Supplementation with L-citrulline increases the body's arginine levels, essential for nitric oxide production. Since nitric oxide plays a key role in vasodilation, mitochondrial function, calcium regulation, and glucose uptake, increased nitric oxide levels due to citrulline supplementation can potentially improve circulatory health, enhance muscle function, and reduce fatigue.
L-citrulline thus increases plasma arginine levels and improves the ammonia recycling process and nitric oxide metabolism. Consequently, citrulline may be useful in situations where nitric oxide is relevant, such as sports performance, vascular health.
In individuals, daily administration of 6 g of citrulline malate over a period of 15 days leads to a significant decrease in the sensation of fatigue, a notable increase in ATP production via oxidative pathways during exertion, as well as an enhanced improvement in post-exercise recovery [1].
Citrulline and malic acid, which are non-essential amino acids involved in the urea cycle, offer benefits by promoting this cycle when in excess. This accelerates the process of clearing ammonium from the blood and tissues, a major factor in fatigue.
The consumption of these ingredients results in a reduction of lactic acid accumulation and, consequently, a decrease in the sensation of fatigue.
Responsible for the tingling sensations, Beta-alanine will enhance your performance during high-intensity exercises lasting from 1 to 10 minutes.
Beta-alanine, when combined with histidine, forms carnosine which is then stored in the muscles. This carnosine plays a crucial role during intense exercises, neutralizing hydrogen ions (H+) produced during effort, thus maintaining an optimal muscle pH. By reducing muscle acidity, carnosine allows for prolonged effort and delays fatigue. This buffering capacity significantly improves endurance, particularly beneficial for short and high-intensity exercises, allowing muscles to work longer and more efficiently.
Glycerol promotes cellular hydration by drawing water into muscle cells. This results in a more pronounced sensation of muscle "pumping". This can not only increase the feeling of muscle congestion but also help maintain better vascularity during exercise.
Glycerol is hygroscopic, which means it has the ability to attract and retain water. When ingested, it helps increase water retention in the body.
By increasing plasma volume and improving hydration, glycerol helps maintain a better level of endurance. Athletes can exercise longer before experiencing signs of fatigue related to dehydration. Good hydration helps regulate body temperature, which is crucial for athletes practicing sports in hot environments or during intense training sessions.
Some studies suggest that glycerol may help reduce the perception of effort during exercise.
L-tyrosine is an amino acid precursor of dopamine, a neurotransmitter associated with motivation, concentration, and alertness. Experience better mental clarity and increased focus during your workouts.
L-Tyrosine is metabolized to produce catecholamines such as dopamine and norepinephrine. It is also used in the production of thyroid hormones.
L-Tyrosine has the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier. Once absorbed by brain cells, it is converted into dopamine through a series of enzymatic reactions. Dopamine can then be transformed into norepinephrine through the action of another enzyme.
In studies on strength training, Rhodiola Rosea increased strength and power when taken just before training. Supplementation with Rhodiola Rosea also decreased the rate of perceived exertion in several studies. Other studies have shown that Rhodiola Rosea can reduce fatigue, improve speed, and endurance.
It has been shown that supplementation with Rhodiola from 200 to 680 mg/day improves physical performance, while a dose between 100 and 576 mg/day can reduce mental fatigue. (The higher concentration of rosavin and salidroside in our Rhodiola, compared to that used in studies, ensures that you will achieve the mentioned results.)
Rhodiola rosea is known for its potential to help the body better manage stress. It helps reduce the perception of effort. You might therefore better tolerate the stress induced by intense exercise.
Electrolytes play a key role in transmitting electrical signals between nerve and muscle cells. By maintaining an adequate electrolyte balance, you optimize neuromuscular performance.
Moreover, electrolytes participate in numerous enzymatic reactions in the body, including those involved in energy production.
This also helps optimize your hydration level.
Caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant that can help increase mental alertness, improve concentration, and your energy level.
Caffeine has a chemical structure similar to that of adenosine, which allows it to bind to adenosine receptors without inhibitory activity. In other words, caffeine "blocks" these receptors and prevents adenosine from binding to them.
By blocking adenosine receptors, caffeine allows other neurotransmitters, such as dopamine and norepinephrine, to become more active. These neurotransmitters are associated with stimulation, alertness, and increased energy.
