Better than Viagra? Nitric Oxide Ultra
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common condition that affects millions of men worldwide, but there’s often misinformation surrounding its causes. Contrary to popular belief, ED is not solely a result of low testosterone levels. While hormonal imbalances can contribute, this is quite often an issue related to insufficient blood flow.
While medications like Viagra and Cialis are effective at addressing the circulatory aspect of ED, there are natural alternatives that can work just as well.
Medications like Viagra (sildenafil) and Cialis (tadalafil) have become household names in addressing ED. They work by enhancing the effects of nitric oxide, a molecule that relaxes the muscles in the penis, allowing for increased blood flow.
The Role of Nitric Oxide in ED
Nitric oxide helps with erectile dysfunction by both widening the blood vessels to increase blood flow to the penis and relaxing the muscles within the penis to facilitate erection. This dual mechanism is essential for achieving and maintaining a satisfactory erection during sexual activity.
Enter L-Citrulline
This amino acid is often used by body builders for its role in developing muscle mass and boosting energy levels.
L-Citrulline contributes to muscle growth is through its role in increasing nitric oxide production in the body. Nitric oxide is a vasodilator that widens blood vessels, improving blood flow to the muscles during exercise.
This enhanced blood flow delivers more oxygen and nutrients to the muscles, promoting their growth and repair after workouts resulting in faster gains in muscle mass and improved recovery times.
A Product Worth Trying
One product I love both personally and for my clients is Nitric Oxide Ultra from Pure Encapsulations.
Nitric Oxide Ultra capsules are a blend of CranLoad® and citrulline to support healthy blood flow by targeting nitric oxide production and flow mediated dilation. CranLoad® is a proprietary blend of cranberry and grape extracts that also naturally increase nitric oxide production.
