Nitric Oxide
Quick summary of the science :
Nitric oxide is a gasotransmitter, which is produced by your body. Nitric oxide production involves different enzyme isoforms and non-enzymatic pathways. It is a highly reactive molecule and participates in virtually every cellular and organ function in the body. Among it’s most notable roles, is it acts as a vasodilator i.e. it causes blood vessels to widen.
Swooshing with mouth wash will increase your blood pressure
Swooshing, stops the conversion of nitrate to nitrite by the bacteria living in your mouth – since nitrite help dilate blood vessels, your blood pressure rises
How to get those glucose gates up – so you take up more sugar
When you’re insulin resistant, sugar can’t leave the blood, because the glucose gates, normally used by the sugar molecules, are missing. Gate moving needs…
A little sun can let the pressure out
Your blood pressure is UP. Your instinct says, this CAN be fixed, with a little sun, sea and surf. You’re half right. All you need is the sun, to destress
Is insulin resistance a delivery problem, not a hearing problem ?

Want to overcome insulin resistance? Roll out the welcome mat
When skeletal muscles, know insulin is coming, they move their GLUT4 gates from the periphery to front and centre, with the gates in place, glucose gets in.
How to juice up the heart battery so it pumps in a crisis
When a heart attack strikes, the nitric oxide battery is the key to calming the panic and getting oxygen to the tissue minimizing damage. To charge your battery – move
Is humming the cure for chronic sinusitis ?
The cells lining the sinus cavity defend themselves through nitric oxide production. By humming – you can boost nitric oxide levels, shore-ing up the defences
