L-citrulline, like L-arginine and L-ornithine, is a metabolite in the urea cycle and is involved in liver detoxification and vasodilation pathways.* It is produced in the urea cycle when carbamoyl phosphate is converted to citrulline in the ornithine carbamoyltransferase reaction. When endogenous supplies of ornithine carbamoyltransferase are insufficient, supplemental L-citrulline has been shown to support ammonia incorporation and liver detoxification of ammonia.* Free form amino acid, high purity, well tolerated. For additional support, one may include Item #70740 Magnesium Malate Forte.
Suggested use: As a dietary supplement, 1 teaspoon two times daily, or as directed by a healthcare practitioner. Contraindicated for individuals with kidney abnormalities, a hypersensitivity to L-citrulline and for children under 12 years of age.
