What is Citrulline Malate?
Citrulline Malate is a combination of the organic compound malate salt and amino acid Citrulline. This combination compound offers athletes a unique opportunity to fight muscle fatigue and improve sports performance whilst speeding up and enhancing msucle and energy recovery post intense exercise.

What Are The Benefits Of Citrulline Supplementation?
Citrulline will assist you in training harder and longer during intense excerise sessions in a similar manner to the energy production of creatine, without any side effects of cramping, bloating or water retention. There has also been some recent suggestions in research studies that Citrulline is even more effective than arginine for enhancing overall plasma arginine levels. The reason for this is Citrulline's effects on endogenous arginine synthesis. This suggests that Citrulline may indeed by more effective at nitric oxide production than supplementing with arginine and AAKG supplements. Citrulline has also been shown to be highly effective at growth hormone production, insulin and creatine production. In studies of Citrulline Malate supplementation in he 6gram dose range, that it is highly effective at increasing ATP production by 30%, significantly reducing muscle fatigue and a dramatic increase in phosphocreatine levels post exercise.

How Does It Work?
Citrulline acts to remove endotoxins such as lactic acid build up and ammonia, by acting as an intermediary in the Urea Cycle. These endotoxins impair overall exercise performance and are are produced by the body in response to intense physical exercise, protein metabolism and catabolic states.

Citrulline supplementation rapidly speeds up the removal of these waste products - lactic acid and ammonia from your working muscles, resulting in a better performance from the working muscle tissue - letting you train harder and recover musch faster with each and every workout.

Usage Indications
Citrulline Malate is effective for use by anyone taking part in high intensity resistance and endurance exercise. This would include strength athletes, bodybuilders, runners and sprinters and cyclists to name but a few people who will benefit from Citrulline supplementation.

For best results supplement with between 3 and 6 grams of Citrulline 35 minutes prior to intense exercise. Recent research has led to the production of a new rapidly absorbed form of Citrulline known as Citrulline Ethyl Ester HCL. This new form of Citrulline promises superior uptake, reducing wastage and giving you better results from lower doses. An effective way to use Citrulline Ethyl Ester HCL would be to combine it with a lower dose of Citrulline Malate. For example, 1.5 grams of Citrulline Malate combined with 1.5 grams of Citrulline Ethyl Ester HCL (providing a total of 3 grams of Citrulline) can be mixed with water and consumed 30-45 minutes before exercise.

What Can I Stack Citrulline With For Better Results?
Recent anecdotal reports from the real world of bodybuilding and strength athletes suggest that stacking Citrulline with Beta Alanine and L-Histidine would be of great benefit to the user. Both of these substances work well to increase carnosine levels within the muscles - resulting in a similar improved performance and increased Nitric Oxide production.
