00:00:08.759 --> 00:00:09.759
Good morning everyone.
2
00:00:09.839 --> 00:00:13.160
This is Michelle Hughes from Ageless and Timeless. I have
3
00:00:13.199 --> 00:00:15.839
a guest today that I've been talking to for over
4
00:00:15.880 --> 00:00:18.559
a year now, and I have to tell you a
5
00:00:18.559 --> 00:00:23.519
little backstory about doctor Nathan Bryan because he's such a
6
00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:29.000
special man and this will indicate what I'm more validate
7
00:00:29.039 --> 00:00:30.039
what I'm talking about.
8
00:00:30.039 --> 00:00:32.560
So I was at the Radfest festival.
9
00:00:32.159 --> 00:00:37.119
And Anaheim about a year or so ago, and I
10
00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:40.320
walked over to the booth called N one oh one
11
00:00:40.520 --> 00:00:45.159
and Nitric outside. If anyone has heard of the Nightrik Outside,
12
00:00:45.240 --> 00:00:47.799
you know that that's a big hot topic these days.
13
00:00:47.799 --> 00:00:50.880
So I was really interested because of my podcast to
14
00:00:51.079 --> 00:00:52.119
meet doctor Brian.
15
00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:55.840
And anyway, it turned out by just good fortune.
16
00:00:56.039 --> 00:01:00.840
Susan, his partner, was there and then doctor Brian came
17
00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:04.040
by and so we started chatting, and I mean, I
18
00:01:04.159 --> 00:01:08.319
was just so engaged in all that he's done. So
19
00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:14.200
today we're going to hear his backstory on how he
20
00:01:14.239 --> 00:01:16.120
got to where he is today, and we're going to
21
00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:21.359
hear all about deep dive into nitrigauxide. But the story
22
00:01:21.359 --> 00:01:23.040
I was going to tell you is that so I
23
00:01:23.120 --> 00:01:26.359
needed a ride to Los Angeles and I happened to
24
00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:28.840
mention to doctor Brian that I was going up to
25
00:01:29.120 --> 00:01:32.560
LA after the and right away he offered me a
26
00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:35.359
ride with flying back to the air or going back
27
00:01:35.359 --> 00:01:37.319
to the airport to fly back to home.
28
00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:39.599
So I was just so impressive.
29
00:01:39.640 --> 00:01:43.200
Here was a complete stranger and here he was so
30
00:01:43.400 --> 00:01:47.280
generous to offer. That turned out my schedule change and
31
00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:49.480
we didn't do it, And I actually regret that because
32
00:01:49.480 --> 00:01:51.159
I think I would have learned an awful lot in
33
00:01:51.159 --> 00:01:54.560
that one hour, just having him one on one that
34
00:01:54.879 --> 00:01:58.200
outside of a conference. But anyway, it just shows you
35
00:01:58.280 --> 00:02:02.079
the generosity of Brian. And actually I like him so
36
00:02:02.200 --> 00:02:06.560
much that I have him in October, well September, but
37
00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:08.319
it won't come out until October.
38
00:02:08.360 --> 00:02:11.439
First. He'll be the feature column in.
39
00:02:11.599 --> 00:02:15.879
My Top Doctor magazine, so I do a monthly column there.
40
00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:19.360
So if you are listening to this podcast or watching
41
00:02:19.400 --> 00:02:23.240
it today, please check out Topdoctor dot com and you'll
42
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:26.719
see another piece on doctor Brian.
43
00:02:26.960 --> 00:02:29.919
So, good morning, Nathan. How are you well great?
44
00:02:29.960 --> 00:02:31.759
It's great to see you. I'm doing fantastic.
45
00:02:32.240 --> 00:02:36.360
How were you I'm doing great. Are you in Austin today?
46
00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:37.000
I am.
47
00:02:37.039 --> 00:02:38.680
I'm home for the next couple of days. I live
48
00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:41.639
about an hour outside of Austin. But I just flew
49
00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:44.400
in from Miami yesterday and headed to New York next week.
50
00:02:44.919 --> 00:02:47.400
Yeah, you're on an airplane a lot.
51
00:02:47.879 --> 00:02:51.360
So Nathan, you know, Night to Go Outside has become
52
00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:54.560
one of the darlings of the longevity movement, and a
53
00:02:54.560 --> 00:02:58.879
lot of people, however, I'm shocked, haven't really understood or
54
00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:01.960
even know about it. So why don't we start first
55
00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:06.479
with how did you get so engaged in an area
56
00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:12.960
that is still emerging and evolving as a longevity I
57
00:03:12.960 --> 00:03:15.159
don't even want to say a biohap because it really
58
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:19.800
is a scientific breakthrough that people haven't really understood.
59
00:03:19.919 --> 00:03:23.560
So it's kind of like inflammation was for many years.
60
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:26.240
If you remember when they first started talking about inflammation,
61
00:03:26.280 --> 00:03:29.840
everybody compooted in the medical world, and then suddenly it
62
00:03:29.879 --> 00:03:33.520
became this, you know, very important part of the three
63
00:03:33.599 --> 00:03:39.000
leged stool of health. Right, So I think Nikagatxa might
64
00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:41.879
be the fourth leg. So let's start in the beginning.
65
00:03:41.960 --> 00:03:45.879
So what is it that brought you to this awareness
66
00:03:45.919 --> 00:03:48.680
of something that's so important and so young at such
67
00:03:48.719 --> 00:03:49.520
a young age.
68
00:03:49.919 --> 00:03:53.560
Well that takes me back almost thirty years, I know,
69
00:03:54.240 --> 00:03:55.680
and you're not that old.
70
00:03:55.719 --> 00:03:58.400
So Okay, so thirty years.
71
00:03:58.199 --> 00:04:02.599
Means early nineteen Yeah, the late nineties, yeah, late nineties.
72
00:04:02.319 --> 00:04:04.439
Early ties. I'm sorry.
73
00:04:05.080 --> 00:04:07.240
Yeah. So I was a student at LSU School of Medicine.
74
00:04:07.280 --> 00:04:09.560
I was working on a PhD in molecular study of physiology,
75
00:04:09.599 --> 00:04:11.719
and a Nobel Prize had just been awarded for discovery
76
00:04:11.719 --> 00:04:15.000
of nitric oxide. And honestly, you know, I had a
77
00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:17.560
degree in biol chemistry from the University of Texas at Austin,
78
00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:20.720
so I was familiar with nitrogen based chemistry. Is obviously
79
00:04:20.839 --> 00:04:24.519
nitrocoxide part of the gentrification unification cycle, but it was
80
00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:27.439
a new molecule in science or medicine. But obviously it
81
00:04:27.480 --> 00:04:29.839
was important because the Nobel Prize had just been awarded
82
00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:33.319
for the discovery of nitric oxide as a signaling molecule
83
00:04:33.319 --> 00:04:36.600
in the cardiovascer system. And during my PhD work, I
84
00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:39.600
was working under a pharmacologist who became my mentor, Martin Feelish,
85
00:04:39.839 --> 00:04:42.439
who had worked in the nitrocoxide field for you know,
86
00:04:42.480 --> 00:04:44.920
since the early eighties and when it was just first
87
00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:48.600
starting to be discovered, and so had I had a
88
00:04:48.680 --> 00:04:50.560
chance to meet lou Ignaro, who had just won the
89
00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:53.040
Nobel Prize, and you know piqued my interest. It was
90
00:04:53.079 --> 00:04:56.319
an exciting time. And you know, nitrocoxide's this gas that's
91
00:04:56.399 --> 00:04:58.319
one it's produced, it's gone in less than a second.
92
00:04:58.439 --> 00:05:01.079
So we didn't have a lot of analytical tools to
93
00:05:01.199 --> 00:05:06.360
measure nitrocoxide production in animals in humans. So part of
94
00:05:06.399 --> 00:05:08.920
my PhD was developing these analytical methods where it could
95
00:05:08.920 --> 00:05:12.920
detect nitrocoxide and when nitrocoxide is produced, where does it
96
00:05:12.959 --> 00:05:14.720
go and what does it become? And how does it signal?
