Vascular Health - The Glycocalyx & Nitric Oxide

Nitric Oxide is the most powerful compound in your body that you have never heard of. The link between nitric oxide and our cardiovascular system won a Nobel prize in 1998.  Since then we have come to learn that it is key to managing blood sugar, heart disease, weight loss, cholesterol, enhance athletic performance, erectile function and so much more. Nitric Oxide (NO) is a colorless gas that is produced in our body. By age 40, our NO production has declined by as much as 50%.  While there is no nitric oxide pill, you can eat foods that are high in nitrates and therefore promote our body’s ability to generate nitric oxide. There is however a "nitrate" capsule that you can take that will deliver the raw material for making nitric oxide. 

The Glycocalyx is the valuable lining of your blood vessels that is key to protecting your vessels from plaque formation. It is dependent on nitrates in your diet to stay healthy and the converse is that sugar in your diet will destroy it. This video walks through the key elements needed to secure vascular health and you will learn that YOU have the power to REVERSE vascular plaque. Your cardiologist doesn't have that ability as there are no DRUGS that reverse plaque but your lifestyle CAN.
