L Citrulline is an amino acid that converts to L-arginine and then nitric oxide in your bloodstream. Nitric oxide is involved in vasodilation (or simply put, dilation of the blood vessels); low levels have been associated with mental and physical fatigue and sexual disorders.
L-Citrulline also promotes healthier skin and immune functions, and is part of the Urea Cycle — it assists in converting ammonia to urea in your liver, which offers protection against damage and helps keep your liver functioning properly.
