Discover most common questions
What are nasal strips and how do they work?
Nasal strips are adhesive bands designed to gently lift the skin on your nose and open the nasal passages, increasing airflow. BOOST N.O.S nasal strips use a high-flex performance material that creates a secure hold and maximizes airflow whether you’re working out, sleeping, or recovering. They support deeper breathing by improving the body’s ability to produce nitric oxide, a molecule linked to better cardiovascular function and endurance.
Who should use Boost N.O.S nasal strips?
These strips are for breathers of all types: athletes, runners, lifters, snorers, sleep hackers, and anyone looking to unlock more oxygen, improve stamina, or reduce congestion. BOOST strips are especially useful during workouts, high-intensity training, sleep, and stressful situations that require clearer breathing.
How do I apply Boost N.O.S nasal strips correctly?
Start with clean, dry skin. Place the strip across the bridge of your nose so that each end rests on the sides of your nostrils. Press down firmly to activate the adhesive. Wait 10 seconds to allow the strip to secure fully. For best results, apply 5–10 minutes before activity or sleep.
Can I use nasal strips during a workout or run?
Absolutely. Our nasal strips are built to perform. The sweat-proof, high-flex hold keeps the strip in place even during the most intense training. Whether you’re on a treadmill, climbing hills, or doing burpees, Boost N.O.S won’t budge.
How long can I wear a nasal strip?
Each strip is designed for single use and can be worn for up to 12 hours. After use, gently peel off and discard. Do not reuse strips.
Do nasal strips help with athletic performance?
Yes. By improving airflow through your nose, Boost N.O.S nasal strips increase oxygen intake and support natural nitric oxide production. This enhances circulation, improves endurance, and can reduce perceived effort during high-intensity workouts.
Can nasal strips improve my sleep?
Definitely. Boost N.O.S strips help open your nasal passages, which can reduce snoring and improve breathing during sleep. Better airflow often results in more restful, uninterrupted sleep and helps you wake up feeling recharged.
How do nasal strips support nitric oxide production?
Nitric oxide (NO) is produced in the nasal passages. When your nose is blocked or constricted, you lose access to this powerful molecule. BOOST nasal strips improve airflow, supporting natural NO production which contributes to better heart health, faster recovery, and more efficient breathing.
What are Boost N.O.S nasal strips made of?
Our strips are crafted from hypoallergenic, medical-grade materials. They’re latex-free, drug-free, and designed for all skin types. The black matte finish is sweatproof and breathable—stylish and functional.
Are there any side effects?
Nasal strips are safe for daily use. Occasionally, users with sensitive skin may experience minor irritation. Always remove gently and avoid applying to broken or sunburned skin.
Are nasal strips safe for kids or older adults?
Yes, but always consult a doctor for children under 12. For seniors, these strips can help improve nighttime breathing and oxygen delivery—just be sure the skin is clean and dry before application.
How many strips come in each Boost N.O.S tin?
Each tin contains 40 high-performance nasal strips. Our 3-pack bundle includes 120 strips across three tins.
How does the Max Air Clubs subscription work?
You receive a fresh tin of 40 strips each month. Subscribers save 10% and can cancel anytime—no commitments, just consistent airflow.
How fast do you ship?
Orders are typically processed within 1–2 business days. Standard U.S. shipping takes 3–5 business days. Need it faster? Upgrade at checkout.
Can I exchange my tin or bundle?
Since nasal strips are considered hygienic products, we can’t accept opened items. But if your order arrived damaged or incorrect, we’ll make it right—fast.
What if my strip doesn’t stick?
Ensure your nose is dry and oil-free before applying. If the issue persists, contact our support team and we’ll send a fresh pack or troubleshoot with you.
What is N.O.S and Why Is It So Important?
N.O.S stands for Nitric Oxide Strips—and they’re your shortcut to better breathing, better performance, and better sleep.
But the real magic behind “N.O.S” is nitric oxide (NO), a naturally produced molecule in your body that plays a crucial role in health and human performance. When you breathe through your nose, nitric oxide is released in your nasal passages—and that’s where Boost N.O.S comes in.
More Airflow, More Oxygen:
Nitric oxide helps relax blood vessels, boosting circulation and oxygen delivery to your muscles and brain.
Improved Endurance & Recovery:
It supports better athletic performance by enhancing stamina, reducing fatigue, and speeding up recovery.
Mental Clarity & Focus:
Nitric oxide acts as a neurotransmitter, aiding brain function, memory, and alertness—especially under stress.
Heart Health:
NO promotes lower blood pressure and protects arteries from stiffness and inflammation.
