Daily intake is ideal – regardless of training – to continuously replenish stores such as creatine and nitrate.

Oxystorm® has been added to provide a standardized, higher concentration of nitrates compared with conventional spinach extract. Together with iron, it can support oxygen transport in the body and the formation of red blood cells. Ecdysterone from spinach extract has also been included in the WADA Monitoring Program since 2020.

Yes. When sweating, the body loses important electrolytes such as zinc and magnesium, which are essential for nerve function and muscle activity.
