L-Citrulline DL-Malate Side Effects
As L-Citrulline DL-Malate is widely known as safe, there is no limit on dosage of intake. However, we still recommend consumers to consult professionals before using large quantity of L-Citrulline DL-Malate for long period.
* ADI: Acceptable Daily Intake
* MTDI: maximum tolerable daily intake
* Data source: JECFA Database of WHO
Special Groups Precaution
Special groups refer to newborns, children, pregnant and any other applicable vulnerable groups.
There is no evidence that L-Citrulline DL-Malate could have any negative effects on these vulnerable groups. It should be safe to use L-Citrulline DL-Malate in food for newborns and pregnant. However, we still recommend consumers to consult professionals before using large quantity of L-Citrulline DL-Malate for long period in food for newborns or pregnant.
GRAS Affirmation: Yes
Generally recognized as safe(GRAS) is a FDA designation that a specific substance or ingredient is generally considered safe by experts, and so is exempted from the usual Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) food additive tolerance requirements. L-Citrulline DL-Malate is considered safe by FDA according to existing data and granted GRAS status.
