Nitric Oxide History
The supplement that I chose was Nitric Oxide. This is a very up and coming supplement in the industry and although not many studies have been done on the long term effects many more gym goers are jumping on the band wagon and experiencing the benefits of it.
Some history on Nitric Oxide is that it was first discovered in 1772 by Joseph Priestly, who called it "nitrous air," nitric oxide was first discovered as a colorless, toxic gas. Unfortunately, the classification of toxid gas and air pollutant continued to be the only labels nitric oxide was afforded until 1987, when it was shown to actually be produced naturally in the body.was named Molecule of the Year by Science in 1992, this is an annual award made by the journal Science for the …show more content…
Some uses of NO include : blood pressure can be lowered while both blood flow and blood vessel diameter are improved. Nitric Oxide also helps in the formation of blood clots. You find endothelial cells that help in the controlling and relaxing of blood vessels, and this is helped with the use of Nitric Oxide. With widened blood vessels, this can offer protection to the heart from damage and increase the supply of oxygen to the body. It is also possible to establish regular electrical impulses and Nitric Oxidermal rhythm to the heart through Nitric Oxide
Weight loss :Inside the cells of the body are tiny mitochondria, the places where food and oxygen are turned into energy. The mitochondria is where all fat is burned, in addition to generating almost all of a persons energy used and controlling cellular metabolism. Research is showing that nitric oxide not only stimulates the creation of new mitochondria, but also may make each individual mitochondrion larger, which helps burn even more fat and therefore could result in weight …show more content…
Most individuals will naturally consume between 1-2 grams of L-Arginine in a given day (closer to the 2 gram mark if you eat a lot of red meat). This needs to be taken into consideration as the total amount of L-Arginine consumption is best limited to 9 grams a day,
Some effects of taking to much Nitric Oxide are Nausea, Mild headaches, Change in blood pressure, Diarrhea. Most of these side effects are actually pretty common when Nitric Oxide is taken in excess so one has to be careful in how much they
