OstroVit Citrulline - a source of valuable compounds Citrulline is an organic chemical compound classified as a non-protein amino acid, which is a derivative of ornithine. It is a substance which, together with L-arginine and L-ornithine, participates in the urea cycle, also known as the Krebs cycle. Citrulline is considered an endogenous amino acid, which can be produced in the human body through natural synthesis. The name of the compound derives from the Latin word ‘citrullus’, meaning watermelon, as the first food source from which the amino acid was isolated was watermelon, which remains the primary dietary source of the compound. Furthermore, citrulline can also be found in melons, pumpkins and cucumbers. The OstroVit preparation uses citrulline malate, a form of the compound characterised by excellent bioavailability and ergogenic properties, which positively influences the quality of the preparation and the effectiveness of supplementation. The product has strong hygroscopic properties (it absorbs moisture readily). The formation of lumps or a uniform (compacted) consistency is not a sign of a loss of product properties. In such cases, the product should be broken up again.
