When most people hear Nitric Oxide, they probably think of the laughing gas at the dentist, or “The Fast and the Furious.” But Nitric Oxide—which is related to Nitrous Oxide—isn’t the molecule responsible for giving cars a burst of energy, but for facilitating communication between the cells in your body. One of its main functions is increasing blood flow by dilating blood vessels, so it’s taken by athletes and non-athletes alike for its cardiovascular benefits, and increased performance in the gym and even—ahem—in the bedroom.
There have been thousands of studies on Nitric Oxide, and it’s so important that it was named “Molecule of the Year” by Science magazine in 1992. In 1998, the Nobel Prize for Medicine was awarded to the three doctors who discovered its role as a cardiovascular signalling molecule.
Nitric Oxide (NO) works by signalling the smooth muscle of your blood vessels to relax, which dilates the vessels and causes increased blood flow. This is great for athletes and bodybuilders who want to get their blood pumping as much as possible during workouts, but also for people with plaque buildup in their arteries and other circulation problems.
Nitric Oxide supplements don’t actually contain the gas, but contain L-Arginine, an amino acid that aids in your body’s production of NO. Arginine is also found in foods such as crab, spinach, sesame seeds and turkey. ARNOX Advantage contains 5,000 mg of L-Arginine in a highly bioavailable form, as well as L-Citrulline, another amino acid that further helps your body convert L-Arginine to NO.
Because NO only lasts a few seconds in the bloodstream, ARNOX also contains helpful antioxidants, such as Vitamin C, Vitamin D3 and Vitamin E that help increase the duration of NO in the bloodstream. ARNOX also contains potent herbal nutrients from hawthorne berry, horse chestnut, green coffee, and redflower ragleaf, which are are herbs that further help with arterial health.
With a delicious berry flavor, ARNOX Advantage is a great-tasting way to boost your NO levels, and support athletic performance, a healthy heart and increased circulation.
