Each year, approximately 700,000 lives are lost to cardiovascular disease. Shockingly, half of these individuals experience no prior symptoms before an event. Low levels of nitric oxide—a molecule that promotes vasodilation and smooth blood flow—could be largely responsible, and by recognizing the signs of deficiency, we can take steps to raise our levels and lower our risk.
Today on The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru sits down with Dr. Nathan Bryan to talk about why nitric oxide is the single most underrated molecule when it comes to our short- and long-term health. Dhru and Dr. Bryan discuss the link between low nitric oxide levels and heart disease, sexual health, Alzheimer’s, high blood pressure, and metabolic health. They also discuss what gets in the way of optimal nitric oxide levels, specific foods and lifestyle choices that can boost your nitric oxide production, the different signs of nitric oxide deficiency, how to test your nitric oxide levels, and so much more.
Dr. Nathan Bryan is an international leader in molecular medicine and nitric oxide biochemistry. He’s been involved in nitric oxide research for the past 20 years, and his many seminal discoveries have resulted in dozens of US and international patents. Dr. Bryan’s discoveries have led to product and technology innovations that have improved patient care worldwide. He is the founder of Nitric Oxide Innovations, LLC, a privately held, clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company that is actively engaged in the discovery and development of nitric oxide-based therapies.
