessels which helps to correct the depletion caused by Babs/Bart and make the blood vessels inhospitable to these organisms."

Interesting how is this beneficial to bartonella?

Actually, L-Arginine will cause the blood vessels to dilate, which helps with circulatory flow. Diminished circulatory flow with Lyme disease/Co-infections is common and using botanicals to increase blow flow, as well as to thinning the blow (many of what's known as 'thick blood' with these pathogens) can be helpful.

I'm using l-arginine and EGCG under the hypothesis that they make it harder for bart/babs to grow in the circulatory system. Whether it works or not I can't say, but so far it doesn't seem like it's hurting. Conceptually I like the idea of making it harder for pathogen growth, that way the antimicrobials can focus at whittling away the main stock of what is left. I'm also trying to drink a decent amount of green tea, I've noticed some minor herxing with that (prob related to babesia).
