Description & FAQ
Citrulline Malate Performance Supplements
Our 1000mg Citrulline Malate supplement is designed to optimise performance, stimulate muscle growth, and combat fatigue. It is a powerful compound of two beneficial, ergogenic substances.
The first is L-citrulline. This is an important amino acid which increases levels of arginine and nitric oxide in the blood. Arginine is used to build proteins, while nitric oxide improves blood flow, enhancing your performance.
Malate is the second. It’s essential in the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA), which is responsible for making two-thirds of the body’s energy. This process burns fats and carbohydrates, helping you lose weight and maintain lean muscle.
Does Citrulline Malate have any side effects?
Citrulline malate is a widely used supplement favoured by many gym-goers and athletes. Many studies have been conducted into the compound, but no evidence has been discovered to suggest that acute dosage causes any negative side effects.
Why take Citrulline Malate instead of arginine?
Citrulline Malate supplements are beneficial because they allow your body to increase arginine levels. This probably has you thinking – “Why not just take arginine?” Well, it’s because citrulline has a much longer half-life, meaning it can stay in the body for longer.
Does Citrulline Malate increase growth hormones?
Scientists have found that citrulline malate supplementation increases levels of growth hormone after exercise. As the name suggests, growth hormone influences the development of bones and muscles, meaning increasing levels could help you build more muscle.
The Science
Research has suggested that Citrulline Malate usage can help to increase energy levels, slow feelings of exhaustion, and enhance athletic performance.
