Extensive research and peer-reviewed studies on the benefits of beets, validate and prove its long list of benefits. Backed by the International Olympic Committee, beetroot fuel faster, stronger, safer performance—naturally.

In the competitive world of European sports, athletes are constantly seeking safe, effective, and legitimate ways to gain a competitive advantage. The good news? Science has provided a clear path. The International Olympic Committee (IOC), a beacon of integrity and performance standards, has officially recognized beetroot as one of only five supplements with sufficient evidence to improve athletic performance.

This endorsement solidifies beetroot's place at the forefront of natural sports nutrition across Europe and beyond.

Why Beetroot Stands Out: The IOC's Stamp of Approval

The IOC's consensus statement on dietary supplements and the high-performance athlete is a rigorous guide for sports professionals, coaches, and athletes. It critically reviews available scientific evidence, identifying supplements that genuinely work. To be included in this elite group of five (which also includes caffeine, creatine, beta-alanine, and sodium bicarbonate), a supplement must demonstrate a consistent and significant ergogenic (performance-enhancing) effect through robust, peer-reviewed research.

Beetroot, particularly in concentrated powder form like Stamox, meets this stringent criterion due to its rich content of dietary nitrates.

The Science Behind the European Advantage: How Stamox Fuels Performance

When consumed, the nitrates in beetroot are converted by the body into Nitric Oxide (NO). This molecule plays a crucial role in cardiovascular health and, critically for athletes, in exercise physiology.

Faster Recovery

  1. Enhanced Endurance and VO2​ Max:

    Nitric Oxide acts as a powerful vasodilator, relaxing and widening blood vessels. This effect significantly improves blood flow to working muscles, delivering oxygen and nutrients more efficiently.

    For European cyclists tackling alpine climbs, runners pushing for personal bests in marathons, or rowers striving for faster splits, this means a reduced oxygen cost of exercise. Muscles can perform at a higher intensity for longer periods with less oxygen, directly translating to improved endurance and an elevated VO2​ max.

  2. Increased Power and Strength:

    While often associated with endurance, beetroot also plays a vital role in power output. Enhanced blood flow benefits not just slow-twitch fibers but also the fast-twitch fibers responsible for explosive movements – crucial for football sprints, rugby scrums, or powerful jumps in athletics.

    Studies have shown that nitrate supplementation can improve muscle contractile efficiency, allowing athletes to generate more force and power during high-intensity efforts.

  3. Faster Recovery:

    Post-exercise, the sustained improvement in blood circulation helps to more efficiently flush out metabolic byproducts like lactic acid.

    Furthermore, increased blood flow accelerates the delivery of vital nutrients and reparative compounds to damaged muscle tissue, leading to quicker recovery times. This allows European athletes, from the local club level to international competitors, to train harder and more frequently without overtraining.
