Nitric Oxide for Erectile Dysfunction and Overall Health
Nitric Oxide (NO), occurs naturally both inside and outside of the body, and acts as a vasodilator inside the body. As a result, NO helps keep arteries open, prevents plaque buildup and improves blood flow throughout the body including the penile erections. In other words, Nitric Oxide crucial for treating erectile dysfunction.
Nitric Oxide and Aging
The body produces Nitric Oxide from the amino acids L-arginine and L-citrulline. But after the age of 30, Nitric Oxide production declines by 20% every 10 years. Therefore, by age 65 most men lose about 85% of their ability to make NO.
Benefits of Nitric Oxide
Nitric oxide plays many important roles in the body from improving blood flow to neurotransmission and memory. Most importantly, NO helps relax smooth muscle cells in the walls of blood vessels improving blood flow. As a result, increasing Nitric Oxide levels may improve cardiovascular health, help with hypertension and erectile dysfunction.
Nitric Oxide and Erectile Dysfunction
When sexually stimulated, the blood vessels in the penis relax and dilate and fill with blood resulting in an erection. Therefore, the crucial factor to getting and maintaining erections depends on the availability of NO to dilate the blood vessels of the erectile tissue.
Boosting NO levels improves blood flow to the penis and may decrease symptoms of ED and enhance effectiveness of sildenafil and ED medication.
How to Increase Nitric Oxide Levels?
Anyone of the age of 30 benefits from boosting their Nitric Oxide levels by supplementation with the precursor amino acids, L-arginine and L-citrulline. But the body requires other molecules along with these amino acids to produce no. as a result, just trying to supplement with L-arginine alone cane actually make things worse. One needs to take a medical grade NO supplement, such as
Berkley Life.In addition, one can boost NO levels by increasing consumption of food containing nitrates such as leafy vegetables such as kale, arugula, spinach, cabbage and beets. Lastly, regular exercise improves the body’s ability to produce Nitric Oxide.
