Quick answer: Arginine and citrulline are amino acids the body uses to make nitric oxide, which relaxes blood vessels. Studies used grams a day; Mind Honey Pro provides 400 mg and 200 mg.
The nitric oxide cycle
Blood-vessel cells use the enzyme nitric oxide synthase to turn arginine into nitric oxide and citrulline. Nitric oxide relaxes the vessel wall. The kidneys can recycle citrulline back into arginine.
Why pair them?
A lot of swallowed arginine is broken down in the gut and liver before it reaches the blood. Citrulline avoids much of that and raises blood arginine more reliably.
What the research used
Blood pressure and exercise studies used roughly 3 to 9 g of arginine or 3 to 8 g of citrulline a day. PubMed: citrulline and blood pressure.
Safety
Because they lower blood pressure, they need care with nitrates, ED drugs and blood pressure medicine; see the interaction guide.
