Move over creatine! Swanson® L-Citrulline Malate Complex is the energizing combination that kicks in beyond the Krebs cycle. It's bursting onto the nutrition scene in a big way, helping people young and old break through the boundaries of physical health, energy and performance. L-Citrulline Malate is active in both the Krebs cycle and the urea cycle of metabolism, which means it promotes energy production while simultaneously helping to rid the body of fatigue-causing metabolic waste products.
L-Citrulline is a unique amino acid first isolated from watermelon and produced in the body from the amino acids ornithine and arginine. It's a key player in the urea cycle, which is the process responsible for eliminating the metabolic by-products of protein metabolism. These by-products, primarily ammonia and lactic acid, contribute to muscle fatigue. By helping to efficiently remove them, L-citrulline helps fend off fatigue for greater comfort and endurance. L-citrulline also acts as a precursor to nitric oxide, a compound that helps relax blood vessels to promote healthy circulation and ensure a steady supply of oxygen and nutrients throughout the body.
Malic acid is an organic compound made by all living organisms. It performs a vital function in cellular energy production as an intermediary in the Krebs cycle (also known as the citric-acid cycle), the metabolic pathway that produces ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the primary energy source for every cell in the body.
The dual-action effects on energy production and waste elimination make our L-Citrulline Malate Complex the perfect nutritional boost for physical comfort and endurance.

FAQ
- What are the benefits of taking Swanson L-Citrulline Malate Complex powder?
Swanson L-Citrulline Malate Complex provides 750 mg of L-citrulline malate per capsule to support healthy nitric oxide production, exercise performance and muscle function. L-citrulline is an amino acid that the body converts to L-arginine, helping support healthy blood flow, while malate (malic acid) plays a role in normal cellular energy production. Together, these ingredients help support endurance, workout performance and overall vitality as part of an active lifestyle. - How does L-citrulline malate poweder support nitric oxide production?
L-citrulline is converted by the body into L-arginine, which serves as a precursor for the production of nitric oxide (NO). Nitric oxide helps support the healthy relaxation of blood vessels, promoting healthy circulation and blood flow. Swanson L-Citrulline Malate Complex provides nutritional support for the body's natural nitric oxide pathway to complement exercise and cardiovascular wellness. - Why is malate combined with L-citrulline?
Malate (malic acid) is a naturally occurring compound involved in the body's normal energy-producing processes. When combined with L-citrulline, malate complements the formula by supporting cellular energy metabolism, while L-citrulline supports healthy nitric oxide production and circulation. This combination is popular among active individuals looking to support endurance, performance and post-exercise recovery. - How does L-citrulline malate support energy production?
L-Citrulline malate supports healthy energy production through the complementary actions of its two components. Malate participates in the body's normal energy-producing pathways, helping cells efficiently generate energy from nutrients. At the same time, L-citrulline supports healthy nitric oxide production and circulation, helping deliver oxygen and nutrients to working muscles during exercise. Swanson L-Citrulline Malate Complex provides 750 mg of L-citrulline malate per capsule to support energy metabolism and an active lifestyle. - Why choose Swanson L-Citrulline Malate Complex Powder instead of capsules?
Swanson L-Citrulline Malate Complex Powder offers the same nutritional support for healthy nitric oxide production, circulation, exercise performance and energy metabolism as capsules, with added flexibility and convenience. The powder format allows you to easily adjust your serving size to meet your individual fitness goals and can be mixed into water, smoothies or your favorite pre-workout beverage. It also makes it easier to consume the larger amounts of L-citrulline malate commonly used by active individuals without taking multiple capsules. For those who prefer a customizable serving and a convenient mix-and-drink option, the powder is an excellent choice for supporting an active lifestyle. - Is Swanson L-Citrulline Malate Complex powder suitable for special dietary needs?
Yes. Swanson L-Citrulline Malate Complex is non-GMO, making it a great choice for individuals who prefer supplements made without genetically modified ingredients. Each capsule provides 750 mg of L-citrulline malate to support healthy nitric oxide production, circulation, exercise performance and energy metabolism as part of an active lifestyle.