97
00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:17.040
Because once it's produced, it's gone in less than a second,
98
00:05:17.920 --> 00:05:19.920
So you know, we started trying to figure this out
99
00:05:19.959 --> 00:05:24.360
through these nitrocoxide analytical methods that we developed, and we
100
00:05:24.439 --> 00:05:29.199
understood the metabolism of nitrocoxide, how it's produced, when it's produced,
101
00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:30.680
where does it go, what is it becoming, how does
102
00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:33.759
it signal? And then how do we detect nitrocoxide deficiencies
103
00:05:34.199 --> 00:05:37.199
in many different diseases from diabetes to hard disease to
104
00:05:37.319 --> 00:05:41.839
transplantation surgery. So then we were armed. Our group was
105
00:05:41.959 --> 00:05:43.800
armed with really a lot of tools that no one
106
00:05:43.800 --> 00:05:45.839
else in the world had. I finished my PhD in
107
00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:48.879
less than two years. I think I published two or
108
00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:51.240
three first author papers during that time, and then went
109
00:05:51.279 --> 00:05:55.040
to Boston Medical Center and was training in the cardiovascu
110
00:05:55.040 --> 00:05:59.040
as a a postdoctoral fellow. And then Fredmiradded, the other
111
00:05:59.079 --> 00:06:01.399
guy who won the Nobel Rise, recruited me to join
112
00:06:01.439 --> 00:06:04.040
faculty of ut Medical School in Houston. And I believe
113
00:06:04.079 --> 00:06:05.920
it was two thousand and five, so twenty years ago
114
00:06:05.920 --> 00:06:08.839
where I started my own independent research career and you know,
115
00:06:09.079 --> 00:06:13.639
again continued our journey of discovery and innovations and you know,
116
00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:17.160
started filing patents, patents became issued, and then started making
117
00:06:17.160 --> 00:06:19.480
products and starting companies and well, you.
118
00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:27.560
Know later, you know, I did watch Blue on.
119
00:06:26.279 --> 00:06:28.480
On a tiv on an internet show.
120
00:06:28.959 --> 00:06:31.040
I don't know if there's a podcast, But anyway, is
121
00:06:31.079 --> 00:06:32.680
he still with you today?
122
00:06:32.759 --> 00:06:34.879
I mean, do you collaborate with him?
123
00:06:35.480 --> 00:06:35.560
Now?
124
00:06:35.639 --> 00:06:38.040
Low is a close friend and colleague, and he's you know,
125
00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:42.839
the only remaining surviving member of the Nobel Nobel Aureates.
126
00:06:42.920 --> 00:06:45.800
But yeah, no, Look, I'm hosting the Nitric Oxide Society
127
00:06:45.839 --> 00:06:49.360
meeting in Austin in April of next year and lose
128
00:06:49.399 --> 00:06:52.399
our keynote, lose part of the organizing committee. So you know,
129
00:06:52.439 --> 00:06:55.959
he's still active. You know, he's still very active in
130
00:06:55.959 --> 00:07:00.519
the nitric oxide community. He's such a wonderful, caring, humble
131
00:07:00.600 --> 00:07:03.439
man and really supportive his new investigators and just he
132
00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:04.160
has been achieving.
133
00:07:05.079 --> 00:07:06.879
I was just about to say to you he was
134
00:07:06.959 --> 00:07:09.639
so humble that he didn't even when he was asked
135
00:07:09.639 --> 00:07:12.560
about his background, he didn't even mention the Nobel Prize,
136
00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:16.879
and the interviewer had to say, well, you're you're omitting
137
00:07:16.920 --> 00:07:20.920
one very very important piece of information. So yeah, he
138
00:07:21.120 --> 00:07:22.879
had to pull it out of him. I mean, that's
139
00:07:22.920 --> 00:07:26.959
that just shows you his humility. So what has happened
140
00:07:26.959 --> 00:07:31.040
from then to now in terms of your the scientific
141
00:07:31.079 --> 00:07:33.959
awareness of the importance of nitrogoxide.
142
00:07:34.360 --> 00:07:37.800
That's you know, it's thirty years. So what what has transpired?
143
00:07:38.519 --> 00:07:41.600
Well, today we understand how the human body makes nitrocoxide,
144
00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:45.240
we understand what leads to a loss of its production,
145
00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:48.399
We understand the symptoms that develop as a loss of
146
00:07:48.439 --> 00:07:50.680
nitrocoux as a result of the loss of microcoxid production,
147
00:07:51.319 --> 00:07:53.800
and most importantly, we know how to overcome and fix
148
00:07:53.839 --> 00:07:58.759
and repair and recapitulate nitrocoxide production and signaling. So, you know,
149
00:07:58.800 --> 00:08:01.959
I like to say, those guys has discovered that nitrocoxide
150
00:08:02.000 --> 00:08:04.759
is a signaling molecule in the cardiovascar system. But it
151
00:08:04.879 --> 00:08:06.639
was really the work of me and my research group.
152
00:08:06.639 --> 00:08:09.680
We discovered how to deliver nitrocoxide gas. So we make
153
00:08:09.720 --> 00:08:12.439
a solid dose form of nitrocoxide gas. We can deliver
154
00:08:12.519 --> 00:08:15.879
this in an outpatient setting. We do this through consumer
155
00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:19.920
products and supplements and nutritionals and skincare products. We're developing
156
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:22.800
drug therapy, which was my original kind of goal when
157
00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:25.800
I started in academia and medicine was to understand the
158
00:08:25.839 --> 00:08:28.600
mechanism disease to the extent that you could start to
159
00:08:28.600 --> 00:08:31.319
develop rational therapies. And that's what we're doing. We've got
160
00:08:31.399 --> 00:08:34.559
drugs in development for heart disease, got drugs in development
161
00:08:34.559 --> 00:08:37.759
for Alzheimer's and dementia. Make a topical drug for diabetic
162
00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:40.720
ulcers and non healing wounds. And that's just the start,
163
00:08:40.840 --> 00:08:43.519
you know, because now what we know, it's not what
164
00:08:43.559 --> 00:08:46.080
we think. It's what we know that there's not a
165
00:08:46.120 --> 00:08:49.440
single condition or disease indication where nitrocoxide at the right
166
00:08:49.480 --> 00:08:51.320
dose at the right time and the right patient would
167
00:08:51.320 --> 00:08:56.799
not be beneficial. And so the future of medicine, health wellness,
168
00:08:57.159 --> 00:09:02.000
human optimization is absolutely dependent upon adequate production of mitrocoxae,
169
00:09:02.039 --> 00:09:03.840
and we know how to do it better than anybody
170
00:09:03.840 --> 00:09:06.279
in the world. And that's what we're doing. When you
171
00:09:06.360 --> 00:09:10.320
say we, what do you mean we mean collectively? You know,
172
00:09:10.360 --> 00:09:13.320
I never say I know many of the patents. I'm
173
00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:15.399
on the sole in vendor on these patents, but you know,
174
00:09:15.440 --> 00:09:16.799
it's a team I had, you know, when I was
175
00:09:17.240 --> 00:09:21.000
in academia, had you know, research fellows, I had postdocs,
176
00:09:21.039 --> 00:09:24.440
I had faculty and staff that work with me in collaboration.
177
00:09:25.159 --> 00:09:28.840
So I never take credit for this solely. And then
178
00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:30.600
when I say we, now, you know, I have several
179
00:09:30.600 --> 00:09:35.360
companies and executives within the companies, there's collaborators, there's you know,
180
00:09:35.399 --> 00:09:38.519
clinical trial sites that run our clinical trials. So I
181
00:09:38.559 --> 00:09:41.919
never say I because it's just not part of my fabric.
182
00:09:42.480 --> 00:09:47.559
That's also showing your humility. Well, so, Nathan, why is
183
00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:51.960
it that it took so long for this to become
184
00:09:52.120 --> 00:09:55.000
something that people are now much more aware of? What
185
00:09:55.360 --> 00:09:57.360
do you think has been the reason that has been
186
00:09:57.960 --> 00:10:00.720
slowed down even with a Nobel prize back in the
187
00:10:00.840 --> 00:10:01.639
late nineties.
