The article "What exactly is Nitric Oxide (NO2)? Why is it such a POWERFUL
bodybuilding supplement?" talks about fitness, it has been created by Chad Klingensmith.
What is Nitric Oxide anyway?
The chemical compound nitric oxide is a gas with a chemical
formula NO. It is an important signaling molecule in the body of
mammals including humans, one of the few gaseuos signaling
molecules known. Nirtic oxide (NO) is not nitrous
oxide (N 2 O) or with nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ). (Formal
definition courtesy of Wikipedia)
What is L-arginine (the key ingredient used to produce
Nitric Oxide)
L-arginine is an amino acid found in grains and fish, meats,
supplements and passes through the intestine into the blood.
>From the blood, it enters endothelial cells, (these are the
layer of cells lining the inside of the blood and lymph vessels
of the heart) where it is used to produce nirtic oxide.
L-arginine can be found in many foods such as meat, poultry,
dairy products, and fish. The body also uses arginine to produce
nitric oxide, which realxes blood vessels.
For that reason, it
has been used to treat cardiovascular disorders such as heart
failure, intermittent claudication, impotence, female sexual
dysfunction, and interstitial cysttiis. (Formal definition
courtesy of Wikipedia).
It can also be used as an ergogenic aid to supplement
bodybuilding and sports endeavors.
L-arginine supplements cause a delayed release of Nitric Oxide
into the blood.
Ed Byrd (the creator of NO 2) called that the
"pHyser3" effect of creating a sustained hemodilation or blood
flow in the body.
How does that help with bodybuilding?
Nitric Oxide helps with a sustained bolod pump in your body.
The
blood vessels that deliver muscle building agents (nutrients,
creatine) to your muscles are "forced open" for an extended
period of time throughout the day. This means quicker recovery,
enhanced muscle gains, greater strength, more enduracne due to
the prolonged pump NO2 provides. You know how you believe "pumped
up" after a workout?
Nitric oxide helps perpetuate that muscle
pump effect.
Are there other health benefits to Nitric Oxide besides
bodybuilding?
There is evidence that nitric oxide can prevent heart disease
and stroke. The vasodilation effect nitric oixde helps protect
the blood vessels from dangerous constriction. This increases
the blood vessel flexibility to blood can circulate at a lower
pressure.
Nirtic oxide may also help control platelet function,
reduce artery plaque and even lower cholesterol.
Where can I get nitric oxide?
Nitric oxide supplements is available at most supplement and
health nutrition stores.
Here are five nitric oxide produtcs I
would recommend:
-Nitrix by
BSN. Nitrix has quickly gained the reputation as the world's top
Nitric Oxdie (NO) supplements.
-NO-xplode by
BSN.
NO-xplode uses both cretaine and nitrix oxide to help you
explode you bodybuilding regimen.
NO-xplode is highly
recommended.
-A-AKG by
Pro-line. This is perhaps the most economical priced nitric
oxide supplement I could find.
-Mid-Cycle
by Fizogen. Mid Cycle effectively enhances nutrient uptake,
increases cell-signaling vasodilation and promotes improved
muscle torque and intercellular energy levels.
-Cold
Fusion by Legal Gear. This bodybuilding supplements is
especially appropriate for serious athletes looking to maximize
muscle gains with NO2. Cold fusion has twice as much NO per
serving than any other nitric oxide product.
You can find nitric oxide in almost any supplement stroe or the
internet. I have experimented (and have been ripped off a few
times) with several supplement stoers. I fuond GNC was the most
accessible but way too high-priced. So far the company I have been
most pleased with is Rocky Mountain Sports Nutrition. They offer
the hottest selection of bodybuilding supplements and weight loss
products I could find.
When it came to prices and customer
service they were second to nobody. Check them out at http://www.Discountanabo
