citruline malate

[ford78]

I heard citruline malate improves blood flow. Does that mean it improves recovery? Is it worth taking?

you want to improve recovery? it won't be a supplement that helps you, it will be better sleep and working out more efficiently

No it doesn't.

Proper diet and sleep are the route to recovery.

It can help with pumps but that's about it. Honestly if you are training intensely you will get good pumps anyways.

Citrulline malate is an amino acid that will increase nitric oxide levels in the body. 100%, it will increase blood flow but enough to actually do much...that's another topic in itself.

For recovery, I doubt you will actually notice a difference in taking it.

Look into ostarine. Ostarine was developed to improve healing in people with muscle wasting diseases like HIV and cancer -> https://www.evolutionary.org/ostarine-mk-2866
