Awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1998, nitric oxide (NO) is the body’s primary signaling molecule for vasodilation—the widening of blood vessels to allow unrestricted oxygen and nutrient flow.
By age 50, the endothelial cells lining your blood vessels produce less than half the nitric oxide they generated in your twenties. This micro-vascular slowdown reduces blood flow to extremity joints, brain cells, and vital organs, contributing to lethargy, brain fog, and chronic muscular tension.
Restoring natural endothelial function through dietary nitrates (such as concentrated beetroot extract, leafy greens, and citrus bioflavonoids) helps restore smooth, unrestricted circulatory flow throughout the entire vascular tree.
