The most important ingredients in the supplement are L-ornithine and L-citrulline. This is because they are converted to L-arginine (which for some strange reason is not included in this supplement) which is then converted into nitric oxide by the cells that line the blood vessels called endothelial cells. Nitric oxide causes the smooth muscle underneath the industrial cells to relax so that the vessel opens to improve blood flow.
The rest of the amino acids (basically all the ingredients with an L in front of them) were probably included because they are necessary for protein synthesis which helps to build muscle or because they can be converted to other amino acids which feature in the nitric oxide synthesis pathway.
The first four ingredients listed of vitamins which are necessary for the synthesis of nitric oxide and building muscle as well as several other biological functions. The magnesium and potassium help to relax tight muscles to improve recovery after a workout. Sodium and calcium help muscles to contract more strongly so they help during a workout.

The manufacturer advises against using this supplement on non workout days.

Gaspari Super Pump Max Review – Conclusion
There are plenty of helpful ingredients included in this supplement. It is a bit strange though that this supplement is missing arginine. The product is also a bit pricey, which is quite concerning when coupled with the lack of a guarantee. Customer stand the risk of spending large amounts of money on a supplement that simply doesn’t work for them. Although the supplement is adequate we definitely believe there are better ones for customers to try.
