WHAT IT IS / WHAT IT DOES

L-Citrulline 750 mg by NOW® provides a concentrated source of L-citrulline, a non-essential amino acid involved in several aspects of normal amino acid and protein metabolism.

Citrulline is an important intermediate in the urea cycle, a metabolic process involved in handling ammonia, a by-product of protein metabolism.

L-citrulline also serves as a precursor to L-arginine, another non-essential amino acid involved in protein synthesis.

Each vegetable capsule provides 750 mg of L-citrulline in a vegan-friendly formula.

L-CITRULLINE & PROTEIN METABOLISM

Citrulline is a non-essential amino acid and an important intermediate in the urea cycle.

The urea cycle works with amino acid metabolism to help the body process ammonia, which is produced as a by-product of protein metabolism.

For this reason, NOW® positions L-Citrulline 750 mg as nutritional support for protein metabolism and healthy protein balance.

PRECURSOR TO L-ARGININE

L-citrulline is a precursor to L-arginine, meaning it participates in metabolic pathways through which the body can produce arginine.

Arginine is itself a non-essential amino acid involved in normal physiological functions, including protein synthesis.
