Learn how to recognize Nitric Oxide deficiency in your patients before the onset and presentation of related disease or symptoms.
Nitric oxide (NO) is one of the most important signaling molecules in our body involved with a host of physiological processes including defense, neuronal communication and the regulation of vascular tone. Loss of NO function is one of the earliest indicators or markers of disease and may manifest early on as sexual dysfunction in both men and women. Clinical studies show that defects of endothelial NO production, is not only associated with all major cardiovascular risk factors such as hyperlipidemia, diabetes, hypertension, erectile dysfunction, smoking and severity of atherosclerosis, but also has a predictive value for future atherosclerotic disease.
This seminar will review clinical studies showing the effects of nitric oxide supplementation on inflammation, sexual function and markers of cardiovascular disease. Dr. Bryan will also discuss how to recognize NO deficiency in patients before the onset and presentation of disease and how NO supplementation may profoundly improve the management of patients through correcting NO homeostasis.
