Role of Nitric Oxide in Longevity

So nitric oxide is the foundational longevi-longevity molecule because

nitric oxide is the signal in the body that tells our stem cells to

mobilize and differentiate.

Mm-hmm.

Without nitric oxide, you have less number of circulating stem

cells.

Nitric oxide activates the enzyme telomerase, which prevents

telomere shortening.

Without nitric oxide, you don't get activation of telomerase,

telomeres shorten.

And then nitric oxide is the signal in the cell that tells the

cell, "I need more mitochondria, and I need these

mitochondria to be more efficient,

generate more cellular energy with less oxygen."

So when you, when you restore nitric oxide,

you address all three

aspects of longevity, and there's no other molecule in the body

that does that
