OstroVit Citrulline 360g

OstroVit Citrulline is a powdered dietary supplement whose main ingredient is citrulline malate. One serving, 6 g of powder, provides 5400 mg of citrulline malate, of which 3510 mg is L-citrulline. The package holds 360 g, which makes 60 servings. The manufacturer designed it for athletes and physically active people who want to add citrulline to their daily diet.

Citrulline is an amino acid the body uses to produce arginine. The malate form, citrulline malate, is a compound of citrulline and malic acid and is the form most often used in sports supplements. It is also the form found in pre-workout products, where citrulline is one of the best known ingredients.

The product contains no added sugar and the composition is short: citrulline malate with a flavouring and the sweetener sucralose. A scoop is included, so the right amount can be measured without weighing. The manufacturer has its products tested regularly in an independent accredited laboratory.

Active ingredient

• Citrulline malate – 5400 mg per serving. A compound of citrulline and malic acid, the most common citrulline form in sports supplements.
• L-citrulline – 3510 mg per serving, the part derived from citrulline malate.

Citrulline malate and L-citrulline

The label carries two numbers and they do not contradict each other. Citrulline malate is a compound in which citrulline is bound to malic acid, and 5400 mg is the amount of the whole compound per serving. Of that, 3510 mg is pure L-citrulline and the rest is the malate part. When comparing products from different manufacturers it is the second number that matters, because some label the compound and others the pure amino acid. That way you can see how much citrulline a serving really holds and the price per serving becomes comparable.
