product description
Master plant: Amaranthus spp
Amaranthaceae (Foxtail Family)
Origin:
Amaranth or foxtail belongs to the foxtail family and is therefore one of the oldest cultivated plants. This ancient cultivated plant originally comes from southwestern North America or from Central America and was introduced into Europe in the 16th century. The amaranth is one of the pseudograins because the seeds can be used in a similar way to cereals, even if the species does not belong to the sweet grasses like the real cereals. The Aztecs used amaranth as a type of grain as a valuable food, natural remedy and coloring agent.
Properties and ingredients:
Amaranth extract is one of the few plant sources that contains squalene. The Oxystorm® Amaranth extract contains particularly high levels of nitrate (9-10%) and potassium (8-14%). These two substances increase blood flow and optimize the supply of oxygen.
Other ingredients, amino acids (proteins), polyphenols and fiber. Does not contain sugar or oxalates. It has a high bioavailability and is a natural free radical scavenger.
- Support of regeneration - Supports the removal of metabolic products, which can lead to improved muscle relaxation and recovery after training, e.g. in the gym or football
- Improvement of energy metabolism - Increases the proportion of nitrates in the body, which can improve energy metabolism - the dietary supplement promotes blood circulation and prevents signs of fatigue
- Regeneration and muscle building - rich in protein, amaranth is important for the regeneration phase after exercise and muscle building, it is rich in amino acids - increases performanceli>
- Sustained presence of nitric oxide (NO) - Has a blood circulation-promoting effect on the vessels.
- Biohacking - The increase in NO leads, among other things, to a reduction in blood pressure at rest, better blood circulation and resilience, and an increase in performance during physical activity
A new clinical study * confirmed that nitrate from amaranth leads to a significant increase in plasma nitrite and thus to an increase in nitrogen oxide. The physiological effects associated with such an increase in nitric oxide include, among other things, a reduction in blood pressure at rest, better blood circulation and improved exercise tolerance, as well as an increase in performance during exercise or other physical activity.
Nitrates and nitrites relax all types of smooth muscle cells. These compounds support the metabolism of energy in human cells, which helps prevent you from getting tired easily during exercise.

Application:
Since the powder is very soluble, it can be easily stirred into shakes or smoothies. When exercising, it is best to take half an hour beforehand.
