Post study where 925mg does nothing though. They could have just put in betaine nitrate (S-tier pumps) but they added that for some reason

glycerol, betaine and nitrate increase cellular hydration sometimes referred to as hyperhydration

yes they both increase cellular hydration on their own even though the betaine is bound to nitrate. no I do not use gayai to do my research I've been doing this for decades and recite the purpose of nearly every fitness related molecule by memory cause I'm not a brainlet like you who they had to create the gaybots for faggot

Betaine anhydrous does fuck all for muscle pumps, while bn is more potent per mg than l-citrulline. Not everything is in your book.

>>76886051
>it must be nice to be retarded and certain of it
What's retarded is thinking an abstract concept like improved cellular hydration, with no quantitative data, matters to anyone. If 2g betaine without nitrate hypothetically increased muscle volume by 1%, no one would notice or care, but if you take 2g betaine nitrate and dumbbell ohp 25 reps to failure your delts hurt from the pump. Fuckheads like you are why it's almost impossible to find a preworkout with everything that works.

Yes and that's what they do.
>>
>>76886107
How much? Numbers.
>>
>>76886112
I never claimed how much. You're conflating muscle pumps (nitric oxide production) with cellular hydration. There's overlap between the two but they work differently. Betaine does both and more.
>>
>>76886134
>I never claimed how much.
It's irrelevant then. Noise.
>>
>>76886150
Tell me a single other molecule that increases cellular hydration, increases nitric oxide production, lowers homocysteine, increases muscle growth and lowers body fat all in one then we can start discussing your odd interpretation of effect size.

>Nitric oxide (NO) levels were also measured in all of the samples by using a chromogenic method. Betaine administration resulted in an increase (20-90%)
>>
>>76886266
It's acknowledged in the later study.
>perhaps older individuals with lower basal nitrate/nitrite levels may respond more favorably to betaine supplementation as compared to young and healthy subjects.

Preworkout isn't for old geezers so if you're putting betaine in it might as well be nitrate.
>>
>>76886310
Measuring nitric oxide levels directly in the study I provided is more reliable and sophisticated method. The study you provided measured markers, nitric oxide directly.
>>
>>76886326
Fucking hell, I've taken anhydrous and lifted and no pump. Nitrate only, not even in preworkout, pump. I trust reality.

At least I know what lifting weights feels like, narcissist twat.

You have to imagine me as inferior because you're arguments fail and you're bad at researching things. I lift everyday am physically active and have god tier research skills. Hey at least AI and social media influencers are here to mislead you further little guy

>refuses to consider single old study may not be accurate despite contradictory scientific evidence and personal testimony
God tier. Thanks for shitting up the thread without providing a single word of useful information.
>>
>>76888977
The study provided measured markers of nitric oxide not nitric oxide directly. A newer study is only better if it provides newer testing methodology are better design. The study provided neither measured nitric oxide directly nor did it provide a superior design. You are quite possibly the stupidest person on planet earth. The fact that betaine is included in nearly every pump supplement should tell you something. No it shouldn't nevermind you're straight retarded. Ignore the science and continue consuming the slop retard
>>
And if you want to continue blabbering about your n=1 there also countless anecdotes to the contrary ie betaine does in fact provide a pump effect based on anecdotes as well as scientific proof
>>
>>76888990
>keeps ignoring study of men who exercise showing no effect
>ignores that i compared anhydrous and nitrate and only nitrate works

>countless anecdotes to the contrary ie betaine does in fact provide a pump effect based on anecdotes as well as scientific proof
>doesn't provide it

I have a bottle of TMG for health but it's useless as purely preworkout.
>>
>>76889015
You're ignoring a study where they actually measured nitric oxide levels increases rather than a marker for nitric oxide production. You are literally retarded. kys faggot
>>
>>76889018
>markers are inaccurate

Wow actual substantive discourse on /fit/. What the fuck am I witnessing
>>
>>76889028
Yes markers are a less reliable measuring than the molecule itself. Only a literal retard doesn't understand how directly measuring is more reliable than measuring directly.

Why doesn't it work on men who exercise then?
>markers don't work despite them being used by scientists for published studies for some reason

What's the difference between anhydrous and nitrate in rats?
>idk but if anhydrous does anything it's good enough for preworkout
It isn't though. Another reason I know is because they can put as much anhydrous along with 6g L-citrulline and it won't do anything, but if use 2g nitrate and 6g L-citrulline your deltoids will explode. They reduce L-cit if it has betaine nitrate because it actually WORKS.

No spectral analysis needed.

I wouldn't be surprised if you make a preworkout and claim in the description it increases blood flow or something to that effect because of one study you only read the abstract of so you can't concede it doesn't do anything. That would mean false advertising.
>>
>>76889136
because of mental midgets like you the world be misled into thinking nitrate is the only mediator n2o production which can be dismissed without any further discussion because it's flat out wrong and it would be a lie if it weren't a result of you being retarded instead
>>
>>76889257
Straw man, l-citrulline, l-arginine, and betaine nitrate are all nitric oxide boosters. (Betaine anhydrous doesn't do anything noticeable as The Science says.)
>>
>>76889344
According to studies you posted Trimethylglycine aka Betaine doesn't increase nitrite/nitrate. Fun fact: there are other ways to induce vasodilation that of which Betaine does. Your studies do not conclude Betaine doesn't induce vasodilation. Your studies conclude Betaine doesn't increase nitrate: a claim nobody made but your gay retarded ass you braindead faggot. At this point I'm convinced you work for op's supplement company and are trying to create free exposure by pretending be retarded for the next 100 replies. In fact I'll start making your responses for you as they're so predictable and incorrect at the same time.

you searched for betaine nitrate and found it instead of something else shocker really
