Miracle Molecule The Importance of Nitric Oxide with Dr Nathan S Bryan

Today we're going to learn about a "miracle molecule" called Nitric Oxide and why it is vital for our health - as well as how to prevent losing it from your body - in our interview with Dr Nathan S Bryan. Dr Bryan's new book The Secret of Nitric Oxide Bringing the Science to Life is now available and represents his life's work in researching and educating about nitric oxide. As we age, nitric oxide production decreases due to a breakdown in an enzyme in our blood vessels. That's significant, because loss of nitric oxide production is recognized as the earliest event in the onset and progression of most if not all chronic diseases, including the number 1 killer of men and women worldwide, cardiovascular disease. Poor blood flow is also linked to conditions like reduced cognitive function and impotency. In this interview you'll learn: What is nitric oxide? Why is it important that we maintain healthy levels in or body? How can we maintain healthy levels of nitric oxide in our body? Where can people go for more information? About Author, Nathan S. Bryan, Ph.D.: Dr. Nathan S. Bryan is an author and biomedical scientist of nitric oxide. He earned his undergraduate Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry from the University of Texas at Austin and his doctoral degree from Louisiana State University School of Medicine in Shreveport. He pursued his post-doctoral training as a Kirschstein Fellow at Boston University School of Medicine in the Whitaker Cardiovascular Institute. After a two-year post-doctoral fellowship, Dr. Bryan joined the faculty at the University of Texas Health Science Center. During his tenure as faculty and independent investigator at UT, his research focused on drug discovery through screening natural product libraries for active compounds. His nine years at UT led to several discoveries which have resulted in over a dozen issued US and international patents and many more pending worldwide.
