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 VPX N.O. Shotgun v.3® - Watermelon:
Got this as a free sample at the gym. This stuff made my lips and face tingle like crazy for about 20 minutes. Almost barfed it out during my bi-weekly 10k run. I want to try it again for just lifting and not cardio. But WOW! Definitely an energy booster.

Comments about VPX N.O. Shotgun v.3® - Watermelon:
I found this product good for a nice pre- and during workout pump. Also I felt that it may have allowed me to recover slightly faster. I attribute this to the protein it contains that you are consuming during your workout. Also Lactose Intollerance Suffers Beware, it does contain milk and the one day I forgot to take my pills the pain and bathroom runs were terrible.

Comments about VPX N.O. Shotgun v.3® - Watermelon:
This is by far the best product I have found as far as energy supplements go but this flavor sucks. the exotic fruit is a a little better. but nothing that works ever tastes good.

Cons

Comments about VPX N.O. Shotgun v.3® - Watermelon:
first time used, had about 5 hour charge. Energy level was extreme but mental alertness was minimal. Would use it occasionally.
Pros

- Tasty
Cons
Best Uses
- Before Workout
Comments about VPX N.O. Shotgun v.3® - Watermelon:
I drink this about 20-30 minutes before weights. I don't like drinking caffeine prior to high intensity cardio because it just makes me feel weird and I think the workout is worse. However, if you are going in for a high intensity weight/abs workout this stuff is the best. I have tried other pre-workouts before but this tastes good and doesn't have any side effects. The effects are noticeable in stronger pumps, increased vascularity, focus, motivation, and your muscles are just ready for you when you want them. Also it has protein so I am sure it helps me recover faster too.
Pros
- Good Value
- Tasty
Cons
- Not Effective
Best Uses
- Before Workout
Comments about VPX N.O. Shotgun v.3® - Watermelon:
Like that it doesn't have artificial color; great taste; but I don't feel like I get the same boost in energy as with other NO2 type products.
Pros

- Builds Muscle
- Good Value
- Quickens Recovery Time
- Tasty
Cons
Best Uses
- Before Workout
Comments about VPX N.O. Shotgun v.3® - Watermelon:
Shotgun gives me great pumps and the focus is crazy. The 20 grams of protein is a great value as well since I do not have to take a protein shake anymore before I workout. My strength has went up on all my exercises and lifts and I have also put on about 5lbs on muscle which I never have done before on any other pre-workout product. Best and most complete pre-workout product I have ever used!!

- Boosts Energy
- Builds Muscle
- Good Value

Comments about VPX N.O. Shotgun v.3® - Watermelon:
NO-Shotgun is the most amazing supplement I have ever taken! I strongly suggest this product to anyone who is trying to get more out of their workout. I have more energy, strength, and less fatigue during my workouts when I consume NO-Shotgun directly before hand. I used to be anti-supplement, but this product in particular changed my mind about the world of supplementation! This is by far the best product out on the market today!

- Boosts Energy
- Builds Muscle

Comments about VPX N.O. Shotgun v.3® - Watermelon:
A friend recommend the NO Shotgun to me a few months back. I finally took his advice and wow am I glad!!!! What an amazing product. Not only does the Watermelon taste refreshing it worked wonders on my works. I took it on my way to the gym and by the time I walked in my skin was on fire, I guess the Beta Alanine tingle hit me quick. Best part of the product is I wasn't nearly as sore the next day.
Take this product!!!!Displaying reviews 1-10
