Don't know about the dangers of proline. Vanadium and selenium do have toxic levels. You have to stay away from excess. With Selenium it is recommended to stay below 100 mcg's per day. That is micrograms. 1000 mcg's per day is the very sharply defined highly toxic line. Vanadium is around 50 Mcg's. Arginine has a strange story. Until recently it was not known to have any adverse effects from multivarious tests. It is now being back away from. the last test of 153 subjects who were heart patients had some mortality in the test group. Small group and possibility of chance effect, but more possibly the dosage and type of cholesterol i.e. soft or hard on their arteries and their tendency towards spasm with dosage with this substance exclusively was not researched. I would not say nuts to Almonds or Walnuts. Al don mond Wal type of nuts I eat.
