Nitric Oxide is involved in almost every vital bodily function ~ changes in the brain, dilation of blood vessels, increasing blood flow, beating of the heart, airway relaxation, regulation of intestinal movement and the immune system, and much more.
In 1992, Nitric Oxide (NOx) was honored as “Molecule of the Year” and hailed as a 'miracle molecule' because of its extraordinary importance in the health of virtually every cell in the body.
In fact, the scientists who discovered nitric oxide's central role in relaxing blood vessels, promoting blood flow and boosting blood oxygen, were awarded the Nobel Prize in 1992.

How Does The Body Produce Nitric Oxide?
Nitric oxide is a gas. Body cells manufacture it through a complex process that first converts nitrates into nitrites and then finally into nitric oxide as needed.
The nitrates that fuel the process can be found in many common vegetables such as beets and spinach.

Some antibacterial mouthwashes and toothpastes can actually prevent this beneficial step. It’s a good reason to not mix your mouthwash with your nitrates if you want them to be effective.
Once the nitrite is available in the bloodstream, cells throughout the body convert the nitrite into nitric oxide as required.

Studies have shown that nitrate-rich vegetable extracts can support nitric oxide production and blood flow for up to 24 hours, reaching peak concentration approximately two to three hours after ingestion.
A recent study found AMPED NOx significantly increased blood plasma nitrates and nitrites in the test subjects, indicating better nitric oxide bioavailability. NOx also supported healthy blood pressure.

Scientists studying the role of nitric oxide in cardiovascular health and neurologic aging have shown the benefits of supplementing nitric oxide in order to maintain heart and vascular health.

NOx and Performance
During exercise, there is a constant exchange of oxygen and nutrients being delivered to working muscles and waste products being transferred away.
When oxygen and nutrient-rich blood cannot keep up with the demand, fatigue sets in. The nitrate-rich vegetable extracts in AMPED NOx support healthy blood flow while fighting fatigue.

Blood vessel stiffness, specifically in the brain, is associated with cognitive decline. Studies have found the use of nitrate-rich liquids helps combat this brain blood vessel stiffness through support of nitric oxide production.
Studies evaluating supplementation with dietary nitrates suggest greater support for transport of glucose, oxygen, and other nutrients to protect brain cells and the brain’s electrical signalling network.

AMPED NOx delivers a performance boost with vegetable-sourced nitrates for supporting healthy blood flow.
