Long-Term Combined Effects of Citrulline and Nitrate-Rich Beetroot Extract Supplementation on Recovery Status in Trained Male Triathletes: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial

[EN] Recovery is one of the main elements in achieving adequate athletic performance. Various supplements have been used for this purpose. Citrulline (CIT) and Nitrate-Rich Beetroot Extract (BR) are so-called nitric oxide precursor supplements that have shown an ergogenic effect on sports performanc...

Various supplements have been used for this purpose. Citrulline (CIT) and Nitrate-Rich Beetroot Extract (BR) are so-called nitric oxide precursor supplements that have shown an ergogenic effect on sports performance when used on a short-term, individual basis. These supplements appear to have other pathways that may promote athletic performance. The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of a co-supplementation for 9 weeks of 3 g/day of CIT plus 2.1 g/day of BR (300 mg/day of nitrates) on recovery by exercise-induced muscle damage markers (EIMD), anabolic/catabolic hormones and distance covered in the Cooper test (CP). Thirty-two male triathletes were randomized into 4 groups of 8 in this double-blind, placebo-controlled trial: placebo group, CIT group, BR group and CIT-BR group. Blood samples and CP were collected at baseline and after 9 weeks. The main conclusions were the combination of 3 g/day of CIT plus 2.1 g/day of BR (300 mg/day of NO3−) supplementation for 9 weeks did not present any benefit for EIMD. However, CIT-BR improved recovery status by preventing an increase in cortisol and showing an increase in Testosterone/Cortisol ratio and distance covered in the CP.SIMDPIFisioterapiaFacultad de Ciencias de la Salud2022info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttps://www.mdpi.com/2079-7737/11/1/75https://hdl.handle.net/10612/19443reponame:BULERIA.
