Ingredient Spotlight: S7®

 

S7 is one of the newer nitric oxide-boosting ingredients on the market. Perhaps surprisingly, S7 effectively increases nitric oxide production using only a 50mg dose. In our latest edition, Ingredient Spotlight: S7, we’ll take a close look at what S7 is, its benefits, and tell you what 5% supplements contain this impressive ingredient.

What Is S7?

S7 is a low-dose, patented blend consisting of 7 natural ingredients. These ingredients are Green Coffee Bean Extract, Green Tea Extract, Turmeric, Tart Cherry, Blueberry, Broccoli, And Kale. As noted, one thing that sets S7 apart is that all that’s required is a low 50mg dose.(1)

S7 Benefits

S7 provides the following benefits:

  • S7 is clinically researched and proven effective - it’s a branded ingredient
  • It stimulates your body’s own production of nitric oxide
  • S7 is a nitrate-free product  
  • It consists of 7 plant-based ingredients
  • It works synergistically with other nitric oxide boosters to increase nitric oxide production
  • S7 is a soluble, versatile ingredient

So, How Does S7 Increase Nitric Oxide Production?

Nitric oxide (N.O.) is naturally produced by the body. Its primary function is to act as a vasodilator, which means it causes the blood vessels to relax. This in turn increases blood flow which increases the pump you experience when you work out. Not to mention, more blood flow increases nutrients and oxygen to your working muscles. Oxygen improves performance. Nutrient delivery includes the ingredients in your 5% pre-workout and intra-workout stack. This means these ingredients are more efficiently used. From there, more blood flow means the removal of waste products that could negatively affect performance. S7 is not an ingested nitrate product. Instead, it stimulates your body’s own natural production of nitric oxide. 

The Ingredients In S7 

As noted, S7 is a patented combination of Green Coffee Bean Extract, Green Tea Extract, Turmeric, Tart Cherry, Blueberry, Broccoli, And Kale. Let’s take a closer look at these ingredients:

Green Coffee Bean - This compound stimulates eNOS (endothelial nitric oxide synthase). This is part of the enzyme group that’s responsible for nitric oxide production in the body.

Green Tea Extract - One benefit of green tea is that it inhibits ACE (angiotensin-converting enzyme) activity. A negative effect of angiotensin is that it constricts blood vessels. This slows blood flow, limiting your pumps. 

Turmeric - This popular compound has strong vasorelaxation properties. Plus, turmeric improves enzyme activity which enhances the availability of nitric oxide.

Tart Cherry - This ingredient is a source of anthocyanins, which has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits. Plus, these flavonoids promote healthy circulation. 

Blueberry - This delicious fruit is also a well-known antioxidant. Not to mention, it’s believed to stimulate the production of nitric oxide. 

Broccoli - This common vegetable is an excellent source of nitrates, which convert into nitric oxide in the body. 

Kale - Here’s a very popular superfood that has a high CoQ10 and nitrate content. Both increase nitric oxide production.
