Nitric Oxide and Blood Flow for Men

Nitric Oxide and Blood Flow for Men

Quick answer

  • Nitric oxide relaxes blood vessel walls.
  • Beet root nitrate and L-Arginine feed the pathway.
  • Can add to blood pressure, nitrate and ED medicines.

What nitric oxide does

It signals smooth muscle in vessel walls to relax, supporting blood flow.

Beet root nitrate

Dietary nitrate converts to nitric oxide (PubMed; NIH ODS).

L-Arginine and grape seed

Arginine is a building block for nitric oxide; grape seed polyphenols support vascular tone.

Medicine caution

Do not combine with nitrate medicines or ED drugs without a doctor; blood pressure may drop too far.

Habits

Exercise, leafy greens and not smoking support blood flow. See doses.

Frequently asked questions
