The Truth About Nitric Oxide

Описание: Nitric oxide is a cellular signaling molecule that's closely tied into a number of critical processes in the body. It’s involved with everything from the binding and release of oxygen and hemoglobin, to inhibiting inflammation. It’s even linked to the destruction of viruses, parasites and malignant cells in the airways and lungs. In addition, nitric oxide is a part of the system that regulates blood pressure.

Nitric oxide is produced in a number of body tissues but nitric oxide is also produced in the nasal passages. When we nasal breathe, our bodies can make use of this amazing substance, but as soon as we start breathing through the mouth, that’s just no longer possible.

Research has linked abnormal nitric oxide levels with some serious health concerns such as high blood pressure, heart failure, atherosclerosis and strokes. Many of my patients also have sleep apnea, which is linked to a number of similar health concerns. Mouth breathing is a common factor for all of these issues, which means it’s the red flag that many health practitioners often overlook.

To put it simply, breathing through your mouth bypasses important parts of the breathing process, which is why we see so many negative health effects around mouth breathing.

In this video, I'll take a look at nitric oxide, and clarify how it can affect your health.
