NITRATES 600 + CITRULLINE SHOT GEL

At Crown Sport Nutrition we have developed Nitrates 600 + Citrulline to address a key need in sports performance: effectively increasing Nitric Oxide levels. We know that nitrates in sports play a crucial role in improving endurance, optimizing blood flow and enhancing muscle recovery. This product combines 600 mg of nitrates and 6,000 mg of citrulline in a convenient gel format, ideal for athletes seeking sustained energy and improved performance capacity.

• 600 mg of Nitrates per gel
• 6,000 mg of Citrulline per gel
• Dual Nitric Oxide action: anaerobic and aerobic pathways
• Informed Sport anti-doping certification
• Convenient gel format
• Allergen-free and suitable for vegans

Nitrates 600 + Citrulline is designed to enhance sports performance. It helps increase Nitric Oxide (NO) levels in the body using Nitrates and Citrulline. These two compounds boost NO via different mechanisms. The gel format is easy to carry and use. It is certified by Informed Sport, vegan-friendly and allergen-free.

Own scientific evidence (under review)

Crown Sport Nutrition, in collaboration with the University of Greenwich, has developed a study (currently under review) with the following design:

• Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial
• Moderately trained individuals (men and women, non-elite)
• Comparison: nitrates vs. nitrates + citrulline vs. placebo

Main results:

• Increase in VO₂peak (aerobic power)
• Improvement in maximal aerobic speed (MAS)
• Increase in time to exhaustion (fatigue tolerance)
• Improved lactate clearance, indicating more efficient recovery.

In addition, the combination of nitrates + citrulline showed the most consistent and pronounced effects compared to nitrates alone.

Benefits of Using Nitrates in Sports

Nitric Oxide enhances performance by increasing blood flow, delivering more oxygen and nutrients to the muscles. This supports greater exercise capacity with less effort, improves muscle strength, and helps speed up recovery.

Nitric Oxide cannot be taken directly, but we can consume ingredients that help produce it, such as Nitrates (from beetroot) and Citrulline. Both are supported by scientific evidence.

How Nitrates Work (Anaerobic Pathway)

Nitrates from beetroot extract are converted into Nitrites in the mouth by bacteria. Then, in low-oxygen conditions in the intestines, nitrates are transformed into Nitric Oxide.

How Citrulline Works (Aerobic Pathway)

Citrulline is converted into Arginine in the body. Arginine is then used to produce Nitric Oxide with the help of an enzyme. Citrulline is more effective than taking Arginine directly because it is better absorbed.

Nitrates 600 + Citrulline is completely safe and certified by Informed Sport.
