Watermelons, not Viagra

Scientists discovered that watermelon has an effect similar to well-known drug Viagra. The positive effect is attributed to an ingredient citrulline found in watermelons.

I wonder if watermelon sales will sky-rocket now?

Does increasing arginine have any significant effect? If so why not just take arginine as a supplement? What dose of arginine supplement or watermellon would have an effect similiar to drugs like viagra?

Does MS related male-E.D. begin roughly at diagnosis time, or is the E.D. problem present before diagnosis? If before diagnosis how far before? I'm wondering if there is a clear change at diagnosis time (give or take) or if it is an insidious accumulation of symptoms.
