Published 2024-06-20
During his nine years at UT, Dr. Bryan focused on drug discovery, screening natural product libraries for active compounds. His research led to over a dozen US and international patents. Notably, he was the first to describe nitrite and nitrate as essential nutrients for cardiovascular health and demonstrated an endocrine function of nitric oxide. He discovered compositions that generate and restore nitric oxide in humans, validated by six clinical trials.
In this episode, we cover:
- The role of nitric oxide in maintaining cardiovascular and brain health.
- How nitric oxide production declines with age and its impact on chronic diseases.
- The connection between nitric oxide and diet, highlighting the importance of vegetables.
- The surprising link between oral hygiene and nitric oxide levels, and how mouthwash may harm your health.
- The influence of nitric oxide on hormone regulation and sexual health.
- Myths about nitrates in cured meats and their health effects.
- The risks associated with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and their impact on nitric oxide production.
- The role of nitric oxide in mitochondrial function and overall energy production.
- Dr. Nathan Bryan's actionable tips for enhancing nitric oxide production through diet, lifestyle, and supplementation.

Nitric oxide is one of three vasodilators, the other two being hydrogen sulphide and carbon monoxide. Perhaps you could discuss these in a future video?
-
Loving this episode so much! Thank you for introducing me to Dr. Nathan Bryan. :)))
-
I’m excited also…should I make my own beet juice?
-
Truly awesome❤❤❤
-
I take Magnesium Glycinate and Liposomal Vitamin C that helps keep the blood vessels flexible, I added D3 and K2-MK7 and Omega 3 krill oil, and finely Nitric Oxide
-
How is his products for pregnant women?
-
Organic beet root powder!
-
Does chewing on cloves destroy mouth bacteria?
-
LOL, until recently I hadn't realized that Mario updated his favorite way to tackle ED and it's a relief! Although what he previously suggested was pretty good, it was a real pain to follow... I just go'ogled the latest by Mario Volpstein, it's so much simpler and potent now!

30 second in and i cannot watch anymore! Promoting plant based diet? Wtf we are not omnivores!
