L-Citrulline – Supporting Your Active Lifestyle Performance

 

extreme V, Inc. is working hard for you. To make sure your body gets exactly what it needs to be replenished, feel renewed and become revitalized, despite the stressful challenges you have in your life.

As a result, extreme V has developed CitruaidTM to support people with active lifestyles including athletes, business people, and ordinary people from the man running a marathon, to a busy mom on the go. Anyone who works hard or plays hard will appreciate Citruaid.

Citruaid™ provides a quick absorbing amino acid that promotes vascular dilation which improves oxygen and blood circulation throughout your body, resulting in peak performance and recovery. CitruaidTM assists the body in recovering from the build-up of lactic acid in muscle tissue while at the same time assisting the body in eliminating harmful ammonia.* Citruaid’s™ primary active ingredient is Citrullis™ (L-Citrulline), which is a 99%+ pure pharmaceutical-grade endurance recovery supplement.  

 

Citruaid™ supports and promotes: *

o    Active Lifestyle performance

o    Longer endurance and quicker muscle recovery

o    Cell and liver detoxification

o    Good health and immune system function

o    Vascular blood flow

o    Nitric oxide production
