L-Citruline / L- ц итрулын, 120 capsules , is a dietary supplement from the American company Nutricost. The product formula includes L-citrulline in an optimal dose per capsule.

Citrulline is a non-essential amino acid that is produced in the liver and intestines. In the human body, L-citrulline is transformed into a different amino acid called L-arginine. Arginine is converted into a molecule called nitric oxide, which causes vasodilation of blood vessels by relaxing the smooth muscle cells that make up their walls. Vasodilation refers to the widening of arteries or veins and is associated with some important effects such as lowering arterial blood pressure and increasing blood flow.
An interesting fact is that consuming citrulline can increase arginine in the body more than consuming arginine itself.
Citrulline is not an amino acid used directly for protein synthesis, but it has been found to increase protein synthesis by stimulating an important signaling pathway involved in building muscle cells. Citrulline may also reduce the uptake of certain amino acids by the liver and prevent their breakdown.
Citrulline also has antioxidant properties.
Health benefits of taking L - citrulline :
Citrulline increases muscle blood flow during certain types of exercise in men. The dietary supplement stimulates strength and endurance during physical exercise and improves athletic performance.
Citrulline supplementation may lower blood pressure in older adults with hypertension, as well as those with prehypertension. The dietary supplement may lower systolic blood pressure and leads to a significant reduction in diastolic blood pressure at higher doses.
Citrulline consumption improves erections in men. L-citrulline increases L-arginine, which in turn helps increase nitric oxide production. This in turn promotes the relaxation of blood vessels, which leads to the passage of oxygen-rich blood through the arteries. This is why we say that L-arginine promotes good heart function, but it is also important for erectile function due to its blood flow-stimulating properties.
Taking citrulline may help relieve some symptoms caused by sickle cell anemia. The supplement may help reduce pain associated with this condition. L-citrulline acts as a vasodilator - it widens veins and arteries to help improve blood flow.
