L-Citrulline DL-Malate 2:1 Powder | 500 g | German Elite Nutrition

L-Citrulline DL-Malate 2:1 by German Elite Nutrition

Are you looking for L-citrulline as a pure powder? German Elite Nutrition's L-Citrulline DL-Malate 2:1 is a pure citrulline powder in a fixed ratio. Each 5-gram serving provides 5000 mg of L-citrulline DL-malate, of which approximately 3350 mg is pure L-citrulline. A 500-gram tub is enough for about one hundred servings. The powder is popular with strength athletes and fitness enthusiasts who prefer working with a pure powder instead of a ready-made mix.

What L-citrulline DL-malate is

L-citrulline is an amino acid that your body can also produce itself and that occurs naturally in watermelon. In supplement form, citrulline is often bound to malate, a salt of malic acid. That combination is called citrulline malate and is highly soluble. In the body, citrulline can be converted into the amino acid arginine. There are currently no approved European health claims for L-citrulline and malate. Therefore, we only describe the substances as an ingredient. In sports nutrition, citrulline is often combined with arginine, beta-alanine, or taurine.

What the 2:1 ratio means

The 2:1 designation refers to the ratio between citrulline and malate: two parts citrulline to one part malate, or approximately 67 percent citrulline and 33 percent malate. This is a common ratio in sports nutrition and the reason that each 5-gram serving provides approximately 3350 mg of pure citrulline. The malate, derived from malic acid, provides the fresh, slightly tart taste of citrulline malate. Because the ratio is fixed, you know exactly what you are getting with every scoop. Those who mix their own pre-workout have a stable base with this powder that always has the same composition.

Flavorless, pure, and soluble

The tub contains exclusively L-citrulline DL-malate 2:1. No colorings, no sweeteners, no fillers, and no preservatives. The powder is flavorless, although you can taste a slightly fresh note due to the malate, and it dissolves easily in water, a shake, or a pre-workout drink. That purity is exactly why many athletes choose a pure powder: you know exactly what you are getting and you are not paying for additives you do not want. The citrulline powder is made through a plant-based production process and is therefore vegan, gluten-free, and lactose-free. With the included measuring scoop, you can accurately measure each 5-gram serving, so you do not have to guess with a regular spoon.

How athletes use this citrulline powder

Most users take a 5-gram serving per day, dissolved in about 300 ml of water or another beverage of choice, such as juice or a shake. Many strength athletes plan that serving around their workout, although there is no fixed time. Because it is a pure powder, L-citrulline is easy to combine with other pure amino acids, such as arginine, beta-alanine, or taurine. Take the powder as a supplement alongside a varied diet and stick to the indicated serving of 5 grams per day. A 500-gram tub lasts well over three months with one serving per day, making this a practical choice for those who want to use citrulline continuously for a longer period without having to reorder every time.

In short: this is pure L-citrulline DL-malate in a 2:1 ratio, as a flavorless powder with 5000 mg per serving. A versatile base for athletes who prefer to weigh and combine their own citrulline rather than buy a ready-made pre-workout, with a tub that lasts a long time with daily use.
