Effects of Quercetin and Citrulline on Nitric Oxide Metabolites and Antioxidant Biomarkers in Trained Cyclists
These findings suggest that combined and independent QCT and CIT supplementation did not significantly improve these biomarkers, suggesting that baseline training adaptations, supplementation timing, and individual variability may influence the efficacy of these compounds in enhancing exercise performance and oxidative stress markers. The ergogenic efficacy of QCT + CIT on antioxidant-related markers remains inconclusive.
