Product description

U Nitrate is a concentrated beetroot shot containing 500mg of nitrate (8mmol). We have chosen to increase the amount of nitrate in U Nitrate from the 400mg that several others have, up to 500mg (+25%).

  • If your VO2max is 60ml/kg/min or lower, then 500mg (8mmol) seems to suffice. If you have a higher oxygen uptake, we recommend 2 shots (see usage instructions).

Usage

Drink 1-2 U Nitrate 2.5 hours before activity.

Avoid spitting from the time of intake until the start of the activity as this interrupts the vasodilating effect of the nitrate. You can drink and eat other things in the meantime, but your saliva, where the conversion from nitrate to nitrite occurs, should not leave the mouth but be swallowed again. There's no need to overthink it, just carry on as usual but remember not to spit frequently during these 2.5 hours.

Developed by Biomedical Scientists in Sweden to ensure that as a customer, you can always be confident that what you are purchasing is safe and of the highest quality.

All ingredients are approved by the EFSA (European Food Safety Authority). 100% vegan.

FAQs

How does U Nitrate work? The nitrate comes from beetroot concentrate and is converted through a series of steps into nitric oxide (NO), which is the active substance that dilates/widens our blood vessels. This reduces resistance in the blood vessels, increases blood circulation, and makes oxygen transport to working muscles more efficient.

Do I need to buffer U Nitrate? If your oxygen uptake is over 60ml/kg/min, we recommend 2 shots 2.5 hours before activity. To guarantee a maximized effect, you can also buffer the levels by taking 1 shot per day for 4-7 days before a competition. With buffering, 1 shot 2.5 hours before the start is sufficient, regardless of oxygen uptake.
