hey guys, I have two qs re nitric oxide for those taking it

1. Do you have active viruses such as ebv and hhv6? I ask because the no2black has arginine, and I was under the impression that this was a Nono for these viruses..?

2.how do you take it?
-daily?
-only when you over exert yourself? If so, before exertion or after?

Thanks! :)
