Product Description Eighty-one million Americans have cardiovascular disease, the arterial damage that leads to the heart attacks and strokes that account for 36 percent of all deaths in the U.S. But few people know that by boosting the body s levels of a single molecule nitric oxide (NO) you can help prevent, control and even reverse cardiovascular disease.

In this groundbreaking book, nitric oxide expert Nathan Bryan, PhD, and natural healer Janet Zand, OMD, tell you all about nitric oxide, the miracle molecule that can dramatically improve your health. What the molecule is. How it keeps your arteries young and flexible, regulating blood pressure, and stopping the buildup of artery-clogging plaque. Why most people over 40-years-old have severely diminished levels of NO, and what to do about it. They also show how the molecule works to prevent and treat other chronic conditions, such as diabetes, arthritis, asthma, osteoporosis, and erectile dysfunction. And how it strengthens the immune system and energizes the brain.

The book includes dozens of easy-to-follow tips for increasing NO levels, using NO-boosting foods, supplements, easy exercise, and other natural methods like deep breathing, naps, hot baths, acupuncture even watching movies that make you laugh

"The Nitric Oxide (NO) Solution" provides you with the best and simplest solution to the problems of cardiovascular disease, aging, and ill health.

There is mounting evidence that the established paradigm of nitric oxide (NO) biochemistry, from formation through NO synthases, over interaction with soluble guanylyl cyclase, to eventual disposal as nitrite/nitrate, represents only part of a richer chemistry through which NO elicits biological signalling. Additional pathways have been suggested that include interaction of NO-derived metabolites with thiols and metals to form S-nitrosothiols (RSNOs) and metal nitrosyls. Despite the overwhelming attention paid in this regard to RSNOs, little is known about the stability of these species, their significance outside the circulation, and whether other nitros(yl)ation products are of equal importance. Our study further reveals that all NO-derived products are highly dynamic, have fairly short lifetimes, and are linked to tissue oxygenation and redox state. Moreover, tissue nitrite can serve as a significant extravascular pool of NO during brief periods of hypoxia. These findings vastly expand our understanding of the fate of NO in vivo and provide a framework for further exploration of the significance of nitrosative events in redox-sensing and signaling.
