Brief Note on Purines

I see that some oral purine formulations are, in fact, not enteric-coated (in reference to this, for example: http://hardcorephysiologyfun.blogspot.com/2009/01/details-on-nucleotides-bioavailability.html), and here are some examples [(http://www.google.com/products?q=adenosine+triphosphate+disodium+dissolve+OR+melt&hl=en&show=dd)]. That search didn't turn up all of the suppliers of the individual products, and doing a search on an individual product gives a wider range of suppliers/vendors for the specific product. Another product contains guanosine, also, and I referred to a link, in relation to that, in my last posting. I have no financial interest in any company or in any of this type of thing. Don't shoot the messenger. In the absence of some sort of systematic analysis or attention, these types of things have the potential to remain locked-away in obscurity or shrouded in confusion and mystery for years upon years.

Oral purines have, in my opinion, the potential to lower the peripheral vascular resistance (produce vasodilation, essentially) and conceivably decrease platelet aggregation, and there could be some extra need for caution in people who have low blood pressure or blood vessel diseases or who are taking antihypertensive medications for high blood pressure (or in people who are taking drugs to decrease platelet aggregation, such as aspirin, for example). A person should always check with his or her doctor before taking any supplement.
