General Considerations
For the most optimal dosage for YOU specifically, we recommend following our Watts Testing guide.
Never try a new supplement strategy on race day. Use it during a long training run (30km+) to ensure your stomach handles the concentrated fiber and sweetness under stress.
The conversion of nitrate to nitrite happens via bacteria on your tongue. Using antibacterial mouthwash or strong toothpaste right after taking Stamox can actually kill those bacteria and negate the benefits.
While many studies show positive effects, individual responses can vary. Some athletes may experience more significant benefits than others.
Every body is unique and has its own limits. As you approach your personal peak, further gains require more precise adjustments. Since no two people are alike, it's crucial to experiment and find your optimal dose and timing for Stamox. Factors like body weight and individual physiological responses to the natural compounds in Stamox will influence its effects differently for everyone.
Don't Panic at the "Pink": Be aware that beetroot powder can turn your urine (and stools) pink or red (beeturia), and it’s harmless.
The most common side effect is beeturia (pink/red urine or stool), which is harmless. Some individuals might experience mild gastrointestinal discomfort.
