Description & FAQ
L-Citrulline Performance Supplements
Our 1000mg L-Citrulline supplements are designed to improve athleticism, decrease blood pressure, and stimulate muscle growth.
Citrulline is a vitally important amino acid, which the body converts into arginine, an essential building block for the synthesis of proteins. Increased arginine levels may help you to better build muscle.
Arginine also increases the levels of nitric oxide (NO) in your system. Higher NO levels relax your blood vessels, which may lead to increased blood flow. Better blood flow increases the transmission of oxygen and nutrients to your muscles, optimising performance!
What are the disadvantages of Citrulline?
Citrulline is a naturally occurring amino acid used in your body’s everyday function. There are currently no reported negative side effects from regular usage of L-citrulline supplements.
How long does Citrulline take to kick in?
Users have different experiences when it comes to L-citrulline. Some notice effects quickly, while others experience them after a while. It has been reported to have beneficial effects in as little as 2 days.
Should you take Citrulline in the morning or night?
This depends on the user. It takes L-citrulline about an hour to increase NO levels, so many take it around 60 minutes before their workout. However, as it is believed to increase concentration, many prefer to take it first thing in the morning to help keep them focused throughout the day.
