    Hydroxocobalamin, A Nitric Oxide Scavenger, In The Prophylaxis Of Migraine: An Open, Pilot Study

    Abstract Drugs which directly counteract nitric oxide (NO), such as endothelial receptor blockers, NO-synthase inhibitors, and NO-scavengers, may be effective in the acute treatment of migraine, but are also likely to be effective in migraine prophylaxis. In the underlying pilot study the...

    Which Nitric Oxide Test Strips Values Should Be Used?

    I have the brand Two Blue Diamonds test strips and am wondering if I should use the "Optimal" value, which is 200 umol/L on the bottle, or try to minimize my nitric oxide levels to read a lower or lesser value for better health. I am hoping perhaps haidut might be able to shed some light as...

    Nitric Oxide (NO) May Be A Causative Factor In Schizophrenia

    I am always pleased to see studies like this as they indicate that at least in some medical circles common sense has not left the building. If the study below is correct, it would explain the beneficial effects on schizophrenia of substances like glycine, famotidine, minocycline, pregnenolone...

    Nitric Oxide And Morning Wood

    I've read in several places that strong morning erection is a sign of good health and sex drive. However, I'm curious about the mechanism involved, and after thinking about nitric oxide recently, I began to wonder if that's the major player involved. From what Peat says, nitric oxide is like a...

    Bromocriptine Is Anti-obesity Agent & Reduces Nitric Oxide (NO) Synthesis

    Given the role of NO in endotoxin-inflammation-obesity axis, reducing NO synthesis would probably explain a good deal of bromocriptine's anti-obesity, anti-diabetic, and anti-cancer activity. If alpha-adrenergic "receptor" agonism was the main beneficial mechanism in bromocriptine's anti-obesity...

    Role Of Low-Level Laser Therapy In Neurorehabilitation

    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3065857/ Abstract This year marks the 50th anniversary of the discovery of the laser. The development of lasers for medical use, which became known as low-level laser therapy (LLLT) or photobiomodulation, followed in 1967. In recent years, LLLT has become...

    Beet Root Increases Nitric Oxide?

    There's some talk around the net that eating beets or taking beetroot powder will increase the oxygen that gets into your blood, by taking the nitrate it contains and morphing it into NO2 which will then convert to NO, and increase athletic performance. I am again perplexed. How could a...

    Infrared Sauna Nitric Oxide

    Hi all! I am new here. I have been wondering about Nitric Oxide generation by infrared saunas. A bunch of studies show up if one searches for "Infrared Sauna Nitric Oxide", an example is pasted below. My query is about safety of Infrared Sauna in light of such effects. Personally, my anxiety...

    Curcumin NO Scavenger

    I believe that Peat is not in favor of polyphenols in general, and I think I've read some unfavorable comments from Peat regarding curcumin, though I don't have the references on hand. Still, curcumin, particularly in the form of turmeric, has a long history of medicinal use as an...

    Famotidine Is A Powerful Scavenger Of Nitric Oxide (NO)

    This is probably one of the main reasons behind famotidine's healing of GI / liver damage, and protection from cancer. It could be a good alternative to methylene blue (MB) for NO scavenging purposes as the doses of MB required to scavenge NO are in the tens of milligrams per dose...

    Zinc Reduces Nitric Oxide (NO) Levels In Humans

    The dose was 100mg elemental zinc for 3 months. Zinc inhibited NO synthesis from arginine. Combined with magnesium, zinc could be a viable alternative to methylene blue - magnesium for getting NO out of the cell and thus restoring cytochrome C activity, and zinc inhibiting new NO synthesis...

    The Anticancer Effect Of Quinones Like Vitamin K May Be Reduction Of NO

    Ray said in one of his recent interviews that Pau D'Arco is a good natural alternative to Methylene Blue as a compound that will reduce NO synthesis and restore metabolism. That got me thinking that quinones in general could probably reduce levels of NO, and that would be their major effect...

    NO Causes Parkinson (PD)

    The study used a common PD rodent model, and was bases on the assumption that NO causes PD. So, another point for Ray. The scientists also used Ceylon cinnamon (as opposed to the cheap and toxic ground cinnamon) to reverse the disease progression. The dosage was equivalent to about 500mg-600mg...

    Caffeine Decreases Exhaled Nitric Oxide

    The levels of NO in the breath are useful in predicting asthma attacks as well as GI issues. If caffeine is helpful in lowering breath NO it suggests it may be helpful in both asthma and GI conditions. Human dosage was 200mg. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11923558 "...Caffeine causes a...
