Nitric Oxide Foundation by Berkeley Life
Increasing Nitric oxide levels via dietary nitrates provides sustainable whole-body benefits — starting with improved circulation of blood, oxygen, and vital nutrients throughout the body. Our proprietary dietary nitrate blend provides the plant-based bioequivalents of multiple daily doses of nitrate-rich leafy green vegetables or beetroot. Dietary nitrates such as beet root and leafy greens are used by our bodies to create Nitric Oxide (NO). As we age and our naturally produced NO levels drop, consuming dietary nitrates gives our bodies what they need to continue producing Nitric Oxide. Dietary nitrates in food or supplementation are converted into nitrite in the mouth, and — once swallowed in the saliva — used to make Nitric Oxide as needed in the body. Two elements need to be present for this pathway to function: adequate amounts of the necessary oral bacteria and a consistent source of dietary nitrates. Although NO levels can be improved through a nitrate-rich diet, modern eating h
