Timing & dose is crucial…
You can’t just throw nitrates in everything and hope for the best as too much nitrate can actually have negative side effects along with not being as effective!
It’s ALL About The Correct Dose For YOU…
In addition to timing of nitrates being a critical factor, individual dose is also vital to maximizing any nitrate-based product…
This is why we recommend that you start with 3 capsules (2 for those under 140 pounds) of Yok3d on workout days only and go from there. We provide a dosing chart on each label for a guide, but it’s just a guide, you have to find what works best for you…
Take too much or too often and you won’t like the results. Gone are the days of having to take a Nitric Oxide enhancing pill multiple times per day or even every day for that matter…
If you were to do that with Yok3d, you could become TOO vasodilated…that’s how strong it is…
Don’t Waste Your Nitrates
Don’t cheat yourself and waste your money by following incorrect dosing guidelines…
Instead of making random guess as to when you should consume a serving of Yok3d, we have used published kinetic data on nitrates to determine our dosing for Yok3d.
You see, if you consume a serving of nitrates and then begin working out only 15-45 minutes later, you’re wasting a great deal of the product’s efficacy.
Studies have shown that nitrate levels begin to increase as early as 10 minutes after ingestion and they generally peak anywhere from 30 minutes to 1.5 hours and in some cases, the peak may take even longer to occur (37-41).
Yet, it would be a MAJOR mistake to time the dose based upon nitrate concentrations alone because the activity (i.e., increased Nitric Oxide) that we’re after is actually directly derived from nitrite, the reduced product of nitrate.
In effect, you want nitrite levels to be highest when you’re working out as nitrite is first in line for conversion to N.O.
Looking at the studies which have evaluated nitrite levels after nitrate administration, we find that N.O. doesn’t begin to increase substantially over that of baseline values until 1-2 hours post administration where levels reach a peak between 2-3 hours after administration…

It is no coincidence that indicators of vasodilation and certain performance markers aren’t significantly affected until at least 60-90 minutes post administration and don’t reach a peak until the 2 hour or greater mark (37, 42).
BOTTOM LINE: Don’t take nitrates at the same time as your pre-workout, take them before…
