BioTech Citrulline Malate is a dietary supplement containing citrulline malate, that is a combination of a non-protein amino acid citrulline with malic acid.
Citrulline is a non-protein amino acids, an ornithine derivative that performs a number of important functions in the organism. Citrulline is an endogenous amino acid but its role is not the formation of proteins. The compound participates in the removal of excess lactic acid after increased exercise, and also mediates the production of nitric oxide (NO).
Citrulline is a powerful endogenous precursor of L-arginine, which in turn constitutes a substrate for nitric oxide synthase (NOS). NOS produces NO, which plays the role of a blood flow and pressure regulator by affecting vascular smooth muscles.
NO helps to dilate blood vessels in muscles, thanks to which it improves the inflow of nutrients to working muscle cells. When filled with blood, muscle cells increase their volume, which is referred to as a muscle pump. A visible increase in the size of muscle parts does not only create beneficial conditions for muscle development and regeneration, but there is also the psychological aspect – the phenomenon of a muscle pump has a positive effect on the mood and the motivation to keep working.
To sum up, BioTech Citrulline Malate is a dietary supplement designed mainly for active people, both when it comes to fans of strength, strength-endurance, and endurance disciplines.
