Product Overview
L-Citrulline is a non-proteinogenic amino acid that participates in the urea cycle and supports endogenous arginine and nitric oxide synthesis. It is one of the most widely used actives in pre-workout and pump-oriented sports nutrition, supplied as a fine, free-flowing powder.
Key Features
- Standard sports-nutrition grade with consistent particle size
- Water-soluble, near-neutral taste for flavoured powder systems
- Suitable for pre-workout blends, capsules, and RTD beverages
- Also available as citrulline malate on request
- Full documentation available on request
How It Works
- Nitric-oxide pathway: citrulline is converted to arginine in the body, supporting endogenous nitric oxide production.
- Urea-cycle participation: supports normal amino-acid and ammonia metabolism.
- Sports positioning: the leading ‘pump’ and endurance-positioned amino acid in pre-workout formulas.
- Stacking: commonly combined with beta-alanine, creatine, and taurine.
Typical Applications
- Pre-workout and pump-oriented formulas
- Endurance and performance powders
