L-Citrulline is a non-protein amino acid that has the ability to form peptide bonds but is not involved in protein synthesis, and gets its name from the watermelon from which it is first extracted. Citrulline is produced from ornithine and aminomethyl phosphate in the urea cycle or as a by-product of arginine production catalyzed by nitric oxide synthase (NOS). Arginine is first oxidized to N-hydroxy-arginine, which is then oxidized to citrulline and released as nitric oxide. Citrulline can relax human blood vessels and is used to enhance male sexual function as well as treat sexual dysfunction. Maintains healthy lung function, improves mental clarity, and helps brain nerve cells to store and retrieve messages.Citrulline can be widely used in medicine, food, health care and other aspects, has good pharmacological effects.

Function and Application:

1. L-Citrulline can prevent and control prostate diseases. Citrulline is effective in the prevention and treatment of prostate diseases, including prostatitis, prostate swelling, prostate enlargement, prostate hyperplasia, and prostate cancer. Citrulline can be used as pharmaceutical raw materials or functional health food.

2. L Citrulline can make the human body produce nitrogen oxides, which is a very important substance for male sexual ability. Unlike sexual performance enhancing drugs, citrulline can be completely absorbed into the bloodstream, which is easier to produce nitrogen oxides. And as an all-natural product, citrulline not only has no side effects, but also enhances men's overall physical condition. In recent years, the patent announced a method of extracting citrulline from watermelon, which can be made into tablets and capsules. L-Citrulline powder is very popular.

3. Citrulline can anti-aging and enhance immunity. Research has found that citrulline has a strong antioxidant capacity, can remove hydroxyl, increase NO synthesis required arginine, can effectively protect DNA and PMN from oxidation reaction, can be used as anti-aging, improve immunity health care products, but also as a cosmetic cosmetics for women, with skin care, anti-wrinkles and spots anti-aging effect. For example, L citrulline malate has been a kind of amino acid salt health product with increasing sales volume in the international market. L Citrulline powder can be made into conventional solid preparations, such as tablets, powders, granules, capsules, etc., and liquid preparations, such as water or oily suspension or other liquid preparations such as syrup.
