Dr. Louis Ignarro discovered "the atom" of cardiovascular
health--a tiny molecule called Nitric Oxide. NO, as it is
known by chemists, is a signaling molecule produced by the
body, and is a vasodilator that helps control blood flow to
every part of the body. Dr. Ignarro's findings led to the
development of Viagra. Nitric Oxide has a beneficial effect
on the cardiovascular system as well.
NO relaxes and
enlarges the blood vessels, prevents blood clots that
trigger strokes and heart attacks, and regulates blood
pressure and the accumulation of plaque in the blood
vessels. Dr. Ignarro's current research indicates that
Nitric Oxide may help lower cholesterol by facilitating the
actions of statin drugs like Lipitor.
The goal of
the regimen presented in NO More Heart Disease is to
age proof the cardiovascular system, keeping the vascular
network clean and elastic through enhanced NO productivity.
The plan is easy-to-follow without extreme lifestyle
adjustments, involving taking supplements to stimulate
Nitric Oxide production, incorporating NO friendly food into
the diet, and a moderate exercise program.
