So this citrulline has been the staple to my gym pumps. I look pretty crazy when the veins are all out. Even at a 230lb frame, this makes my veins stand out a LOT. But the one downside is this tastes absolutely horrible. It’s like the smell of fish and sour. It’s pretty gross. I take my supplements raw w a chaser of a splash of water. This makes my breath smell like complete a$$ even when I just got finished brushing my teeth. Don’t get me started on if I hadn’t brushed my teeth beforehand. I thought it was enough to reduce a star. However, I’m not that phased by it now and I try to get it down ASAP. It is just really sour. Other than that. It works!

As an endurance athlete, I look for supplements that help to break through plateaus and help me reach my highest physiological capacity. It acts as a lactic acid buffer, and helps to remove excess ammonia and waste from the body, translating to a noticeable increase in endurance and a feeling of well-being while exercising. Though almost every top-selling pre-workout supplement on the market contains this ingredient, it is shamefully under dosed, or listed among an assortment of several other ingredients as within a throw-it-all-in proprietary blend. I highly recommend taking 3g-6g of Citrulline Mallate for its intended effects (I take 3g before exercise and another 3g during). Nutricost's Citrulline allows for solo usage, or even as an addition to one of your favorite pre-workouts, for pennies on the dollar. You can tell its purity by its sour taste - which is very recognizable. Psychologically, I would describe its effects as both relaxing and helping you to feel much more coordinated. I still feel the familiar lactic acid "burn" during strenuous exercise, but it feels far more tolerable. When I "gas out", my muscles begin feeling considerably less relaxed. Citrulline helps me to overcome this somehow by allowing the muscles to keep relaxed, allowing me to push through the areas where I would otherwise have to stop. Because energy expenditure is not being wasted on muscle tension, physiologically it leaves you feeling as if operating much more efficiently. This assists with breathing - since the muscles surrounding the airway are significantly more relaxed - as well as helping your body to feel far more coordinated. All-in-all a wonderful product at an unbeatable price!Read full review

I was really surprised by how well citrulline works during my workouts. I'm not a heavy lifter but any means, but I can notice a big difference between taking it and not taking it. Muscle soreness is a thing of the past for me. will I buy citrulline again? YES! most likely will buy nutricost since I know it works and the price is a great value.

... or so I think. Will take a little longer than a few days to tell. Product is pretty sour tasting but easy to get used to. I'm 77 and I do think it helps with the workouts.

The pumps on this are unreal. You feel godly in the gym. Vascularity is on the next level. Only reason for 4 stars is that it did not have as many servings said on box.
