Nitro X: Should You Take It, Or Just Leave It?

"Take Nitro X and Just Be a Man." This is the seductive slogan that greeted me upon my arrival at the website of the supplier of Nitro X. But it was their online advertisement that sparked my initial interest in the supplement, and that led to my wanting to learn more about it.

Nitro X is a muscle building and performance enhancing supplement, you can claim your trial order (a one month supply) on their website. And with bold claims of muscle and strength gains, fat-loss and sexual stamina, who wouldn't be tempted to try it? Not many I'm sure.

But just how much satisfaction if any will you get from supplementing with Nitro X? In order to find out, let's take a look at some of the ingredients that it contains. Since there is a total of twenty, we'll only take a closer look at those upon which its supplier base their claims.

• Glutamine
• Vitamins B-3, B-6, B-12
• Yohimbine HCL
• Green Tea

Glutamine:  L-Glutamine is a naturally occurring essential amino acid within our bodies. In fact, it is the most common amino acid present within our muscles. Sources of L-Glutamine includes meats, vegetables, and dairy products. The primary job of this essential amino acid is to prevent the breakdown of our muscles, and to assist them in their recovery after workouts.

Vitamins B-3 B-6, and B-12:  The job of B Vitamins is to support healthy cell metabolism. But Vitamins B-3 B-6 and B-12 have another important job, and that is to provide energy, and to convert carbohydrates to energy as well.

Yohimbine HCL: Once thought to increase testosterone levels, Yohimbine has since been downgraded to being more of an aphrodisiac. However, Yohimbine has been proven to be effective at producing harder erections.

Green Tea:  Green Tea has been around for centuries, and when consumed it has many health benefits. But given the claims of Nitro X, there can be just one reason why it contains Green Tea, and that is to aid in the loss of fat.

Now, let's sum all of this information up in order to answer our question. Should you take Nitro X or leave it? Well, based upon the main ingredients within Nitro X, this supplement appears to be no more than a libido enhancer with a dash of a fat-loss aid and muscle tissue preserver.

If this is what you desire, by all means give Nitro X a try. If your goal is to build muscle mass, leave it alone, because I doubt your are going to see any gains by supplementing with it. But whatever you decide to do, be sure to read the fine print carefully because if Nitro X's offer sounds too good to be true, it just might turn out to be.
