Interesting lecture, thank you. Would be interesting to hear results of studies of long term dietary nitrate intake. Would also be nice to hear results of trials using higher doses of dietary nitrate. Would also be nice to hear the results of studies determining optimum dose of dietary nitrate. So, what is the optimum dose of dietary nitrate per day?
What if diet and healthcare were bundled together? What if it costs a healthcare provider LESS over the long haul to subsidize the cost of leafy greens? Or you get cheaper health insurance if you can show you buy enough leafy greens every week?
I tried the beetroot powder but got a kidney stone. Beetroot is high in oxalates. The same problem exist with spinach high in nitrate but also high in oxalates. Arugula has the highest concentration of nitrates and very low in oxalates so why use beetroot with this potential complication when Arugula is available. Could arugula be a better material to use than beet-root or spinach since it avoids the stress on the kidney.
Yup, ounce for ounce, arugula has 4x the nitrate (4800 mg/100g vs 1100) of beets. See www.efsa.europa.eu/sites/default/files/scientific_output/files/main_documents/689.pdf pp. 17-20 for lists of most common vegetables and their nitrate contents. My go-to's are arugula, napa cabbage, some beets (although your point is taken seriously), good old spring mix. Shoot, even iceberg lettuce will get you there (844 mg/100g).
22:30 This is huge. A nitric oxide deficit might cause (not just correlate to) type 2 diabetes. 24:19 How NO affects insulin signaling 42:05 Also amazing: HumanN's N-O supplement is adaptogenic with respect to lowering blood pressure, unlike ACEs, ARBs, CCBs, and diuretics.
12:25 Erectile dysfunction: The real cause is diminished N-O production, not an overactive PDE-5 enzyme. Rehabilitating the eNOS enzyme, therefore, should diminish the need for PDE-5 inhibitors like Adcirca, Cialis, and Viagra.
It's cheaper to eat leafy greens and get your dose that way, but of course this doc and the pharmaceutical companies need something that they can sell and profit from.
@@libraryfiles4470 Maybe, maybe not. Karo syrup has been around since 1901 and kids have been eating candy since forever. Mercury contamination in corn syrup might be a newer issue, though.

This is so fine!!!!

Sodium nitrite is best, and is so cheap.
@@RobinHood-ki5gg true? I wonder why nobody else says this? It's safe to ingest I guess? How much do you take? Very interesting.

Wheatgrass works great! no oxalates!
Same thing happened to me after becoming addicted to beet chips. I miss them, so crunchy ...
NITRATE in leafy greens get reduced to NITRITE by bacteria in the mouth.
Remembering A comes before I in the alphabet is one way to remember that.

I bought Neo 40 losenges at healthy Planet in Canada. It’s Nitric oxide plus other nutrients.
15:00 arginine as precursor, peroxynitrite

If deficiency in NO production causes T2D, but children generally produce adequate NO, why are we seeing cases of T2D in children these days?
Corn syrup
