Thoughts on l-citrulline?

I've been taking it for a year. It's been great and gives me the energy needed for workouts, especially on days that I'm cycling off of caffeine. The only side effect I've noticed is that I get extra horny afterwards and can't resist masturbation.

no, it just sort of stopped, im not sure why

I think it could have been a stress thing or a diet thing.. I'm not sure.

Iv only recently started to give a damn about nutrition. I want to maintain my 20's for at least another ten years.. time to supplement

That's the spirit user, never say die

I started taking 5g of 2:1 as part of a preworkout I mix up.

Pretty good so far and cheap.

BRAAAAAP

Comparable to minox 2% when topically. Large doses replicate oral minox. If you have the herpes virus don’t take or you’ll get ungodly break outs

no, i have a tendency towards chest infections from smoking too much weed, iv heard that that can be exasperated by anything that fucks with your NO levels, but otherwise, I'm pretty healthy physically.

il be taking oral 1-3gm per day.
iv ordered a 6 months supply.

Probably, I suggest stop smoking even if you’re not taking an NO increaser

yeah, I know I should... I just enjoy a smoke or two in the evenings after work to unwind.

vestiges of a much larger habit

Not in e-shop of my ussual supplements store. What gives ?

its less well established than arginine, which does the same thing but less efficiently.

Had to shop around a bit to find citrulline also

Wrong
It does it more efficiently and doesn't cause downregulation because it is a precursor to arginine
Citrulline is superior to arginine

cheers

Anyone got papers on safety and quality of the l-citrulline supplements? Food sources appear to be perfectly safe.
I eat a lot of watermelon every day once it's in season but I would like to try a supplement for when it's not in season.

Where are you reading this. Arginine is a precursor to Citrulline...

Not him but where are YOU reading this? I just looked it up and it clearly says citrulline is a precursor to arginine
All the sources say that citrulline, both l-citrulline and citrulline malate are better than arginine

BRAAAAPHOG

this.
re hair i think taking straight arginine can cause shedding

Here senpai

It appears that both pathways can occur.

but which is better?

Not sure honestly.

>If you have the herpes virus don’t take or you’ll get ungodly break outs
do you get sexually aroused by spreading fake information?

not him, but in a sense thats true

It mad my testicles ascend into my body cavity and my penis literally fall off dropping out of my running shorts and down a street gutter ultimately becoming lost at sea.

Noa do wat?

Plox halp.

Arginine has shown to increase breakouts, Lysine decreases it. It’s a fact. You could try stacking them

You woman now. Accept it.

That's not a braphog you idiot.

fix your squatting form. in my experience thats usually the problem

C I T R U L L I N E

Its so weird looking up close but if you've had dogs, you know its feeling against your leg or your face is the most comforting thing ever

Goddamn do I miss my pupper

faggot

why

Look it up lazy cunt

there is a library of contradictory information, that i cant hope to be able to understand. im no chemist, iv been looking into it for weeks.

Id really appreciates it if someone could condense it for me.

What are the legit positives and negatives of citrulline

Same as for raw onions.
Slight increase in test, notable decrease in bitch hormones, but strangely it comes with a small chance of ED.

im sorry user

> but strangely it comes with a small chance of ED.
Wat.
It combats ED.

it does?

"Black genes" finally explained

>It combats ED.
I don't know man, my friend was having 5 scoops a day instead of whey and he said he couldn't get it up anymore.

you're supposed to take 5g a day

difference between l-citrulline and citrulline malate?

>tfw my mom wasn't obsessed with what she ate while I was in her womb
seriously fuck people who think having kids is something you just do, we live in a abundantly scientific world, have been for many years now, and people still don't put research into every little thing they do. You can call it autism, I call it striving for perfection, I lift with perfection, I eat with perfection, I study and socialise with perfection. Fuck this comformist as shit and complacent for no reason society, I swear now to you all I will attain the status of a God on my own behalf, regardless of the shitty chances I might've been given on birth/throughout growth. I'm gonna fucking make it

youre pretty fucking lame you know

according to what iv read.
malate increases absorption, but due to its presence you need to take .76 more to be ingesting the same amount of citrulline.

id go with whatever is cheaper

>that booger

L-citrulline makes me really vascular and my dick get extra hard. It’s the only supp I still take besides fish oil.

shedding?

Bump

we're all going to die

what's the best supp version of L-citrulline? Everything I look up seems to be underdosed out the ass

Does it make you shed?
Suggests otherwise

Who's that?

Get better taste

No. It’s increases NO

I liked the pictures ITT, who is she?

How do you take it? How do you mask the taste of the powder?

is there really a need to mask it

lol

Yes there is.

Your reading comprehension is mad retarded dudeio. He was saying citrulline is better than arginine

No there really isn't. It tastes like strong lemon juice in water

NO supps combat ED. they increase oxygenation and bloodflow to the dick root. cit metabolizes into arg.

>effects
I take a tablet a half an hour before I work out, gives me a sicc pump. Sometimes I take it before I go out to give me some vascularity if i've been sitting on my ass all day
>side effects
Slightly lightheaded if I take way too much for my body (3 tablets), but nothing other than that.

Low test.

bcaa's worth taking also?

Honestly didn't feel anything. Felt like I got ripped off. Maybe I should have taken more but that shits expensive

Ah sorry to hear. Try vitamin d3 and zinc to raise it naturally maybe?

le ebin gomback :DDDD

I didnt mean it as a comeback, genuine advice if their test is low

>Thoughts on l-citrulline?
Worth while. I've made it a staple of my pre-workout stack
>Effects of?
Increases vasodilation ergo bigger pump and better vascularity
>Side effects of?
Erections that can be used for ice sculpting.
Really no downsides.

Bump

should it be taken with l-arginine? necessary/beneficial to combine?

Attached: 1480196336514.jpg (638x600, 39K)

also to add to this what kind of dose/mg should i look for?

Good shit. Part of the perfect preworkout:
- 5g beta alanine
- 8g citrulline
- 5g leucine
- 5g creatine
- 300mg caffeine
- 600mg theanine
- 50mg dmaa

>have HSV-1
>take 9g Citruline daily broken up into 3 3g doses
>no increase in breakout frequency or severity

I do eat lysine rich foods on the daily though, so I don't know.

I smoke weed erryday bro, have been for about a decade, I also smoke a pack of deathsticks a day. Barely ever get sick, like max once per year. Look into a multi vit with an immunity complex, or watch your micronutrients if you have the energy for that.
