This episode features Dr Nathan Bryan, an expert in Nitric Oxide who specialises 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 cardiovacular 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 widerning 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.
Dr Bryan also shares the 6 ways to naturally increase Nitric Oxide production through lifestyle factors, exercise and also the use of exogenous Nitric Oxide supplements to help activate the NOS enzyme and naturally increase Nitric Oxide in the blood vessels.
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.

About Dr Nathan Bryan
Dr. Bryan is an international leader in molecular medicine and nitric oxide biochemistry.
Specifically, Dr. Bryan was the first to describe nitrite and nitrate as indispensable nutrients required for optimal cardiovascular health. He was the first to demonstrate and discover an endocrine function of nitric oxide via the formation of S-nitrosoglutathione and inorganic nitrite.
Dr. Bryan has been involved in nitric oxide research for the past 18 years and has made many seminal discoveries in the field. These discoveries and findings have transformed the development of safe and effective functional bioactive natural products in the treatment and prevention of human disease and may provide the basis for new preventive or therapeutic
Dr. Bryan has published a number of highly cited papers and authored or edited 5 books.
