500mg
Exercise performance (constant-load & time-trial)
Moderate
Population: Healthy, recreationally active adults; sub-elite more than elite
Study type: Systematic review & meta-analysis
Dose context: 400 mg typical (range: 300–600 mg) • Duration: Acute to chronic (≥3 days)

Significant improvement in exercise performance (d = 0.17, 95% CI 0.12–0.23; p<0.001) across 80 studies; greatest benefit in constant-power tests & sub-elite populations.

Citation: Hoon MW et al. Int J Sport Nutr Exerc Metab. 2013;23(5):522–532.•DOI: 10.1123/ijsnem.23.5.522•https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23580439/
Optimal acute dose: 5–15 mmol NO3−, ≥2–3 h pre-exercise.
Ergogenic effects of nitrate across sport types & populations
Moderate
Population: Athletes and active adults (80 studies)
Study type: Systematic review & meta-analysis
Dose context: 400 mg typical (range: 300–800 mg) • Duration: Acute to chronic

Consistent ergogenic effect across aerobic performance measures; effects moderated by fitness level, inspired O2 fraction, & biological sex.

Citation: Senefeld JW et al. Med Sci Sports Exerc. 2020;52(10):2250–2261.•DOI: 10.1249/MSS.0000000000002363•https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32936597/
Elite athletes show smaller or no effect; benefit most reliable in recreationally trained individuals.

Aerobic exercise performance / oxygen kinetics / RPE
Moderate
Population: Recreationally active and trained adults
Study type: Systematic review & meta-analysis
Dose context: 6000 mg typical (range: 3000–9000 mg) • Duration: Acute to 7 days

Positive impact on aerobic performance outcomes including lactate, VO2 kinetics, & perceived exertion via nitric oxide-mediated vasodilation; results mixed, effect sizes small.

Citation: Viribay A et al. Nutrients. 2022;14(17):3479.•DOI: 10.3390/nu14173479•https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36079738/
Ergogenic effects more consistent for resistance than large-muscle endurance tasks.
Systolic blood pressure reduction
Moderate
Population: Adults; mixed health status (8 trials)
Study type: Systematic review & meta-analysis
Dose context: 6000 mg typical (range: 3000–9000 mg) • Duration: 1–17 weeks

Pooled reduction of −4.1 mmHg systolic BP (95% CI −7.94 to −0.26); diastolic reduction significant only at ≥6 g/day.

Citation: Barkhidarian B et al. J Hum Hypertens. 2019;33(1):10–21.•DOI: 10.1038/s41371-018-0113-1•https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30788274/
Antihypertensive effect modest; most consistent with doses ≥6 g/day.
Resistance exercise repetitions to failure
Moderate
Population: Resistance-trained adults
Study type: Systematic review & meta-analysis
Dose context: 8000 mg typical (range: 6000–8000 mg) • Duration: Acute (single dose pre-exercise)

Significant benefit for total repetitions to failure vs. placebo (SMD = 0.20, p = 0.036) with citrulline malate; 8 g acutely prior to upper/lower body resistance exercise.

Citation: Trexler ET et al. Eur J Sport Sci. 2021;21(9):1229–1238.•https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34010809/
Pérez-Guisado & Jakeman 2010 RCT (PMID 20386132) found ~52% more bench press reps with 8 g CM vs. placebo.
