Bionox has launched Bionox M3 Original and M3 with Vitamin K2, supplements formulated to increase and sustain nitric oxide production in the body for better cardiovascular health, the company says. M3 contains beetroot powder and watermelon extract–containing natural nitrates and L-citrulline–as well as hawthorne berry, horse chestnut, amla, and green coffee bean. Sweetened with xylitol, stevia, monk fruit, and natural flavors from raspberry juice, M3 is vegetarian, gluten-free, soy-free, made in the USA, and non-GMO.
Nitric Oxide (NO) has been the topic of over 140,000 research articles. The pinnacle of accomplishment in this field was the Nobel Prize in Medicine given to three American scientists for their work in discovering the nitric oxide pathway. Since then, pharmaceutical and nutraceutical companies have been scrambling to create new products that harness the powers of this simple yet profound molecule.
NO has been proven to improve many aspects of human health, including cardiovascular function, pain and inflammation, brain, vision, sexual health, athletic performance, healthful aging, and sleep.
Now more than ever, patients are in search of ways to keep their immune systems as fit as possible. The word “fit” was utilized for a reason—immune support can be cared for in multiple ways, one of which includes physical activity. Many would agree that “moderate” exercise is ideal when it comes to immunity, but the question is, can too much exercise produce counteractive effects?
In an article published in Exercise Immunology Review, physiologists from the University of Bath’s Department for Health in England concluded that infections are more likely to be connected to diet, psychological stress, not getting enough sleep, travel and pathogen exposure at social gatherings, such as marathons, rather than from the actual act of exercising.
There’s an old aphorism attributed to baseball great Yogi Berra: “When you come to a fork in the road, take it.”
The New York Yankees legend said it while giving directions to his old friend, Joe Garagiola. He certainly was not talking about nutrition to improve nitric oxide production.
But thanks to the development of two innovative supplement formulations, Berra’s statement could easily apply there too.
