Lower Your Blood Pressure Naturally By Raising Nitric Oxide
8 hours ago
- High blood pressure is a symptom, not a diagnosis: A high reading is your body flagging a deeper issue, and low nitric oxide is one under-recognized factor that may contribute. Standard medications manage the number without addressing that root cause.
- Your plate feeds the pathway: Nitrates in beets, arugula, and leafy greens are converted by the bacteria in a healthy mouth into nitrite, then into nitric oxide with the help of stomach acid. Nitric oxide signals the smooth muscle in your artery walls to relax, and it also acts as a natural anticoagulant.
- Two hidden blockers, one free helper: Antiseptic mouthwash and acid-blocking medications can interrupt the conversion from food to nitric oxide, while the amino acids L-arginine, L-citrulline, and L-taurine feed nitric oxide synthase, and UVA sunlight on your skin supports your body’s own production.