188
00:10:02.320 --> 00:10:05.519
Well, I think there's several reason. Number One, on average,
189
00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:08.279
it takes about seventeen years for new discoveries to become
190
00:10:08.480 --> 00:10:12.679
so called standard of care or mainstream correct. Nitrocoxide is
191
00:10:12.720 --> 00:10:15.240
only about a fifty year old. Molecule was first described
192
00:10:15.240 --> 00:10:19.320
in nineteen seventy seven fred Mirad's paper showing that organic
193
00:10:19.440 --> 00:10:22.919
nitrates like nitroc listenm and metabolized into nitrocoxide and then
194
00:10:22.919 --> 00:10:26.639
that leads to vasodilation. That's how these drugs work for angeline.
195
00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:29.559
And then in nineteen eighty it was discovered by Bob
196
00:10:29.600 --> 00:10:32.639
Firtscott that the cells along our bud vessels produce this
197
00:10:32.759 --> 00:10:36.879
nitrocoxide molecule. So that was the initial lag. It just
198
00:10:36.919 --> 00:10:39.840
takes time. It has to stand the test of time
199
00:10:39.879 --> 00:10:43.000
and for these experiments to be reproducible by other groups.
200
00:10:43.759 --> 00:10:46.240
And then the other big I think lag and acceptance
201
00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:49.639
is there's been no major developments or innovations in nitrocoxide
202
00:10:49.720 --> 00:10:52.200
drug therapy. When I started in the field in the
203
00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:55.960
late nineties, every big pharmaceutical company and biotech company had
204
00:10:55.960 --> 00:11:00.960
a nitrocoxide pipeline of drugs. The reason they failed was
205
00:11:00.960 --> 00:11:02.759
they were using the wrong target, they were using the
206
00:11:02.759 --> 00:11:07.399
wrong strategy, and they were putting nitrocoxide linker molecules or
207
00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:10.799
nitrocoxide active drugs on parent molecules like COX two inhibitors
208
00:11:10.879 --> 00:11:14.120
or aspirin or insets, and you know you have to
209
00:11:14.360 --> 00:11:17.080
you have to cleave that nitroester bond, and there's consequences
210
00:11:17.120 --> 00:11:20.799
to that. So these weren't These drugs weren't safe. And
211
00:11:20.840 --> 00:11:23.679
then you know, in the nineteen eighties, late eighties, early nineties,
212
00:11:23.679 --> 00:11:27.840
it was starting to develop nitrocoxide therapy for innoltive therapy
213
00:11:27.879 --> 00:11:31.159
for premature babies born with pullman or hypertension. So now
214
00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:33.440
clinically that's been used for more than you know, thirty
215
00:11:33.519 --> 00:11:35.799
or forty years and save millions of babies' lives that
216
00:11:35.840 --> 00:11:39.120
are born premature. But then that's where the clinical innovation
217
00:11:39.320 --> 00:11:43.159
really stopped. Because nitrocoxide is a gas. How do we
218
00:11:43.200 --> 00:11:45.720
create a solid dose form of nitrocoxide that we can
219
00:11:45.799 --> 00:11:49.120
deliver in an outpatient setting. That's really the riddle that
220
00:11:49.159 --> 00:11:51.039
I saw, because my patents are on the method of
221
00:11:51.480 --> 00:11:55.039
making a solid dose form of nitrocoxide gas. So we
222
00:11:55.080 --> 00:11:58.360
make we deliver nitricoxide either topically through our orals or
223
00:11:58.360 --> 00:12:01.600
through an organ disintegrating tablet or other technology. And the
224
00:12:01.639 --> 00:12:03.679
whole basis of what I do is if your body
225
00:12:03.679 --> 00:12:07.759
can't make nitrocoxide, then we got to give it for you. Right,
226
00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:10.519
it's a hormone. It's like estrogen and testosterone. So if
227
00:12:10.639 --> 00:12:14.360
men or women can't make testosterone or estrogen perspectively, we
228
00:12:14.480 --> 00:12:18.039
give them testosterone. We give them the actual molecule. And
229
00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:21.200
so what we do is we give nitrocoxide gas. Where
230
00:12:21.240 --> 00:12:23.919
all of the companies out there can't do this, they
231
00:12:23.960 --> 00:12:26.320
don't do it and so their products don't work.
232
00:12:26.840 --> 00:12:29.840

those natural additives to optimize your health and longevity.
244
00:13:12.120 --> 00:13:15.080
Because we're never deficient in argentine or cicillin, and we're
245
00:13:15.120 --> 00:13:18.200
not deficient in a dead beat powder. So taking these
246
00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:20.799
products is not going to help in nitrocoxide production.
247
00:13:21.399 --> 00:13:23.840
I think that's very important what you just said, because
248
00:13:23.840 --> 00:13:24.159
a lot of.
249
00:13:24.159 --> 00:13:27.279
People I know take L rgenine and they forget to
250
00:13:27.320 --> 00:13:31.039
take the L siculine with it. But even what you're
251
00:13:31.080 --> 00:13:33.799
just saying is if you're taking both of those, you know,
252
00:13:33.840 --> 00:13:36.840
doing it the combo, it's still not going to produce
253
00:13:36.879 --> 00:13:38.960
the nitrogoxide.
254
00:13:38.039 --> 00:13:39.480
That you can be used.
255
00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:43.159
Well, that's because they don't understand the biochemistry, and that's
256
00:13:43.159 --> 00:13:46.759
why companies are really doing their customers of disservice and
257
00:13:46.799 --> 00:13:49.960
they're killing an industry. They're killing the nitrocoxide field because
258
00:13:50.320 --> 00:13:53.120
don't work and then the consumer or the patient goes
259
00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:56.240
Nitrocoxide must not be that important because these products didn't
260
00:13:56.240 --> 00:13:59.639
help me. But look, the enzyme that converts argentines to
261
00:13:59.720 --> 00:14:04.279
nitrol coxide is broken. And furthermore, el citylene is a
262
00:14:04.279 --> 00:14:08.080
byproduct of nitrocoxide production. It is not a precursor. Right,
263
00:14:08.159 --> 00:14:10.080
So for me, it's it's an easy litmus test. If
264
00:14:10.080 --> 00:14:12.840
you're looking for products in your supplement store and that
265
00:14:12.879 --> 00:14:15.440
product has il argentine or el CityLine in it. Then
266
00:14:15.559 --> 00:14:18.240
just dismiss it because these the people who are selling
267
00:14:18.279 --> 00:14:21.879
you that product do not understand the basic biochemistry the
268
00:14:21.919 --> 00:14:25.519
enzymology of how nitrocoxide is produced. So that's an easy
269
00:14:25.519 --> 00:14:28.399
litmus test. So save your money, put the product back
270
00:14:28.440 --> 00:14:28.960
on the shelf.
271
00:14:29.320 --> 00:14:32.240
And then what sorry the interpret what about it if
272
00:14:32.240 --> 00:14:36.279
you added glute tocione, if you get a transderal glute
273
00:14:36.320 --> 00:14:38.720
to scion, because I know glue tocion is very difficult
274
00:14:39.159 --> 00:14:43.519
to absorb otherwise, uh maybe through ivs, but it's only
275
00:14:43.519 --> 00:14:46.080
a short lived. So let's just say you're doing a
276
00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:49.000
you know, an absorbable glutathion, which is a very rare
277
00:14:49.039 --> 00:14:52.000
thing to find. Does that help the old argentine and
278
00:14:52.159 --> 00:14:57.600
L siculine and with glutathione added to produce more of
279
00:14:57.639 --> 00:14:59.440
a nitrogoxide result?
