The body uses arginine, a semi-essential amino acid, to make nitric oxide, which helps the blood vessels relax, aiding proper blood flow. However, some studies suggest using arginine aids treatment of angina, atherosclerosis, coronary artery disease, peripheral vascular disease and vascular headache.
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors help relax blood vessels. ACE inhibitors prevent an enzyme in your body from producing angiotensin II, a substance in your body that narrows your blood vessels and releases hormones that can raise your blood pressure. This narrowing can cause high blood pressure and force your heart to work harder.
