Cold Feet? Topical Warming Creams May Help
Cold weather means more time outside with a chance of
frostbite or cold weather injury to the feet. Topically applied
L-Arginine cream can warm the hands and feet, making outdoor activites
much more comfortable.
(PRWEB) January 2, 2006 -- Cold weather injuries are a
common occurrence this time of year. Extended exposure to cold can cause
temporary and sometimes permanent injury to the toes and feet.
Frostbite, immersion foot and frost nip are conditions that need to be
taken seriously. The past several winters, many chronic sufferers of
cold feet have been discovering L-Arginine based creams that can
actually warm the feet and hands.
Dr. Jeffrey Oster, medical director of Myfootshop.com described the use
of Warm Cream, an L-arginine cream. "If applied prior to going outside,
L-Arginine creams can significantly change how a person feels about
winter. Winter is simply more enjoyable when you're warm."
The effectiveness of L-Arginine is brought about through the combination
of two breakthrough discoveries. The first discovery, which won the 1998
Nobel Prize in Medicine, defines how local blood flow is controlled by
the substance nitric oxide. L-Arginine is the natural precursor to
nitric oxide. The second discovery, which is the subject of issued and
pending patents, is a method of getting L-Arginine across the skin and
into the tissue.
