The Claim
Four weeks of 10-gram daily L-citrulline supplementation increases forearm blood flow by 48 mL/min and vascular conductance by 41 mL/mmHg/min during handgrip exercise in hypertensive postmenopausal women, indicating enhanced peripheral arterial vasodilation during physical activity.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
Taking 10 grams of L-citrulline daily for four weeks increases blood flow and vessel dilation in the forearms of hypertensive postmenopausal women during handgrip exercise.

What the research says
1 studyThis study found that taking 10 grams of L-citrulline daily for four weeks helped women with high blood pressure get more blood flow to their forearms during hand exercises, making their blood vessels open up better when they move.
