L-Citrulline - Premium Quality Amino Acid for Sports and Health Applications
Product Overview
L-Citrulline (CAS No. 372-75-8) is a non-essential amino acid that plays a key role in nitric oxide production in the body. It is commonly used as a supplement for improving athletic performance, enhancing recovery, and promoting overall cardiovascular health. L-Citrulline is naturally found in foods like watermelon and is a popular ingredient in pre-workout formulas, energy drinks, and supplements aimed at boosting endurance and blood flow.
Key Features and Benefits
- Boosts Nitric Oxide Production: L-Citrulline increases the body's ability to produce nitric oxide, which helps to relax and expand blood vessels, improving blood flow and nutrient delivery to muscles during exercise.
- Enhances Exercise Performance: Studies show that L-Citrulline supplementation can reduce fatigue and improve endurance during high-intensity workouts.
- Supports Recovery: L-Citrulline helps reduce muscle soreness and accelerates post-workout recovery by flushing out ammonia and other waste products produced during exercise.
- Promotes Cardiovascular Health: It may contribute to heart health by supporting healthy blood pressure levels and improving circulation.
- Non-Stimulant: Unlike other workout supplements, L-Citrulline is a non-stimulant, meaning it won't cause jitters or crashes associated with caffeine-based products.
