Designs for Health NOx Synergy - Drink Mix Powder to Support Healthy Nitric Oxide Levels - L-Arginine, Creatine, L-Citrulline + More - Pre Workout - Grape Flavor (30 Servings / 270g)

This is an exceptional and well trusted brand that is carried by my physician's office, so I was excited to try this product. The key ingredients per serving: L-Arginine – 1.5 g L-Citrulline – 1.5 g Taurine – 1 g Magnesium Creatine Chelate (Creatine MagnaPower) – 1.5 g Creatine (from Creatine MagnaPower) – 675 mg Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) – 300 mg Folate (as Quatrefolic) – 170 mcg DFE Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B5) – 100 mg Magnesium – 120 mg Grape and Apple Extracts – 250 mg (standardized to 95% polyphenols) L-Glutathione – 100 mg Ultimately, this is designed to enhance cardiovascular health and exercise performance. It is also vegetarian-friendly (NOT vegan), non-GMO, and gluten/dairy/soy free. The sweetener is stevia-based and I found the flavor to be pleasant, not overly sweet or artificial. You can of course, adjust according to your personal preference, but still should pay attention to the serving sizes to know how much of each vitamin/mineral you are consuming as a safety precaution. While on the pricier side, I feel the quality justifies the cost of this product. What you put into your body should be top quality! I have used this on workout days that require a bit more intensity and have noticed a difference in my performance and endurance.

Update: I still stand by my review of this supplement being over priced by atleast 100%, it should be half the price atleast. But I do wanna up the stats little because I actually genuinely love this product despite the price being too high and the doses for nitric oxide production in particular being low, because I love the taste now it grew on me and i love the way it makes me feel. It’s great in that regard. But still, too expensive. $84 is Craaazzzy for this supplement. You’re barely even increasing NO with the tiny amount of citruline, and L arginine doesn’t even convert in the body well to NO at all (watch Derek MPMD gorilla mode nitric video to understand this) Speaking of gorilla mode nitric, you’ll be getting a full 5G dose of creatine and a world more nitric oxide increasing ingredients for way less, it’s like half the price of this. So if they cut the price in half I’d maybe put it at 4 stars. If they did that and added more bang for your buck like a full dose of creatine instead of the peanut 500mg that’s in it, and maybe some agmitine sulfate to help brain neurotoxicity from excess neuronal NO, I’d go 5 stars. (Nitric gorilla mode also has agmitine) Only problem with Gorilla mode is the sucralose which I hate and is bad for the gut and gives me a stomach achy feeling almost right away. Which this doesn’t have any artificial sweeteners so I like that. I also like the folate is in methylated form instead of folic acid otherwise I wouldn’t have even requested this item. So that’s smart atleast and very rare to see In Sport supps and drinks. The taste is sorta good, there is a noticable hint of some gross ingredients but not insanely bad over powering, I can still enjoy this well enough. No artificial colors either, and yet the color is really nice looking. Some good ingredients but wayyy over priced and wayy underdosed for being an NO supp. Also lastly I’m slightly torn on the health aspects of NO supps, because people like Georgi Dinkov have articles of studies showing elevated NO in the brain coinciding with autism because NO is a free radical and can cause neurological damage apparently. So I’m no expert but I really am interested on that and how much NO is doing bad vs good overall. But none the less this is an NO supp so I can’t take too much away from them for that, I would like some agmatine sulfate in here though like i said, that’d atleast help the brain pathways of NO and concentrate it to the muscles which is why most people take these anyway. But all in all it’s half decent supp not thanks to the NO ingredients but the little bit of creatine, the magnesium, folate, and other fun compounds. BUT wayy to expensive for what you’re getting here imo.

The Designs for Health NOx Synergy powder is my favorite way to start the morning. I really enjoy the grape flavor—it tastes clean and smooth without being overly sweet or artificial. It mixes easily in water and goes well with my morning supplement routine. I’ve noticed it gives me a good, steady boost without any crash, making it a great pre-workout or general energy support formula. I appreciate the thoughtful combination of ingredients like L-arginine, L-citrulline, and creatine. It feels effective, and I believe it supports my circulation and workout endurance but this is just a subjective report and should not be used as medical advice or a claim that it cures a disease. I like the way it boosts my stamina, alertness, and energy levels. Overall, I think this is a well-formulated supplement. It delivers both in taste and performance, and I find it to be a strong value for the price. I will continue using it and recommend it to others. It also works great mixed with Collagen Powder from Amazon.