280
00:15:00.200 --> 00:15:03.840
Not necessarily? Now, not necessarily because here's the problem. The
281
00:15:03.919 --> 00:15:07.120
nitrocoxide synthase enzyme is what we call a homeo dimer,
282
00:15:07.159 --> 00:15:10.240
So it's two twins that come together. Okay, these these
283
00:15:10.279 --> 00:15:13.200
these enzymes have to undergo a conformational change to transfer
284
00:15:13.240 --> 00:15:16.519
the electrons from rgenine to make nitrocoxide, and then it spits
285
00:15:16.559 --> 00:15:20.039
out citrilline as a byproduct greate limiting step in the
286
00:15:20.120 --> 00:15:25.639
uncoupling of that enzyme oxidation of tetrahydroboptria. So more glue
287
00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:30.440
de thione, more antioxidant antioxidant capacity, But just by increasing
288
00:15:30.480 --> 00:15:34.440
glue to thion doesn't prevent oxidation of tetrahydroboptrin. There's a
289
00:15:34.480 --> 00:15:39.080
different redox potential for glue de thione than a scorbic acid,
290
00:15:39.120 --> 00:15:44.120
than alphalopoic acid, than tetrahydroboptrin, to all other antioxidants, whether
291
00:15:44.799 --> 00:15:50.440
fat soluble, water soluble, enzymatic antioxidants, there's a redox potential
292
00:15:50.480 --> 00:15:53.919
that's required to prevent the extraction of electron from all
293
00:15:53.960 --> 00:15:58.039
those molecules. So the simple answer is maybe, but not
294
00:15:58.080 --> 00:15:59.600
necessarily right.
295
00:15:59.720 --> 00:16:03.240
So basically what you're saying, Nathan, is if you have
296
00:16:03.480 --> 00:16:06.120
an l arginine and even if you've added the l
297
00:16:06.200 --> 00:16:08.840
ciculine and you're doing that combo, forget about it.
298
00:16:08.840 --> 00:16:11.159
It's not going to do. It's not going to do
299
00:16:11.240 --> 00:16:13.240
what they're the manufacturers are.
300
00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:19.000
Look look, because there's very defined biochemistry. Right, there's what
301
00:16:19.039 --> 00:16:21.320
we call the Michalis constant. And this may get too
302
00:16:21.360 --> 00:16:23.519
technical for young but I think it's very important concept.
303
00:16:23.720 --> 00:16:28.080
There's a certain concentration of a molecule that's required to
304
00:16:28.480 --> 00:16:31.440
theoretically saturate fifty percent of the binding sites to activate
305
00:16:31.480 --> 00:16:36.399
that somatic reaction. The Machaus concept rail argentine is five micromolar.
306
00:16:36.799 --> 00:16:39.240
Even the sickest of sickest people, we've got one hundred
307
00:16:39.279 --> 00:16:41.480
to two hundred micromolar. What does that mean? We have
308
00:16:41.600 --> 00:16:45.559
twenty to forty times excess l argen. Then what's needed
309
00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:48.679
to bind to the enzyme to make nitrocoxet. We're never
310
00:16:48.759 --> 00:16:51.879
deficient in largen. It's a semi essential amino acid. We
311
00:16:51.919 --> 00:16:53.799
get it from the breakdown of protein, whether it's animal
312
00:16:53.919 --> 00:16:56.519
or plant protein, and we make it through the U recycle.
313
00:16:56.559 --> 00:16:59.240
The partially recycle is present in every cell in the
314
00:16:59.320 --> 00:17:02.799
human body, and we're easily making margining. We're constantly making situation.
315
00:17:03.200 --> 00:17:06.480
We're never deficient in these inzie and these amino acids,
316
00:17:06.640 --> 00:17:10.440
So it makes no sense to supplement. Why supplement something
317
00:17:10.440 --> 00:17:11.759
that you're not deficient.
318
00:17:11.640 --> 00:17:12.359
That you already have.
319
00:17:14.720 --> 00:17:18.599
So Nathan, go back for a moment and just give
320
00:17:18.720 --> 00:17:24.200
everybody a very good, short and easy to understand definition
321
00:17:25.799 --> 00:17:30.200
beyond it being a molecular gas. But take us a
322
00:17:30.279 --> 00:17:33.119
little bit deeper to what is nitricoxide.
323
00:17:33.680 --> 00:17:36.680
Well, it's a signaling molecular It's first discovered to be
324
00:17:36.720 --> 00:17:39.119
a vasodilator. So when it's produced in the lining and
325
00:17:39.119 --> 00:17:41.319
the blood vessel, that relaxes the smooth muscle around the
326
00:17:41.319 --> 00:17:44.960
blood vessels and it leads to vasodilation. So now we
327
00:17:44.960 --> 00:17:48.519
were getting increased oxygen nutrient delivery to downstream blood vessels.
328
00:17:50.200 --> 00:17:52.759
It's the signal that tells our own stem cells to mobilize.
329
00:17:52.799 --> 00:17:55.160
So if you have adequate nitrocoxide, you have more stem
330
00:17:55.160 --> 00:17:59.400
cells in circulation on you know, autologous our own stem cells.
331
00:18:00.440 --> 00:18:03.759
It activates an enzyme in our nucleus called telomerase, which
332
00:18:03.799 --> 00:18:07.680
prevents our telomeres from shortening, so shorter telomere, shorter life span,
333
00:18:07.799 --> 00:18:11.039
longer telomere's line, longer life span. And then the other
334
00:18:11.079 --> 00:18:14.880
important thing about longevity is it induces mitochondria biogenesis and
335
00:18:14.920 --> 00:18:18.240
it improves the efficiency of oxygen utilization to make sailor
336
00:18:18.359 --> 00:18:21.400
energy or ATP. So if you think about that, if
337
00:18:21.400 --> 00:18:24.319
you don't if you can't make nitroc oxide, you lose
338
00:18:24.359 --> 00:18:27.599
the regulation of blood flowing, develop eed high blood pressure.
339
00:18:27.920 --> 00:18:32.359
Insulin resistance, you have mitochondrial dysfunction, you have shorter telomeres,
340
00:18:32.599 --> 00:18:35.119
and you don't repair and replace dysfunctional cells because you
341
00:18:35.119 --> 00:18:38.039
don't have any stem cells in circulation. Do you want to?
342
00:18:38.160 --> 00:18:40.079
You want to? You want to lead to human optimization
343
00:18:40.160 --> 00:18:43.799
and biohacking and longer, healthier life free of disease. I
344
00:18:43.839 --> 00:18:46.559
mean you have to start at nitrocoxide. That is the foundation.
345
00:18:47.119 --> 00:18:49.039
There are other things you have to address, but without
346
00:18:49.079 --> 00:18:52.839
added oxide production, nothing else is going to optimize you.
347
00:18:53.279 --> 00:18:54.559
And this is so compelling.
348
00:18:54.640 --> 00:18:56.920
And then that means that you know, adding all the
349
00:18:56.960 --> 00:19:00.720
other you know, the five legged stool of you know
350
00:19:00.880 --> 00:19:04.799
of a diet and I mean nutrition and sleep and
351
00:19:04.839 --> 00:19:08.279
stress and all the things that go into a go
352
00:19:08.359 --> 00:19:12.680
into a healthy lifestyle that you actually without nitrogoxide, all
353
00:19:12.720 --> 00:19:17.079
of those things are not going to be nearly as effective. Right.
354
00:19:17.119 --> 00:19:20.119
You need the nitrogoxa kind of like the foundation, like
355
00:19:20.200 --> 00:19:21.000
building a house.
356
00:19:21.079 --> 00:19:22.079
That's your foundation.
357
00:19:23.079 --> 00:19:26.279
And yes, nitrocoxide is not going to replace sleep, It's
358
00:19:26.319 --> 00:19:28.599
not going to replace you know, a good diet. I
359
00:19:28.680 --> 00:19:31.480
mean it's a two way street. If you have addiput
360
00:19:31.519 --> 00:19:34.640
nitrocoxide production, you have good rest. You can improve microoxide
361
00:19:35.000 --> 00:19:38.000
production improves them sol mobilization. So you're gonna rest and repair,
362
00:19:38.480 --> 00:19:42.519
right if you need it. More diet, You're gonna high sugar,
363
00:19:42.559 --> 00:19:45.200
carbohydrates and you know all that. It's it's going to
364
00:19:45.240 --> 00:19:48.480
continue to deplete, deplete your body availability to make nitrocoxide.
