ALLMAX - Citrulline Malate 2:1, 300 g
MALAT CITRULLINE improves training intensity, endurance and recovery speed.
It fulfills these functions through 5 main functions:
- Increase the level of arginine in the blood (gram for gram to double the level of arginine).
- Increases endothelial nitric oxide (NO) levels, thereby improving vascular function and blood flow.
- Improves bicarbonate reabsorption by the kidneys, providing a powerful buffer against increased muscle acidification during intense training.
- Detoxifies tired muscle tissue by removing ammonia (a toxin that can increase by up to 3 times during intense training).
- Rapidly replenishes PCr (phospho-creatine) stores, PCr is a key energy storage that muscles use.
In addition to aiding in delivery and absorption, malate has a critical function in the TCA (or Krebs) cycle that produces energy in the mitochondria. Specific research has shown a 34% increase in oxidative ATP levels, a 20% increase in phosphocreatine recovery after exercise, and a significant reduction in the feeling of fatigue.
- Increases growth hormone.
- Optimizes BCAA utilization during workouts.
- Increases muscle protein and creatine synthesis.
- Improves recovery.
Why choose Citrulline Malate 2:1?
The fact is that most of the research on performance enhancement has been done on citrulline malate and not just citrulline itself. With malate, citrulline has improved the stability of the molecule and research has shown that malate may play a role in nitric oxide production. Malate plays a key role in the TCA (or tricyclic acid) cycle (also known as the Krebs cycle) which produces energy in the body. While it is true that citrulline is the true “engine” of the two and malate is more prevalent in the body, citrulline malate 2:1 offers the best of both worlds, stability and effectiveness.
