Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this project is to provide evidence that L-Citrulline (CIT) supplementation can improve vascular function in the fasted and acute hyperglycemia conditions in middle-aged and older women with metabolic syndrome.


Clinical Trial Description

Using a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, and parallel design, middle-aged and older women with metabolic syndrome will be randomized into receiving either CIT supplementation (10g/day) or placebo (Microcrystalline Cellulose) for 4 weeks. The first visit will be approximately 1hr and 30 minutes. The 2nd and 3rd visits will each be approximately 2hrs and 30 minutes, separated by 4 weeks in between each visit. During visits 2 and 3, vascular measurements will be assessed in the fasted state and 30, 60, and 90 minutes after acute glucose ingestion (75g). ;