365
00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:52.279
Taking oxide products isn't going to help you. I mean
366
00:19:52.319 --> 00:19:54.680
it will help you, but it's not gonna You still
367
00:19:54.720 --> 00:19:57.000
have to change your diet and do the things that
368
00:19:57.160 --> 00:19:59.960
you know lead to better natural production nitrocoxide.
369
00:20:00.119 --> 00:20:02.559
Right, So this is a collaboration, but it is something
370
00:20:02.599 --> 00:20:04.359
that is important to look at.
371
00:20:04.440 --> 00:20:06.000
So how do you get a baseline?
372
00:20:06.160 --> 00:20:08.680
How do you know what your nitrogoxide level is if
373
00:20:08.680 --> 00:20:11.759
you're starting out on a nitric oxide journey.
374
00:20:13.359 --> 00:20:16.440
Well, you know, unfortunately there's no biomarkers like blood labs
375
00:20:16.440 --> 00:20:18.119
and we can draw and give you a number of
376
00:20:18.119 --> 00:20:21.759
your nitrocoxide because again, once it's produced, it's metabolized in
377
00:20:21.759 --> 00:20:24.279
different metabolites. We've done this for you know, twenty five
378
00:20:24.359 --> 00:20:26.880
thirty years in the research lab, but unfortunately it's not
379
00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:29.920
done clinically. So what we do is we rely on symptoms.
380
00:20:30.839 --> 00:20:33.880
So the first sign and symptom to develop if your
381
00:20:33.880 --> 00:20:37.519
body becomes compromising stabilities to use. Nyitrocoxide is a rectile dysfunction.
382
00:20:37.960 --> 00:20:40.279
And this is just in mail. It's a female and
383
00:20:40.319 --> 00:20:42.880
if you think about it, to get an erection, either
384
00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:45.519
a penile or clinical label erection, we have to increase
385
00:20:46.440 --> 00:20:49.720
blood flood flood, not ngorgement, So you have to dilate
386
00:20:49.720 --> 00:20:52.480
the blood vessels. Nitrocoxide dilates the blood vessels. If you
387
00:20:52.480 --> 00:20:56.039
can't make nitrocoxide, we don't get vasodilation, we don't get engorgement.
388
00:20:56.400 --> 00:20:59.160
And that is a rectile dysfunction. It's called the canary
389
00:20:59.160 --> 00:21:01.160
and the coal mine, but because it it is the
390
00:21:01.240 --> 00:21:03.599
canary in the coal mine, because if you have in
391
00:21:03.680 --> 00:21:06.319
the field of dysfunction in the vascular bed of your
392
00:21:06.319 --> 00:21:09.559
sex organs, that same dysfunctions occurring in your heart, in
393
00:21:09.559 --> 00:21:11.720
your brain, in your lungs, in your liver. It's a
394
00:21:11.759 --> 00:21:15.880
systemic disease that manifests first when we're trying to dilate
395
00:21:15.920 --> 00:21:18.559
the blood vessels on demand. And then number two, your
396
00:21:18.559 --> 00:21:22.359
blood pressure starts to go up because without adequate nitrocoxide,
397
00:21:22.359 --> 00:21:24.200
now we've got the same volume of blood going through
398
00:21:24.200 --> 00:21:27.880
smaller blood vessels and pressure does out. Number three you
399
00:21:27.880 --> 00:21:31.440
start to get insulin resistance in metabolic disease. Nine out
400
00:21:31.480 --> 00:21:35.039
of ten Americans are metabolically unhealthy. Number four, you can't
401
00:21:35.160 --> 00:21:37.440
maintain an exercise regimen because if you can't dilate the
402
00:21:37.480 --> 00:21:39.759
blood vessels to the heart or the skelele to muscle
403
00:21:40.119 --> 00:21:43.759
when you're exercising, you tire, You get lactic acid build up,
404
00:21:44.119 --> 00:21:46.759
and you can no longer maintain that exercise regional. And
405
00:21:46.799 --> 00:21:49.279
then number five, you start to get brain foged, mold,
406
00:21:49.400 --> 00:21:53.319
cognitive impairment, dementia, and eventually Alzheimer's. So those are the
407
00:21:53.359 --> 00:21:56.480
things that you should pay attention on. And you know,
408
00:21:56.680 --> 00:22:00.240
the analogy I use is that you're, you know, our smartphone.
409
00:22:00.559 --> 00:22:02.319
When we look at our smartphone and we see the
410
00:22:02.319 --> 00:22:04.680
red light come on here that our batteries low, people
411
00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:06.119
pay and they go, oh shit, I got to charge
412
00:22:06.119 --> 00:22:09.920
my battery. Ed is your red light coming on? Senior batteries?
413
00:22:10.599 --> 00:22:15.799
High blood pressure, insular resistance, exercise intolerance, cognitive brain full
414
00:22:16.200 --> 00:22:19.640
that's your body telling you, hey, I need some nitrococide.
415
00:22:19.640 --> 00:22:22.039
I'm getting low, and so pay attention. Your body's always
416
00:22:22.039 --> 00:22:23.960
talking to you. He's going to pay attention.
417
00:22:25.000 --> 00:22:28.480
But yet, Nathan, if you're going to a even a
418
00:22:28.480 --> 00:22:33.200
functional medicine doctor, how often if they have these symptoms,
419
00:22:33.200 --> 00:22:35.759
are they going to tell someone to go get nitrogoxide?
420
00:22:36.480 --> 00:22:39.039
You know, talk to me doctor Brian and go to
421
00:22:39.160 --> 00:22:42.400
N one oh one your company and you know, start
422
00:22:42.559 --> 00:22:45.640
using the product. So you know in your experience, are
423
00:22:45.680 --> 00:22:49.440
people that are in your world, in your wheelhouse are
424
00:22:49.440 --> 00:22:53.599
they are they advocating that as a solution for those
425
00:22:53.680 --> 00:22:54.640
kinds of symptoms.
426
00:22:55.680 --> 00:22:58.119
You know, we're making some progress, but here's the problem.
427
00:22:58.960 --> 00:23:01.839
I mean, as this market is expanding and the awareness
428
00:23:01.880 --> 00:23:06.319
around nitrocoxide is growing, more companies are coming in trying
429
00:23:06.359 --> 00:23:10.279
to sell a nitrocoxide product. Yes, doctors will recommend it
430
00:23:10.319 --> 00:23:12.240
because they've got sales people in there. They hear a
431
00:23:12.240 --> 00:23:14.119
webinar or here's something they go, well, let me try
432
00:23:14.119 --> 00:23:16.880
this nitrocoxide pid or I saw a commercial on TV.
433
00:23:17.559 --> 00:23:19.880
And then they say, well to take this be product
434
00:23:19.880 --> 00:23:22.400
and then come back. Whether patient comes back and they go, well,
435
00:23:22.400 --> 00:23:25.440
this didn't help me, and then we lose. We lose
436
00:23:25.480 --> 00:23:29.480
the conversation. And it's not nitrocoxide didn't work for that patient.
437
00:23:29.480 --> 00:23:31.960
It's because that product cannot, did not and will not
438
00:23:32.079 --> 00:23:36.200
ever produce nitrocoxide in that patient because that product doesn't
439
00:23:36.200 --> 00:23:39.519
address the root cause of their deficiency, because they're either ignorant,
440
00:23:39.759 --> 00:23:41.920
and ignorance is fine, it's just a lack of knowledge,
441
00:23:42.279 --> 00:23:46.000
or they're deceptive and fraudulent, which any companies out there
442
00:23:46.240 --> 00:23:50.480
who are intentionally defrauding their customers because it's a it's
443
00:23:50.519 --> 00:23:52.759
a cheaper product that they can sell for higher profits
444
00:23:53.000 --> 00:23:56.039
and it cannot and will not produce nitrocoxide. And I
445
00:23:56.079 --> 00:23:59.559
think that's why these conversations are so important, because all products,
446
00:23:59.599 --> 00:24:02.400
not just notox have can be based on science and
447
00:24:02.480 --> 00:24:04.640
it has to be personalized. And that's why I like
448
00:24:04.680 --> 00:24:07.640
the functional integrative docs because they have time to spend
449
00:24:07.640 --> 00:24:11.160
with their patients to get an insight into their lifestyle,
450
00:24:11.319 --> 00:24:13.960
their diet, what are their deficiencies, what are their talks
451
00:24:13.960 --> 00:24:18.680
and exposures, and then develop personalized therapies for them. Well,
452
00:24:18.680 --> 00:24:20.960
if you go to standard allopathic doc, you get five
453
00:24:20.960 --> 00:24:23.519
minutes with you and which is oh, you got ed.
