Adaptogens, Nitric Oxide, and Stress Treatment
NO or Nitric Oxide can be considered one of the most important molecules in the body. Communication between cells in the body depend on Nitric Oxide for direction. Some of the busiest cells in the human body include immune system cells, blood cells, and brain cells.
Nitric oxide (NO) helps keep our body functioning properly. It helps maintain a normal blood pressure, helps in clear thinking, and is even responsible for helping our body fight infections. NO also helps prevent atherosclerosis and blood clots. Diseases associated with aging can, in many instances, be associated with a deficiency of Nitric oxide.
A study looking at Nitric oxide activity was recently conducted on adaptogens and adaptogen blends. Some blends were found to contain natural nitric oxide metabolites. These metabolites help normalize the balance of Nitric oxide in the human body. High levels of antioxidants along with molecules that could adapt to stress were also identified in certain formulas.
Parts of Siberia and Asia that have some of the coldest and harshest environments in the world are the home of some of the most amazing plants called adaptogens. In 1947 a Russian Phytopharmacist named Dr. Nicolai Lazarev discovered and named this class of plants. An adaptogen has the ability to create homeostasis with the body.
Adaptogens are said to help the body fight stress, like that from anxiety, trauma, and fatigue. Dr. Lazarev said that they help increase the body's natural resistance. Specifically, Adaptogens recharge the adrenal glands, which are the body's important mechanism for responding to stress
As we age, our body gradually loses its ability to produce nitric oxide. Stress, pollution and a nutrient-deficient diet also reduce our nitric oxide reserves. A healthy diet, sleep, and exercise contribute to nitric oxide activity " and to good health!
There is a long list of ailments related to insufficient Nitric Oxide within the body. Elevated blood pressure, Alzheimers, coronary heart disease, stroke, diabetes, are just a few.
Many diseases can be treated for and protected against by helping the body increase its levels of Nitric Oxide. It seems that patients respond favorably when we help them raise their levels of Nitric Oxide.
There are a few adaptogen compounds that have been shown to activate Nitric Oxide due to their high antioxidant levels. As described above, stress kills Nitric Oxide, and it's the adaptogens that kill stress. Adaptogens are certainly a great Stress Treatment .
The amount of NO in some adaptogen formulas has been shown to help protect against vascular inflammation, reduce injury from a heart attack or stroke and restore NO homeostasis (a sense of balance) in animal models.
Make sure you do your research when looking for good adaptogen formulas. There are a lot of products out there with very little clinical backing. You can purchase them in some health food stores but I recommend doing some background investigation on the internet first. - 17274
