My father's blood lipid metabolism is abnormal. He usually supplements a lot of protein. Will protein affect blood lipid metabolism?

    Both protein configuration and amino acid composition can affect blood lipid metabolism. L-arginine is a raw material for synthesis of nitric oxide (NO) in the body, supplementing with a sufficient amount of L-arginine can counteract the decrease of endothelial NO activity caused by hypercholesterolemia.
