Sources to Promote Nitric Oxide Production

Did you know you produce nitric oxide by simply breathing? When breathing through your nose, your nasal passages release nitric oxide, which helps to widen blood vessels. This can help improve oxygen circulation in your body. Since nitric oxide is an unstable molecule that can degrade quickly in the bloodstream, it needs to be replenished.1 This can be done through consuming antioxidants, which is how antioxidation influences nitric oxide production. Besides breathing and antioxidants, beets are high in nitrates, which as previously mentioned, convert into nitric oxide. L-arginine is an amino acid, also known as a protein building block, naturally found in a variety of foods such as red meat, fish and dairy products. L-arginine produces nitric oxide in the body, as well as L-citrulline. L-citrulline is also an amino acid that’s found in meat and legumes. The easiest way to get these nutrients to help produce nitric oxide–besides food–is with supplements.

A Proprietary Combination of Ingredients to Improve Blood Flow

Nitric Oxide Plus improves blood flow through these ingredients: beet root powder, L-arginine, L-arginine Alpha-ketoglutarate and L-citrulline. Beet root powder is rich in nitrates which get converted to nitrite, which then gets converted to nitric oxide. L-arginine is an amino acid that stimulates the dilation of blood vessels and nitric oxide production. L-citrulline, another amino acid, has been indicated to be a second nitric oxide donor since it can be converted to L-arginine in the kidneys.2 Magnesium relaxes muscles to allow better blood flow. Magnesium is a mineral that can be found in greens, nuts, seeds, dry beans, whole grains, wheat germ, wheat and oat bran. Horse chestnut is commonly used to improve vein health, as it contains aescin, which may increase blood flow in veins and thin the blood.3 A supplement that can help support nitric oxide is important, and with our latest formulation, we want to be able to give you the convenience of a powder supplement for healthy blood flow support.