I've used many other designs for health products in the past and have been happy with them so I was excited to try this pre-workout powder. I also liked that this product unlike many didn't have any stimulants in it. At first sip I was terribly disappointed as it's truly disgusting. There's a strong chemical taste, almost like copper and the grape flavor was barely noticeable and not nearly enough to mask the unbearable flavor of this powder.

I am not a medical doctor, so this is my opinion of the product after using it for 30 days, so please also discuss this product and how to increase your nitric oxide levels with your doctor. Also, please consider researching nitric oxide, as I think it is one of the more important health supplements that many do not take and is actually very important for your health. Note that this does not contain nitric oxide, but helps your body to create it. It also has Vitamin C and Magnesium which many people do not take sufficient levels of either. I could not really tell a big difference when taking this product, but I am typically high energy all day long. The only drawback in my humble opinion is the value may not be as high as other products, but it is an excellent product, has excellent ingredients, and tastes good to me (I like grape). This is highly recommended if your budget allows constant use.

Most of us take supplements for many reasons. This is the first time I tried to boost “nitric oxide” for anticipated pre-workout benefits and enhanced exercise performance. I am glad this product does not use caffeine as it’s main ingredient (like most other pre-workout products). And, I’m glad it uses stevia… my preferred sweetener. My first experience was to use the included scoop to add the powder to a glass of ice water. It seemed to mix well with a few spoon swirls, and it was a deep, opaque, cloudy, purple color… see photo. It had a grape smell and taste… not great / not bad. After consuming it, I saw some unmixed solids in bottom of glass. Like many supplements, I can’t judge its efficacy until I’ve used it for some time. Unfortunately, I experienced a reaction the next morning... intense itching all over my torso and a bright red rash spots on my face and forehead. Nothing else was unique about my diet or environment except this product. I may try it again in a few days at half strength because I really want to experience the benefits. Certification of ingredients by 3rd party testing would help credibility for sensitive folks like me.

Supplement tasted great. Mixes very well and gotta say I was skeptical about using this as a preworkout, but it works. I say it works because I used it before a cardio session and honestly I felt amazing. Fatigue didn't set it. My heart rate was in the proper zone, and believe it or not energy was there to complete my 10K workout. Bonus about this supplement is that it has some creatine in the mix. Go read your facts about creatine because its a supplement powerhouse. Highly recommend this supplement if your looking for a preworkout that doesn't have caffeine and will keep you energized throughout your whole session.

My experience with the Designs for Health NOx Synergy - Drink Mix Powder to Support Healthy Nitric Oxide Levels - L-Arginine, Creatine, L-Citrulline + More - Pre Workout - Grape Flavor (30 Servings / 270g) - truly gross! While I think this might work, I don't know if I can stomach it more than once. I'm surprised there's no caffeine in this. I felt a jolt of energy within a few sips. I guess that's part of the goal. It could be that I was trying to just chug it down because it's truly awful. I will eat and drink some weird stuff, so I'm not picky. The power alone smells like grape...at first, but very quickly there's a very strong artificial sweetener type of smell. That's the good news. I followed the instructions and mixed 1 scoop (included) with 8 oz of water. I blended it in my little drink blender so that it would really blend up all of the powder granules. It blended into a nice, purple, grape looking drink. I was pretty happy with the looks of it. I dropped in some ice cubes and took a drink from my cup. BIG MISTAKE! It smelled like burnt rubber. Was my blender on the fritz? Is that what caused this smell? Nope. Sadly, it was the drink. It tasted the way it smelled. At first there's a slight fake (which I expected) grape flavor, which quickly dissipates into a very strong liquid burnt rubber taste. I never was curious about the taste of rubber, and never thought I would taste it in liquid form, but there I was in my kitchen, purple drink in hand, drinking down this awful rubbery tasting drink. I'm not talking the type of taste you get when you blow up a balloon and that rubber or latex taste sort of lingers. This was like a liquified tire. I just can't describe the taste. Do yourself a favor and grab a straw and don't even take a sniff or whiff of this first. Just drink it. I got a straw and hoped if I wasn't smelling it, it might taste better. Wrong. The fact that this is $84.00 and tasted as horrible as it does is criminal. Good luck!
