Key Supplements
- L-Arginine 3-6g/day (nitric oxide precursor—improves vasodilation, reduces attack frequency)
- L-Citrulline 3-6g/day (converts to arginine, sustained nitric oxide production)
- Magnesium 400-600mg (natural calcium channel blocker, reduces vasospasm)
- Niacin (Vitamin B3) 100-500mg 2-3x/day (causes flush—indicates vasodilation, improves circulation, start low dose)
- Ginkgo Biloba 120-240mg/day (improves peripheral circulation, reduces attack frequency)
- Omega-3 (EPA/DHA) 2-4g/day (improves endothelial function, reduces inflammation)
Key Lab Markers
- ANA (screen for autoimmune disease if secondary Raynaud's)
- ESR, hs-CRP (inflammation)
- Rheumatoid Factor, Anti-CCP (rheumatoid arthritis)
