Get a brief rundown on what nitric oxide does for you!

What is Nitric Oxide? 

Nitric oxide (NO) is a signaling molecule. A signaling molecule is responsible for transmitting information between cells in your body. NO is formed from the amino acid, l-arginine. Amino acid is necessary for the body to make proteins. Nitric oxide is a proven regulator in the vascular, immune, and nervous systems. There are two different pathways for nitric oxide; l-arginine, and nitrate pathway. 

L-Arginine Pathway

Arginine is a precursor of nitric oxide. When combined with l-citrulline found in our best selling product, M3 Ultimate Nitric Oxide Nutrition, the benefits are optimal. Once consumed nitric oxide is produced from those amino acids. 

Nitrate Pathway 

Nitrates can be found in a variety of different superfoods such as beets, arugula, rhubarb, and watermelon. Once consumed the nitrates convert to nitric oxide in the body. This can be assisted in the new, and recently reformulated Nox3 Greens Ultimate Nitric Oxide Superfood, made with 26 powerful superfoods, and Nox3 Beets Ultimate Nitric Oxide Lozenge.

Nitric Oxide Benefits 

In simple terms, nitric oxide relaxes your inner muscles of your blood vessels, causing them to widen, increasing blood flow, and lowering blood pressure. Thus, proving to be a regulator in the vascular system. In the immune system, NO is secreted to fight bacteria and parasites. Regarding the nervous system, nitric oxide works as a neurotransmitter to control functions ranging from digestion, blood flow, memory, and vision. 

Nitric oxide prevents heart disease, increases stamina, decreases muscle soreness, and boosts exercise performance. Benefits found in our top products include; circulatory wellness, cellular energy, nitric oxide production, muscle and bone recovery, athletic performance, vitality, vision, brain function, digestion, and energy. 

Beetroot is one of the top superfoods to boost nitric oxide levels. Found in many of our top products!
