Q: What Time of Day Should I Take a Nitric Oxide Supplement?
A: The easy answer is — taking your nitric oxide supplement any time of day is better than not taking any at all.
If you are dialing in your nutrition and have discovered the right way to eat for the best healthy living results, you will want to strategize the optimal delivery of nitric oxide to your bloodstream with your daily consumption of nutrients.
If you were to contact our Cardio Miracle team of experts, each will share a variety of answers:
- First, we will suggest the practice we recommend for everyone, as it's simple, effective, and ensures you don’t miss your daily servings.
- Since you are talking with real humans who actually consume and love Cardio Miracle, they may share their preferred best practices as well.
- Because we are not offering medical or nutritional advice as prescribed by a doctor, all information we share should ultimately be discussed with your physician to ensure timing, serving size, and frequency are appropriate for your health needs.
We asked our customer service leadership to send, word for word, what our team says when customers ask about the best time of day to take Cardio Miracle. Here are their answers.
ANSWER A:
Best practice is to take one serving in the morning and one at afternoon/night. However, if you find that you’re missing or forgetting the second one, combine them and take them at the same time. Take them at least 30 minutes before or after caffeine or protein. Try taking on an empty stomach or with carbs — however you feel your best afterwards.

ANSWER B:
We recommend taking 2 scoops twice a day for optimal results.
Also, if you separate Cardio Miracle from protein (30 minutes before and about an hour after), you’ll make more nitric oxide. Because the amino acids in Cardio Miracle and the amino acids in protein compete for the same binding spots in the cells. If you separate them, there will be more open binding spots and you make more nitric oxide.
Often I let people know they can take more than 2 scoops twice a day because it is fully bioavailable and can be treated as food. For example, when I am traveling, I like to take 2 scoops before I leave the house, 2 scoops at the airport, and 2 scoops when I get where I’m going.
I also reiterate that some people take extra if they are hoping to support better blood pressure or if they are recovering from surgery.
I often share that with my airport trick I literally haven’t gotten sick in 2 years (as long as I’ve been working at Cardio Miracle). I also do this when the kids come home with colds, and it’s been surprisingly effective.

In our landmark scientific studies (which you can find here: https://cardiomiracle.com/pages/studies) we have found that taking your Cardio Miracle first thing, on an empty stomach, is one of the best ways to begin the day nutritionally.
As the author of this article, I have experimented for many years regarding the best times to drink my Cardio Miracle for the program I am currently enjoying.
I practice intermittent fasting and generally don’t eat until about 2 PM, with a meal window until about 6 PM. My workouts usually occur during that window. I will take my Cardio Miracle in the early afternoon prior to my workout as a type of pre-workout drink.
The nitric oxide created in my system provides an incredible boost to my workout. While at the gym I often drink Cardio Miracle throughout the session.
After returning home and consuming a protein shake, and later eating my final meal of the day, I will drink my final Cardio Miracle serving around 9 PM, about three hours after my final meal. This helps promote recovery, circulation, and restful sleep while my body rejuvenates overnight.
What I have just written may surprise some people, but I personally drink two servings three times per day. For some individuals that may be more than they need, but it helps give me the endurance and resilience I need to maintain a demanding schedule.
I have been drinking Cardio Miracle for over a decade since my father, John Hewlett, formulated it. Over the years I have discovered different routines that work best for my lifestyle.
John himself drinks it six to eight times per day. He’s known to tell the family to “Double Up!” whenever we are tired, in pain, or even feeling discouraged.
Ironically, we also know people who take only half a serving per day and feel fantastic. Everyone’s body responds differently.
The most important step is consulting with your physician or healthcare practitioner and experimenting responsibly to determine what works best for you.
Thank you for enjoying Cardio Miracle — the world’s #1 nitric oxide and vitamin D3 supplement. We look forward to hearing about your health journey.
