From phase three, an illustration of plasma arginine levels in humans following seven days of supplementation with L-citrulline and/or GSH. Results indicated that L-citrulline (CIT) and a combination of CIT + GSH produced significant increases in plasma arginine immediately after and 30 min post-exercise compared to groups supplemented with cellulose (PLC) and GSH. The symbol * indicates a significant increase compared to PLC and the symbol † indicates a significant increase compared to GSH (p < 0.05)
