Dr. Louis Ignarro discovered "the atom" of cardiovascular health—a tiny molecule called Nitric Oxide. NO, as it is known by chemists, is a signaling molecule produced by the body, and is a vasodilator that helps control blood flow to every part of the body. Dr. Ignarro's findings led to the development of Viagra. Nitric Oxide has a beneficial effect on the cardiovascular system as well.
NO relaxes and enlarges the blood vessels, prevents blood clots that trigger strokes and heart attacks, and regulates blood pressure and the accumulation of plaque in the blood vessels. Dr. Ignarro's current research indicates that Nitric Oxide may help lower cholesterol by facilitating the actions of statin drugs like Lipitor.
The goal of the regimen presented in NO More Heart Disease is to age proof the cardiovascular system, keeping the vascular network clean and elastic through enhanced NO productivity. The plan is easy-to-follow without extreme lifestyle adjustments, involving taking supplements to stimulate Nitric Oxide production, incorporating NO friendly food into the diet, and a moderate exercise program.

From the Publisher
The discovery of Nitric Oxide by Lou Ignarro, and the role that it plays in reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease, is as important as the discovery of penicillin and insulin.” —David Heber, M.D., Ph.D., Director, UCLA Center for Human Nutrition
If author credentials are important to you, look no further: Dr. Louis Ignarro received a Nobel Prize in Medicine for his discovery of nitric oxide, the tiny molecule that is a key to cardiovascular health. The properties of NO are impressive: It relaxes and enlarges blood vessels; prevents blood clots that trigger heart attacks and strokes; and regulates blood pressure and the accumulation of plaque in the blood vessels. Dr. Ignarro's recent research indicates that NO may help lower cholesterol by facilitating the actions of statin drugs like Lipitor. This accessible book provides a proven, easy-to-follow program for boosting production of this internal wonder drug.
