Nitric Pro – Stimulate your levels of Nitric Oxide and reduce your Cardio-Vascular Risk amongst other Benefits
The purpose of Nitric Pro is designed to enhance and deliver a strong release of Nitric Oxide (NO) in the body. The biological functions of Nitric Oxide were only discovered in the 1980’s and caused quite a stir in the scientific community. In 1992, Nitric Oxide was named "Molecule of the Year" by the prestigious American journal Science, in addition a Nitric Oxide Society was founded, and a scientific journal devoted entirely to Nitric Oxide was established. In 1998, the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to Murad, Furchgott and Ignarro for their discoveries of the role of Nitric Oxide in cardiovascular physiology. Research into Nitric Oxide still continues apace yielding over 300 research papers a year!
So what is Nitric Oxide?
Despite being a simple molecule, Nitric Oxide is a fundamental player in the fields of neuroscience, physiology and immunology. It is one of the few gaseous signalling molecules known and has critically important roles to play in a whole variety of vital bodily processes. Obviously, with the wealth of studies devoted to Nitric Oxide that continue to be published, our understanding of Nitric Oxide is constantly deepening and, in this short article, we cannot hope to address all the available information at length. But some of the key points about Nitric Oxide to note are as follows:
- Nitric Oxide acts as a vasodiliator. It relaxes the smooth muscle of the inner lining of blood vessel walls, (the endothelium) which results in dilation of the blood vessels and improves the blood flow throughout the body. In fact in some sources, Nitric Oxide is referred to as a ‘Endothelium-Derived Relaxing Factor’ or “EDRF”. By acting as a vasodilator, Nitric Oxide therefore not only controls blood flow to tissues, but is also essential in the regulation of blood pressure
- The vasodilatory actions of Nitric Oxide also play a key role in the renal control of extra cellular fluid homeostasis. Homeostasis refers to the body's ability to regulate physiologically its inner environment to ensure its stability in response to fluctuations in the outside environment and the weather
- The vasodilatory effect of Nitric Oxide also plays a role in the development and maintenance of erections. Vasodilation of blood vessels supplying the two columns of erectile tissue that run down the shaft of the penis, (the corpus cavernosum), results in more blood flowing in to the penis causing an erection. This action forms the basis of medicines designed to treat erectile dysfunction such as Viagra
- Nitric oxide regulates the binding and release of oxygen to haemoglobin (the iron-containing, oxygen- transporting protein found in red blood cells). This, in turn, means that Nitric Oxide controls the supply of oxygen to mitochondria (the powerhouses found in cells that generate energy). It also stimulates the production of new mitochondria
- Nitric oxide is implicated in the immune system. It kills virus-infected cells, tumor cells and parasitic organisms by inactivating respiratory chain enzymes in their mitochondria
- Nitric oxide serves as a neurotransmitter between nerve cells. Neurotransmitters are chemicals that allow nerve cells to communicate with one another. It is thought that Nitric Oxide is implicated in memory and is known to be an important neurotransmitter in various parts of the gastrointestinal tract
The Benefits of Nitric Pro
Using Nitric Pro regularly to stimulate Nitric Oxide release can therefore provide you with a whole host of benefits including:
- Helping to lower your risk of developing cardio vascular diseases. In particular Nitric Pro can help to:
1. Soften the arteries
2. Lower blood pressure and normalize high blood pressure conditions
3. Lower serum levels of cholesterol and prevent LDL (the so called ‘bad cholesterol”) from oxidizing. Oxidation of cholesterol leads to cholesterol becoming "sticky" which in turn means that cholesterol starts to form plaque in the walls of the arteries
4. Improve blood flow by acting as an anticoagulant and stopping blood platelets from clumping together
- Helping to improve the strength and duration of penile erection
- Reducing your risk of developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis) – a health problem that is often associated with air travel
- Reducing your risk of developing diabetes by helping to regulate insulin secretion by the pancreas
- Helping to heal haemorrhoids and anal fissures by relaxing the hypertonic sphincter muscles
- Easing breathing and assisting the lungs airways which in turn can help lung disorders
- Stimulating the release of human growth hormone, a hormone that is important for reducing body fat whilst at the same time boosting lean muscle mass and bone density
- Helping to improve hair quality by generating more blood flow and therefore nutrition to the hair follicles
The body produces Nitric Oxide from Amino Acid, Arginine and Oxygen. Nitric Pro provides you with a boost to these building blocks – each scoop of Nitric Pro contains 3500 mg of Arginine, along with other natural ingredients that are known to support and enhances its role.
Nitric Pro is also effective very quickly. Tests have demonstrated that arterial stiffness can be lowered within an hour, making it ideal for those in need of significant relief fast, especially important for those in a risk group for a cardiovascular or stroke event.
And all this from a powder that can simply be stirred into water or milk to make an easy to consume drink. No wonder Nitric Pro is one of the best products available to boost Nitric Oxide release.