454
00:24:23.680 --> 00:24:24.839
Here's a sildenti fil.
455
00:24:24.799 --> 00:24:30.240
Or vitrop look at, give me some viagra, an.
456
00:24:30.079 --> 00:24:33.400
Acid hypn or arb for your hypertension. Here's some met
457
00:24:33.480 --> 00:24:37.160
foreman for your diabetes. And here's the ambient because you
458
00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:38.759
can't sleep, and then you wake up and you're on
459
00:24:38.839 --> 00:24:41.920
a dozen different medications, and people wonder where they're sick. Right.
460
00:24:42.559 --> 00:24:44.960
So you mentioned though that you're developing drugs.
461
00:24:45.000 --> 00:24:48.359
Now, so how did you cross that bridge to get
462
00:24:48.440 --> 00:24:52.680
to the allopathic community and get them to agree to
463
00:24:52.799 --> 00:24:57.839
work with you on on nitrogogxide in other words, including
464
00:24:57.920 --> 00:25:03.480
nitrogoxat in in an pharmaceutical side of the medical world.
465
00:25:03.720 --> 00:25:05.640
Well, I can tell you it was never my intent
466
00:25:05.799 --> 00:25:09.079
going into academia to be a developer of dietary supplements.
467
00:25:09.119 --> 00:25:12.559
That was never even online radar, right. But because we
468
00:25:12.599 --> 00:25:15.720
had developed a way to produce nitrocoxide, and because I
469
00:25:15.799 --> 00:25:18.599
knew how to do this through natural products and through
470
00:25:18.640 --> 00:25:22.000
food and through modification of the microbiome and affecting the
471
00:25:22.319 --> 00:25:24.839
structure and function of the enzyme, we could do this
472
00:25:24.880 --> 00:25:28.000
through natural products and through dietary supplements. But the goal
473
00:25:28.079 --> 00:25:31.319
all along was to develop drug therapy how to deliver
474
00:25:31.400 --> 00:25:35.839
nitro patient setting. So we're not convincing the allopathic community
475
00:25:35.880 --> 00:25:38.200
to work with us because they can't because we don't
476
00:25:38.240 --> 00:25:40.599
have an FDA drug approved on the market. So what
477
00:25:40.640 --> 00:25:43.400
we do is we go to the FDA we have
478
00:25:43.480 --> 00:25:45.640
meetings with the FDA. So look, here's what we want
479
00:25:45.680 --> 00:25:47.359
to do. We want to go after schemic car disease.
480
00:25:47.680 --> 00:25:51.079
Here's our nitric oxide releasing drug that when we take this,
481
00:25:51.200 --> 00:25:54.599
we dilate the blood vessels, we relieve the schemic pain
482
00:25:54.640 --> 00:25:57.119
known as ANGEL and we can prolong exercise induced agen
483
00:25:57.519 --> 00:25:59.759
And by the way, it works better than isosorb by
484
00:25:59.759 --> 00:26:03.160
diet nitrade or nitroglycery, and it's safer, so we can
485
00:26:03.200 --> 00:26:05.640
miss the FDA. We're gonna design a clinical trial. We're
486
00:26:05.640 --> 00:26:07.920
gonna test this in a double blind fall seabook controlled study,
487
00:26:08.480 --> 00:26:11.319
and if we hit our endpoints, the FDA agreed that
488
00:26:11.440 --> 00:26:13.400
they'll approved this drug, and then we've got a new
489
00:26:13.440 --> 00:26:16.279
drug indication for a scheme of card disease. We did
490
00:26:16.279 --> 00:26:19.279
the same thing with Alzheimer's. You go all the FDA go. Look,
491
00:26:19.519 --> 00:26:22.319
Alzheimer's is a metabolic master of disease. We're developing a
492
00:26:22.359 --> 00:26:26.200
nitrocoxet releasing drug that improves glucose ub take that improve
493
00:26:26.279 --> 00:26:29.759
the profusion of the brain, overcomes focal a schemia, we
494
00:26:29.759 --> 00:26:32.519
don't get misfolding of proteins, and it addresses the root
495
00:26:32.559 --> 00:26:35.599
cause of dementia. Alzheimer's. So we're gonna design a clinical trial.
496
00:26:35.680 --> 00:26:39.519
We're gonna test it in a placebo controlled randomized clinical trial,
497
00:26:39.880 --> 00:26:43.720
and if we hit these endpoints, well, can we agree
498
00:26:43.720 --> 00:26:47.119
to approve this drug based on the design of this study.
499
00:26:47.839 --> 00:26:49.440
It's we have to go to the FDA, we have
500
00:26:49.440 --> 00:26:52.359
to design clinical studies, we have to do the clinical studies,
501
00:26:52.799 --> 00:26:55.759
and these are tens of millions of dollars and take many.
502
00:26:55.599 --> 00:26:59.759
Many years. I was just about to saying this is very.
503
00:26:59.599 --> 00:27:03.400
Cost It's very costly, you know. And I've intentionally avoided
504
00:27:04.039 --> 00:27:07.279
private equity money of venture capital money because I don't
505
00:27:07.319 --> 00:27:11.160
want these people interfering with the science, because they're more
506
00:27:11.200 --> 00:27:14.799
interested in making money than advancing the science. And exactly utually,
507
00:27:14.839 --> 00:27:16.359
for me, I'm not doing this for the money. I've
508
00:27:16.359 --> 00:27:19.039
made enough money in my career to live happily ever
509
00:27:19.079 --> 00:27:21.640
after so I can be bought and I will not
510
00:27:21.759 --> 00:27:23.599
be bought. But it's taken me a little bit longer
511
00:27:23.640 --> 00:27:26.759
because I have to self fund these studies and go
512
00:27:26.799 --> 00:27:31.480
out and raise money from people, individuals who know what
513
00:27:31.519 --> 00:27:34.480
we're doing, who understand what we're doing, who understand the
514
00:27:34.480 --> 00:27:37.839
global impact if we're successful, not if we're successful when
515
00:27:37.880 --> 00:27:40.200
we're successful, how this is going to change the world.
516
00:27:40.559 --> 00:27:42.720
And we're not doing it for the money. We're doing
517
00:27:42.759 --> 00:27:43.680
it to do the right thing.
518
00:27:44.960 --> 00:27:47.559
So I want to ask you, because we talked about
519
00:27:47.599 --> 00:27:50.559
the baseline, how do you measure and you said, okay,
520
00:27:50.640 --> 00:27:53.960
you look at the symptoms. I wanted a more quantitative
521
00:27:54.000 --> 00:27:56.319
measurement when we first met each other, so I asked
522
00:27:56.799 --> 00:28:00.559
cal Roy ed Hoy is a good friend of.
523
00:28:00.440 --> 00:28:02.960
Mine, and uh, you know, you know who.
524
00:28:02.799 --> 00:28:06.200
They are, and I assume that they're doing the glycocalyx
525
00:28:06.240 --> 00:28:10.359
and the they have a they have a nitric oxide product,
526
00:28:10.440 --> 00:28:11.359
and I.
527
00:28:11.319 --> 00:28:14.200
Asked them, they don't have a nitrocoxide product. They get
528
00:28:14.240 --> 00:28:19.000
potassium nitrate in a capsule. Nitride is not nitrocoxide. Okay,
529
00:28:19.240 --> 00:28:21.359
that's the record that I want to always keep.
