Has anyone any experience of taking this amino acid for fatigue and endurance? I've heard pretty good things about it and I'm interested to hear your thoughts please.

🤔 I haven’t actually tried this myself. But, I always look at possible side effects when considering anything new, and whether there might be adverse interaction with current medication.

L-citrulline is POSSIBLY SAFE when used orally and appropriately by adults. It is POSSIBLY SAFE when used orally and intravenously in children. Although side effects are rare, some people have reported stomach upset, heartburn, cough, changes in urination, and swelling when taking L-citrulline by mouth.
