How long do the benefits of nitric oxide supplements last?

Dietary nitrate typically peaks in the bloodstream 2-3 hours after consumption and stays elevated for 6 hours thereafter at rest. During prolonged endurance exercise (>2hrs), the levels of nitrate in the blood stream and muscle stores decline faster than at rest, which is why we launched the Energy Gel Top 100, to ensure the levels of nitrate are topped up. Nitrate typically returns to baseline after 12-24 hours.

Are there any side effects?

Beetroot juice can cause beeturia, which is the passing of red or pink urine after consuming beets or beetroot products. This condition is due to the presence of betanin, a red pigment found in beets. Not everyone experiences beeturia; its occurrence varies among individuals. Beeturia is harmless and typically lasts between 12 and 48 hours, depending on individual factors such as metabolism, hydration levels, and overall health.

What does it taste like?
