A cardiologist’s words left me shocked:

“You age because your body stops producing nitric oxide. Without it, your blood pressure rises, erections fail and Alzheimer’s begins.”

Here’s a 5-step plan to boost it naturally:

1. Stop using mouthwash
0:50
2
But first, what is Nitric Oxide?

It’s a natural gas your body makes to lower blood pressure, keep blood vessels open, and reduce stress.

Without it, energy crashes, libido fades, and the brain begins to malfunction.
3
By age 30, your NO starts to slow down.

By 40, you’ve lost about 50%.

By 70, as much as 80% is gone.

And that’s not even the craziest part…

Your NO levels decline with aging:

That shows up as:
• Fatigue
• Brain fog
• Low stamina
• Zero sex drive
• Cold hands & feet
• Erectile dysfunction

If you have even 2 of these, your NO levels are already crashing.

So here’s how I fixed it:
5
Fix #1: Threw my mouthwash away

Most people don’t know this, but every rinse damages your oral microbiome.

Mouthwash kills the bacteria that convert dietary nitrates into nitrites (the first step to making nitric oxide).

Fix #2: Exercise regularly

Movement forces your blood vessels to stay flexible.

This keeps arteries wide and responsive, lowering stiffness and hypertension. Exercise also skyrockets nitric oxide production.

Tip: Prioritize HIIT and aerobic work for the biggest surges.

+ Supplementation

Due to my busy lifestyle, I struggled to stay consistent to my habits.

That’s why I started supplementing it myself…

I stacked exercise with proven nitric oxide boosters:

• L-citrulline: Extends stamina, improves erectile function
• L-arginine: Improves vascular flow and muscle pumps

I started paying attention to nitric oxide once I realized circulation affects energy, blood flow, and inflammation over time.

Most people don’t think about it until something feels off.

This is the nitric oxide formula I’ve personally been using:

Fix #3: I practiced nasal breathwork

The paranasal sinuses naturally produce NO.

When you breathe through your nose, you draw this NO-rich air down into your lungs (I used mouth tape for extra help).

Studies showed that nasal breathing improves oxygen delivery by 10%:

Fix #4: Consume nitrate-rich foods

Nitrates convert into nitric oxide, raising levels even when your enzyme system is weaker.

Best sources I use:
• Beetroots
• Arugula
• Raw spinach
• Pomegranate
• Dark leafy greens
12
BONUS TIP: Sunlight exposure

UV light triggers nitric oxide release from your skin.

It dilates the blood vessels, lowers blood pressure and improves circulation.

(All I did was 10-30mins of direct exposure every morning, that’s it).
