Citrulline

Citrulline Supplements: Information

Citrulline is a non-essential amino acid that serves two primary purposes. Citrulline, along with arginine and ornithine helps to rid the body of ammonia, a toxic byproduct of protein metabolism. Citrulline also provides a readily available substrate for arginine production, which in turn, can be used for the production of Nitric Oxide (NO). NO plays a fundamental role in vascular function and blood flow.

Citrulline's Health Benefits

Citrulline supplements are used to support the detoxification of ammonia and to enhance production of NO production and benefit the cardiovascular system.1
