So, for todays L-Arginine review we’re going to go ahead and review Niteworks by Herbalife. This product is only sold in one size which is the 5.3 oz. jar and are less expensive if you buy them in a 2-jar pack. If you can afford this product it may be the L-Arginine product for you. We’ll talk about that more in the breakdown.
Value – 1.0
Niteworks only comes in one size which is a 5.3 ounce jar. We did find that you can purchase the 5.3 ounce jar of Niteworks at a lower cost per jar in a 2-jar pack. Before we get to the best price for this product we would like to prefice it by stating that Niteworks by Herbalife is sold exclusively through their Independent Distributors and are NOT available in stores. Having said that, we did find that you could get ther product online for as low as $5.35 per ounce but found many reviews that said that the product had expired and in some cases went as far as saying that it was a fake product. So we used the price that is used by the distributors. For two, 5.3 ounce jars of Niteworks the price is $89.95 for 10.6 ounces which has their best value at a wopping $8.49 per ounce. At this price per ounce, Niteworks is by far the highest price of all the L-Arginine products we have reviewed. Therefore, we have assigned it a grade point of 1.0 for Value.
Taste/Flavor – 3.1
Again, this portion of the grade is very subjective so feel free to disagree by letting us know your opinion. Niteworks comes in only one flavor which is a lemon-flavored mix. In our opinion the lemon-flavored mix wasn’t that bad. We would love to see some other flavors other than just lemon. In our conversation, we did compare the lemon flavor to your candy drawer or candy jar at your home, it always seemed like the two colors of candy left in the candy drawer are yellow and green which are usually lemon-flavored and lime-flavored. We did try to put it into a breakfast shake but couldnt find a combination that tasted good with the lemon flavor. Again, Herbalife may want to add more flavors to their L-Arginine product. After deducting a few grade points for lack of variety we came up with a grade point of 3.1 on Taste/Flavor.
Nutrition – 2.4
Last but definatly not least the nutritional component. Niteworks does not have quite the nutritional value that some of the other L-Arginine products. In addition to the L-arginine, L-citrulline Niteworks only had Vitamine C, Vitamin B12 and Folate (Folic Acid). considering all the nutritional value Niteworks contained we came up with a grade of 2.4 for the nutritional grade.
Extra Credit Points or Additional Grade Point Deductions
In our opinion, Niteworks has earned 0.1 grade point deduction for the following: We found that using Independant Distributors it not the most convienient way to purchase their L-Arginine product. We had to find the product on thier website and then click on the "Odrer from a Distributor" link which took us to a page where we had to fill out a form and agree to have a Herbalife Distributor contact us. A deduction of 0.1 grade points is not a huge deduction but we felt that it was warranted because of the trouble to order the product.
Nitworks, like all other Herbalife products are not good. Overpriced and contain too many artificial ingredients. Sugar for one is terrible and the artificial flavors are another nuisance.
my son is struggling in school and I want to know what product would help him improve in school
Cathy,
I have not heard of L-Arginine helping improve a child’s performance in school. L-Arginine helps improve blood circulation.
NiteWorks is not a good product. It has the wrong type of arginine and too many synthetic flavors and ingredients. Herbalife is famous for low quality MLM driven sales products and Louis Ignarro was not involved in the formulation of this product.
I have Myelody splastik syndrome – Refractory Anemia with ringed sideroblast and I am looking for some product to raise my hamoglobin, white cells, redcells and so forth.
Yikes…I’m not to familiar with those ailments. L-Arginine helps improve blood circulation and has been shown to lower blood pressure. I’m afraid I may not be much help.
I was wondering if nite works is good for diabetes for your feet when you have tingle feeling in your feet
All L-Arginine products are great for improving the blood circulation in your body. And I think that the tingling sensation in your feet is caused by poor circulation so it would be worth a try to see if it would improve your condition. Any of the L-Arginine product listed would do well as they all contain L-Arginine in various amounts and some contain additional vitamins and minerals that also promote good health.
Good luck, and let us know how it works for you.
