This episode features Dr. Nathan Bryan, an expert in Nitric Oxide who specializes in reversing metabolic disease with the natural production of Nitric Oxide.
Dr Bryan has spent over 20 years researching the molecule of Nitric Oxide and it's impact on cardiovascular health as well as the prevent of chronic health conditions, namely heart attacks, strokes, dementia and Alzheimer's.
In this episode Dr Bryan discusses the two ways our body produces Nitric Oxide via the Nitric Oxide Synthase pathway and the enterosalivary nitrate-nitrite-nitric oxide (NO) pathway. Dr Bryan explains how both Nitric Oxide pathways promote vasodilation (the widening of the arteries) and help with blood pressure regulation.
We discuss how you lose Nitric Oxide production as we age through western medicine, diet, and lifestyle factors. Dr Bryan discusses the dangers of using antiseptic mouthwash on the oral microbiome, the use of antacids and the connection to dementia, heart attacks and stroke and dietary protocols to increase Nitric Oxide production.
This episode is important for anyone who seeks to understand the cause of chronic disease, and for those who seek to optimise their heart and cardiovascular function. You will learn the science of the four hallmarks of chronic inflammation which is leading to heart attacks, stroke and dementia, the science of how Nitric Oxide prevents all chronic disease, and how to naturally increase Nitric Oxide production.
