Citrulline
By: Articles by a Naturopathic Doctor (N.D.)
Boosting athletic performance and increasing circulation are just some of the effects L-Citrulline can have in the body…
The alpha amino acid citrulline was first extracted from watermelon, where it inherited its name. It is one of the key stepping-stones in the urea cycle in humans, which is the pathway by which ammonia is converted into uric acid and released in the urine. The body also naturally produces citrulline from arginine as a byproduct of nitric oxide synthase (NOS).
Citrulline in the Body
A number of proteins in the body contain citrulline, including those used in the myelin coating on our nerves, and some that wrap our DNA into tight packages in our cells. Interestingly, many people with Rheumatoid Arthritis will actually have high levels of anti-citrulline antibodies, which may reflect immune attack upon their own DNA.
Citrulline and L-arginine
Our body naturally converts L-citrulline to L-Arginine, which can then be converted to Nitric Oxide (NO2). Arginine directly promotes growth of all body tissues, and can also help to boost immune function. NO2 acts to dilate blood vessels and increases circulation in the body. These actions can combine to significantly improve athletic performance and body building outcomes. For more information, please see our Arginine article. There is some preliminary evidence that supplementation with citrulline or arginine may help to benefit people suffering from sickle cell anemia. It may also help benefit High Blood Pressure as well, by redirecting blood to the extremities.
Athletic Enhancement
When combined with Malic Acid, citrulline malate results. Supplementation with this substance has been shown to improve athletic performance and reduce muscle fatigue with prolonged exercise. Whether this is due to the activity of the supplement or its breakdown products: arginine and NO2 has not yet been established.
How can I take Citrulline?
This supplement is often found in combination supplements for athletic performance in powder form. It can also be found alone in capsules as L-citrulline for more direct supplementation. The recommended dosage has not yet been established, although it is commonly recommended at between 1500 and 3000mg daily. Follow the manufacturer’s directions for dosage of each individual product.
