Effects of Combined Grape Seed Extract and L-citrulline Supplementation on Hemodynamic Responses in Young Males

November 1, 2021 updated by: California Baptist University
This study was to examine the additive benefits with combined grape seed extract (GSE) and L-citrulline supplementation on hemodynamic responses to dynamic exercise, 11 young, healthy males were recruited for this study.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The investigators aimed the additive effects of combined grape seed extract (GSE) and L-citrulline supplementation on hemodynamic responses to dynamic exercise, 11 young, healthy males were recruited for this study. Effects of 7 days of combined GSE with L-citrulline supplementation on systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), cardiac output (CO), total vascular conductance (TVC), and oxygen consumption (O2) were examined at rest and during cycling exercise.
