As a supplement, L-Citrulline is usually described in the context of the supplement that it compliments, L-Arginine. As a supplement the role of L-Citrulline is relatively simple. L-Citrulline is meant to be converted into L-Arginine by the body. The addition of L-Citrulline allows for there to be a greater amount of unabsorbed L-Arginine once this amino acid passes through the digestive system. L-Citrulline and L-Arginine work together to create synergy. If you are planning on using an L-Citrulline supplement in your diet, you should also be taking an L-Arginine supplement in order to obtain the desired results.
Main Function:
1. L-citrulline is a naturally occurring amino acid, it is found in some foods like watermelons and is also
produced naturally by the body.
2. L-citrulline is used for Alzheimer's disease, dementia, fatigue, muscle weakness, erectile dysfunction, high blood pressure, and diabetes.
3. L-citrulline is used for heart disease, body building, increasing energy, and for improving athletic performance.
Main Application:
Dosage
The recommended daily supplemental dose of L-Citrulline is 200-1000 mg once a day before bed (at the same time of the day when you ought to be taking your L-Arginine supplement). L-Citrulline supplements may be difficult to find on their own as they are most likely going to be combined with L-Arginine or included as a part of a collection of supplements meant to do a number of specific things. This is why the dosage amount can vary so greatly. The lowest recommended daily dose is the 200 mg while the most that you will want to take in a 24 hour period should not exceed 1000 mg. You will need to keep this in mind especially if thus supplement is combined with other supplements that are taken in high doses or more than once throughout the day.