530
00:28:21.240 --> 00:28:23.240
String Okay, sorry about that.
531
00:28:23.519 --> 00:28:27.559
We can electrocoxide product, but it's not a product.
532
00:28:30.400 --> 00:28:33.359
But however, they used the strips and I just had
533
00:28:33.400 --> 00:28:37.519
one right here, which I did right this morning, uh before,
534
00:28:37.559 --> 00:28:39.400
but I did it after I ate and I realized
535
00:28:39.400 --> 00:28:41.359
you slosed to do these on an empty stomach, and
536
00:28:41.400 --> 00:28:43.359
I so I probably I didn't do it right.
537
00:28:43.759 --> 00:28:47.880
But this is the one that Ed sent me and you.
538
00:28:47.799 --> 00:28:51.039
Said you developed those strips twenty five years ago and
539
00:28:51.079 --> 00:28:54.119
that you don't really use them as a measurement.
540
00:28:54.240 --> 00:28:57.119
So why is that? And and you know.
541
00:28:57.599 --> 00:29:00.279
If you wanted just a quick like, okay, how am
542
00:29:00.319 --> 00:29:02.960
I doing? And you know, yeah, I don't have any
543
00:29:03.000 --> 00:29:06.880
symptoms that you just described. I'm perfectly uh, you know,
544
00:29:07.119 --> 00:29:10.079
seemed perfectly fine. But I want to know, you know,
545
00:29:10.279 --> 00:29:12.640
is this product that I take, which I take your
546
00:29:12.720 --> 00:29:16.960
lodgingery every day, is this making a difference? And you know,
547
00:29:17.319 --> 00:29:19.880
and you know, we are a kind of a quantitative
548
00:29:20.759 --> 00:29:22.960
for sure. We always like to compete with each other
549
00:29:23.000 --> 00:29:26.440
and know what where what our score is, right, So this.
550
00:29:26.559 --> 00:29:28.920
Is one of the ways you do that. So so
551
00:29:28.960 --> 00:29:31.960
what else what can we do? If you don't, I'll
552
00:29:31.960 --> 00:29:32.359
tell you.
553
00:29:32.440 --> 00:29:34.799
I'll tell you the story, the backstory with those test strips.
554
00:29:35.640 --> 00:29:38.200
So when I launched my very first product technology, no
555
00:29:38.200 --> 00:29:41.240
one knew what nitrocoxide was. And the number one question
556
00:29:41.319 --> 00:29:43.519
we had, and we did market uh focus groups in
557
00:29:43.599 --> 00:29:45.720
market research, was how do I know if I need it?
558
00:29:46.599 --> 00:29:48.200
So the only way to do this, I mean, we
559
00:29:48.240 --> 00:29:50.640
could draw blood and that's what we did in the
560
00:29:50.640 --> 00:29:53.000
research lab. And I've published over one hundred peeroview papers
561
00:29:53.039 --> 00:29:56.839
on mapping out these nitrocoxxide metaboloids. But I thought, well,
562
00:29:56.880 --> 00:29:59.400
I can develop a salary test strip. So in two
563
00:29:59.440 --> 00:30:02.759
thousand and nine, I developed the first and only non
564
00:30:02.799 --> 00:30:06.039
invasive point of care diagnostic for nitrocoxide. And it's that
565
00:30:06.119 --> 00:30:10.240
exact same chemistry that's on that test strip. Factorum, we
566
00:30:10.319 --> 00:30:13.279
launched them, I filed patents on it, and several years
567
00:30:13.359 --> 00:30:16.599
into By the way, it's very old chemistry. It's called
568
00:30:16.640 --> 00:30:19.119
the grease reaction. It's probably over one hundred year old
569
00:30:19.200 --> 00:30:24.240
known chemical reaction. The chances of getting a patent on
570
00:30:24.279 --> 00:30:29.079
that chemistry was very low. So probably in twenty twelve
571
00:30:29.079 --> 00:30:31.400
twenty thirteen, when the bills were starting to come into
572
00:30:31.400 --> 00:30:35.680
the University of Texas on prosecuting that patent, and because
573
00:30:35.680 --> 00:30:37.680
we weren't making money on it, the university wasn't making
574
00:30:37.720 --> 00:30:40.640
money on it, agreed, Okay, let's abandon the patent because
575
00:30:41.240 --> 00:30:44.279
it's a tool, right you can. If you know what
576
00:30:44.359 --> 00:30:47.440
you're measuring, it's a useful tool. If you don't know
577
00:30:47.480 --> 00:30:51.680
what you're measuring, it's a deceptive tool. So number one,
578
00:30:51.759 --> 00:30:55.680
it is not a nitric oxide test trip. Now there's
579
00:30:56.240 --> 00:30:59.319
at least three or four companies out there selling my
580
00:30:59.440 --> 00:31:02.680
original salbrate test strips because I banon the patent and
581
00:31:02.759 --> 00:31:05.319
they certainly can do it, but they're still using it,
582
00:31:05.880 --> 00:31:09.240
and so what they're measuring, it's not measuring nitrocoxide. The
583
00:31:09.319 --> 00:31:12.880
chemistry is called the grease reaction. You put acidified sulfonillamite
584
00:31:12.920 --> 00:31:15.559
on that test strip, it reacts with nitrite in the
585
00:31:15.680 --> 00:31:18.880
saliva and it forms a diazo compound. It turns pink
586
00:31:19.640 --> 00:31:22.440
the five hundred and forty enemes, So if it turns pink,
587
00:31:22.519 --> 00:31:26.000
it tells us that your saliva's enriched did nitrite. It's
588
00:31:26.039 --> 00:31:29.559
nothing to do with nitrocoxide. But if you understand the
589
00:31:29.880 --> 00:31:34.759
metabolism sentaro salbrat circuit, that what it's really measuring is
590
00:31:35.599 --> 00:31:38.079
do you have the right oral bacteria and if you're
591
00:31:38.079 --> 00:31:41.359
getting enough nitrate from your diet, are the bacteria in
592
00:31:41.400 --> 00:31:45.119
your mouth on your tongue converting that nitrate into nitrite.
593
00:31:45.720 --> 00:31:49.559
That's what we're detecting. But it's also detecting the immune
594
00:31:49.559 --> 00:31:52.799
response to an oral infection. So if you have an
595
00:31:52.799 --> 00:31:55.279
active oral infection, if you've got infected root canals, if
596
00:31:55.279 --> 00:31:59.440
you've got cavitations, if you've got oral dyspiosis and there's
597
00:31:59.440 --> 00:32:03.519
an immune rey action occurring, our immune cells, macrophages, neutrophils,
598
00:32:03.519 --> 00:32:06.720
and monocytes produced nitric oxide so oxidized to tride in
599
00:32:06.759 --> 00:32:09.680
your saliva and you're picking up a local immune response.
600
00:32:10.680 --> 00:32:12.839
So the one of the reasons I abandoned that is
601
00:32:12.880 --> 00:32:16.599
because we would see people come in with high blood pressure,
602
00:32:17.119 --> 00:32:20.440
ten years of rectile dysfunction, they were diabetic, they were obese,
603
00:32:20.839 --> 00:32:24.160
they had a fatty fatty liver disease, and was say, here,
604
00:32:24.680 --> 00:32:26.400
use this test trip and they would light it up
605
00:32:26.480 --> 00:32:29.079
like a Christmas tree. You could see I make plenty
606
00:32:29.200 --> 00:32:32.680
nitric oxide and they go, no, we send him to
607
00:32:32.720 --> 00:32:35.079
a Dennis. We do a three DCT cone. He's eat
608
00:32:35.160 --> 00:32:38.319
up with oral infections. Right, and now we know that
609
00:32:38.440 --> 00:32:42.279
most people are walking around with asymptomatic infections and it's
610
00:32:42.319 --> 00:32:45.799
a it's a false positive, and it's a very dangerous
611
00:32:45.839 --> 00:32:48.240
false positive. So that's why I tell people, if you
612
00:32:48.400 --> 00:32:51.279
understand what that's measuring, and now you can interrogate it.
