-
Nitric Oxide
Nitric Oxide- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.

Used for Amount Why Athletic Performance4 gram three times per day 
[2 stars] It has been speculated that AAKG may increase production of nitric oxide, a substance known to enhance blood flow. In one study, AAKG improved measures of strength and short-term power performance in weight lifters.Nitric oxide is the popular name for AAKG (arginine alpha-ketoglutarate), a compound made from the amino acid L-arginine and alpha-ketoglutarate, a substance formed in the body's energy-generating process. AAKG is a popular supplement among bodybuilders and other athletes because of claims that it increases production of nitric oxide in muscles. Nitric oxide is known to have blood-flow-enhancing effects,1 which could in theory increase the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to exercising muscle. While L-arginine by itself is known to increase nitric oxide production, no research has been done to show that AAKG does the same. However, double-blind trials of AAKG suggest it improves some measures of strength and power resulting from weight training.2, 3

Comments about CytoSport™ Monster Pump™ - Fruit Punch:
I received these as a sample from Cyto Sport and I love their muscle milk so i had some hopes for this one as well. Unfortunately I am very disappointed. 1) It does not mix completely and you can feel the grains in your mouth and can feel them go down your throat. 2) It taste bad, not the worst (Their Monster Amino and Monster Milk taste far worse) but bearable. 3) This did nother for me at all. No increased energy and no pump at all. 4) I have tried 3-4 other preworkouts and this is the only one that caused me to crash afterwards...Will never buy this one again.

Comments about CytoSport™ Monster Pump™ - Fruit Punch:
I tried this stuff while taking a break from Cellucor C-4. The taste is horrible and grainy. Got horible acid reflux and heartburn. I actually lost muscle on this product. This product is not even close to Cellucor C-4, so its back to a pre workout that works!

When I received the product it was hard as a rock and I needed a knife to break it up. I don't know if this affected the quality but I expected more from Cytosport. I should have returned it and got another one. Interested in trying a container that is made correctly.
