Quick answer: Melonex lists L-citrulline DL-malate, L-arginine alpha-ketoglutarate and L-arginine HCl. The website calls the amounts optimal but does not publish them, so the Supplement Facts on your bottle are the only reliable source.
What is listed
- L-citrulline DL-malate
- L-arginine alpha-ketoglutarate (AKG)
- L-arginine hydrochloride (HCl)
What is missing
Every amount, the capsule size and the other ingredients, such as the capsule shell and fillers.
Why the amounts matter
Blood pressure studies used several grams of arginine or citrulline a day. A capsule usually holds about a gram or less, so one or two capsules are likely well below study doses.
How to read your label
- Find the serving size (one or two capsules).
- Add up the mg of each amino acid.
- Compare with the gram amounts used in studies.
- Read the Other Ingredients line.
