Citrulline is one of the three amino acids of the urea cycle. The intake of citrulline increases the plasma level of arginine in the blood and thus promotes nitric oxide metabolism. This allows the blood flow to increase significantly, resulting primarily in an incredible pump during training, improved regeneration and a better supply of nutrients to the muscles. Citrulline Malate from GN Laboratories brings you all the benefits of the amino acid - because in the end only results count

What is Citrulline Malate and how can Citrulline Malate maximize the pump?

Citrulline Malate is one of the three amino acids of the urea cycle that occurs naturally in the human body. In weight training and bodybuilding, citrulline is best known for its blood flow-enhancing properties, which can dramatically increase the pump effect during exercise (1). However, citrulline also has a variety of other benefits that can potentially benefit any athlete to improve recovery and performance (2). Citrulline acts by acting as a substrate for the arginine-nitric oxide synthase-nitric oxide pathway while stimulating the production of the enzyme nitric oxide synthase (3). Nitric oxide, as a messenger, elicits relaxation of vascular smooth muscle tissue. This, in turn, resulted in dilatation of the veins and thus potentially maximized blood flow in one study (4). According to scientific studies, a maximally increased blood supply to the muscles is synonymous with a maximum supply of oxygen. It also means a maximum supply of energy-providing nutrients and the body's own anabolic hormones. At the same time, the maximally increased blood flow also improves the removal of toxic metabolic products that are inevitably produced during intensive training sessions (5). This is important because as the amount of these toxic waste products increases, the contractility of the muscles continues to decrease (6). As an added bonus, nitric oxide improves muscle contractile function while increasing glucose uptake into the muscles (7). ATP production, and thus energy supply during exercise, is another factor that can benefit from citrulline ingestion (8). This effect is particularly important because citrulline also helps to reduce the toxic ammonia produced during exercise (9).

Studies have shown that all of these factors can lead to more repetitions per set or more training sets per session (1,4,5). As a result, citrulline supplementation was shown in one study to lead to improved growth stimulus during training (2,4).

How can citrulline malate accelerate recovery and maximize muscle growth?

After training, improved blood circulation inevitably results in a better supply of the muscles. Oxygen, nutrients and the body's own anabolic hormones reach the muscle cells more quickly due to an increased blood supply. This in turn results in faster and better regeneration (1). In addition, citrulline can reduce the occurrence of muscle soreness after training (10) , which allows a new growth stimulus to be set more quickly. Citrulline can also potentially support muscle growth via several independent effects. It increases muscle protein synthesis rates, allowing more muscle protein and therefore more muscle mass to be built in subjects of various studies (2,4). Also, the increase in muscle volume due to improved blood flow, possessed direct muscle building increasing effects in test subjects (8). Last but not least, the significantly stimulated blood flow through citrulline results in a stretching of the fascia. Scientific studies have shown that such repeated stretching of the fascia has direct anabolic, muscle-building effects (8).

Anyone who reads NanoPure® on a product can be sure that there are no heavy metals, no extenders and no contaminants in their product. NanoPure® stands for pure quality.

In conclusion, it can be said that citrulline shines through a whole range of benefits that can bring an intake with it. The positive effects clearly speak for themselves, which is why the question should not be why citrulline should be supplemented, but rather why someone should not do it? We can think of neither studies nor meaningful reasons for this. Citrulline Malate from GN Laboratories - because in the end only results count.
