"An amino acid that boosts nitric oxide, improving blood flow and endurance."

Definition

The full breakdown. What it is, why it matters, how to use it.

Citrulline malate increases nitric oxide production, which dilates blood vessels and improves nutrient delivery to working muscles. The malate component also buffers fatigue. Studies show 6–8g of citrulline malate 30–60 minutes before training improves rep performance and reduces soreness. It's one of the most evidence-backed pre-workout ingredients.

Question 01

Is citrulline the same as arginine?

Citrulline is more effective — it bypasses liver metabolism and converts to arginine in the kidneys, raising blood arginine higher than oral arginine itself.
