Experiencing Severe Headaches After Taking L-Citrulline Before Workout

[johnpatmos211503]

So, I've been throwing back about 5 grams of L-Citrulline before my workouts, and boom – massive headaches every time! Anyone else in the same boat or got any ideas why this is happening? Help a gym buddy out with your thoughts and experiences!

@johnpatmos211503 I take citrulline too(7gm a day). I used to have a similar throbbing headache whenever I pushed too hard on my first 1 or 2 sets without proper warmup especially with very High intensity.
What helped me was warming up to my working set gradually.

@vjannette Thank a lot, which supplement brand you use? mine is asitis.

@johnpatmos211503 Haha same. I use asitis citrulline and beet root powder. Insane pumps!

 

[johnpatmos211503]

@vjannette lmao… does yours also taste like shit if you drink it with water. also which beetroot powder you use?

 

[vjannette]

@johnpatmos211503 Yeah the taste sucks man. I mix citrulline, beetroot and whey and have it as a pre workout meal. The beetroot is from asitis as well.