613
00:32:51.359 --> 00:32:54.000
If you're low, they're not a false negatives. And that's
614
00:32:54.000 --> 00:32:56.240
really if there's any utility to it, if you spit
615
00:32:56.319 --> 00:32:58.880
on it and it's low. You're low, you're nitric oxide
616
00:32:58.920 --> 00:33:02.480
deficient because you have any field dysfunction. Is it because
617
00:33:02.480 --> 00:33:04.680
you don't have the right oral bacteria. Is it because
618
00:33:04.680 --> 00:33:06.799
you're not getting enough nitrate from your diet. Is it
619
00:33:06.880 --> 00:33:09.079
because you take in acids or your stomach's not making
620
00:33:09.119 --> 00:33:11.880
stomach acid? Is it because you have a you know,
621
00:33:12.160 --> 00:33:16.759
silent receptor transported blockage in the in the salavary glands,
622
00:33:16.880 --> 00:33:19.519
because you have chogrin syndrome. I mean, there's a laundry
623
00:33:19.599 --> 00:33:22.400
list of things that could explain why you're nitric oxide defission.
624
00:33:23.400 --> 00:33:25.200
But then if you don't understand that, how do you
625
00:33:25.279 --> 00:33:29.680
fix it? Then telling you you're low, but don't understand
626
00:33:29.720 --> 00:33:32.759
the physiology about chemistry of why you're testing low, and
627
00:33:32.759 --> 00:33:34.720
they want to get they think they can fix your
628
00:33:34.799 --> 00:33:37.920
problem based on that test trip. I mean, it would
629
00:33:37.920 --> 00:33:39.599
be humorous if it wasn't dangerous.
630
00:33:40.759 --> 00:33:44.559
That's pretty amazing that you could get a bright pink result,
631
00:33:44.680 --> 00:33:47.079
think you're ok, you're great, and yet it's really an
632
00:33:47.200 --> 00:33:51.200
oral infection that's causing you to get this bright pink result.
633
00:33:52.359 --> 00:33:54.119
You know, and then people just going about their business,
634
00:33:54.160 --> 00:33:56.680
they never go see a biological dentist to look deeper.
635
00:33:56.720 --> 00:34:00.079
Than an X ray into a CT and realize they
636
00:34:00.079 --> 00:34:03.519
have an asymptomatic osteomocrotic infection going on. That's going to
637
00:34:03.599 --> 00:34:09.119
cause enormous problems fibromyalgia, autoimmune disease, cancers. I mean, it's
638
00:34:09.320 --> 00:34:09.840
bad news.
639
00:34:10.880 --> 00:34:14.119
So let's start from the top. Okay, starting at the head,
640
00:34:14.559 --> 00:34:17.159
because I'm going to go from the head to the toe. Okay,
641
00:34:17.239 --> 00:34:20.480
so let's I'm probably starting with the biggest one of all,
642
00:34:20.519 --> 00:34:22.400
which is Alzheimer's because it's the brain.
643
00:34:22.519 --> 00:34:24.760
But why don't you start there and say, you know,
644
00:34:24.960 --> 00:34:26.719
explain how the influence of.
645
00:34:27.519 --> 00:34:32.440
Low nitric oxide can affect the result in the production
646
00:34:32.639 --> 00:34:38.239
of of of beta amyloid or let's just say Alzheimer's
647
00:34:38.320 --> 00:34:38.880
or dimension.
648
00:34:39.840 --> 00:34:42.440
Well, there's a progression of this, right, it's called mod
649
00:34:42.519 --> 00:34:48.599
cognitive impairment, called Bastard dementia, Alzheimer's disease exactly just like
650
00:34:48.719 --> 00:34:51.800
any any disease, there's a progression. And so if you
651
00:34:51.880 --> 00:34:53.639
catch this early on, what do we call it brain
652
00:34:53.719 --> 00:34:56.239
fog or MCI mon cognitive impairment. If you look at
653
00:34:57.639 --> 00:34:59.320
cerebral blood flow, and you can do this through a
654
00:34:59.360 --> 00:35:03.159
functional MRI, you can do it through spec scans, which
655
00:35:03.159 --> 00:35:05.840
I like spec scins and doctor Daniel Laman's word, because
656
00:35:05.840 --> 00:35:08.400
it really tells us what parts of the brain are
657
00:35:08.480 --> 00:35:12.039
perfused in which are not, and so in these mild
658
00:35:12.119 --> 00:35:16.239
cognitive impairments, really any neurological disease, there's what's called focal
659
00:35:16.280 --> 00:35:18.239
a schemium. So if you look at a spec scan
660
00:35:18.360 --> 00:35:21.480
and dementia or Alzheimer's, the prefone of cortex and parts
661
00:35:21.519 --> 00:35:23.800
of the brain are don't show up on the spec scin,
662
00:35:24.320 --> 00:35:25.920
and that's because that part of the brain is not
663
00:35:26.000 --> 00:35:31.000
getting perfused. So it's called vascular dementia. Why because there's
664
00:35:31.039 --> 00:35:34.559
a vaster component to the dementia. There's loss of regulation
665
00:35:34.639 --> 00:35:37.039
of blood flow. Just like if you lose the regulation
666
00:35:37.119 --> 00:35:39.239
of blood flow to the sex organs, they fail. If
667
00:35:39.280 --> 00:35:41.400
you lose regulation of blood flow of the brain, it
668
00:35:41.559 --> 00:35:45.400
fails and symptoms manifest depending upon which readiers of the
669
00:35:45.440 --> 00:35:49.320
brain develop a schemi or hypoxia. And then number two,
670
00:35:49.760 --> 00:35:53.320
and you've heard this called Alzheimer's, we called diabetes type three.
671
00:35:53.920 --> 00:35:57.719
It's insulin resistance in the brain. So number one, if
672
00:35:57.719 --> 00:36:00.280
you're not getting oxygen and nutrients to the parts of
673
00:36:00.320 --> 00:36:02.840
the brain and you can't get glucose into the cell
674
00:36:03.000 --> 00:36:05.199
for that cell to make ATP or cell your energy.
675
00:36:05.199 --> 00:36:07.719
If that's cell to do its job, you get misfolding
676
00:36:07.760 --> 00:36:11.039
a protein. And then what is that misfolded protein. We
677
00:36:11.119 --> 00:36:14.199
call that tau tangle. We call it amyloid plaque. That's
678
00:36:14.239 --> 00:36:16.599
what shows up in the later stages. So how you
679
00:36:16.719 --> 00:36:20.880
fix it. You perfuse the brain, You give nitrocoxide, you
680
00:36:20.960 --> 00:36:23.920
dilate the blood vessels. In twenty eleven, my research group
681
00:36:24.039 --> 00:36:26.400
was the first group in the history of nitrocoxide to
682
00:36:26.440 --> 00:36:30.960
show that nitrocoxide is required for insulin signaling. For insulin
683
00:36:31.000 --> 00:36:32.880
to do its job, it binds to the instant receptor,
684
00:36:32.920 --> 00:36:38.239
starts an intrasidar signaling cascade, activates nitrocoxide production. Nitrocoxide activates
685
00:36:38.280 --> 00:36:41.079
glute forourd glute four goes to the membrane brings glucose in.
686
00:36:41.559 --> 00:36:44.639
Without nitrocoxide production, glute four never gets the signal. You
687
00:36:44.719 --> 00:36:48.320
develop insular resistance. So instant resistance is a symptom of
688
00:36:48.440 --> 00:36:53.239
nitrocoxide deficiency. So when we give nitrocoxide to dementia patients,
689
00:36:53.280 --> 00:36:57.119
we dilate the bloodvessils, We perfuse the brain. We show
690
00:36:57.119 --> 00:37:00.960
the improvement on spec skins and NMRI, and we improve
691
00:37:01.039 --> 00:37:04.960
glucose ubtake into the cell. So if we're delivering oxygen,
692
00:37:05.000 --> 00:37:08.599
delivering nutrients, activating mitochondric getting glucose into the cell, so
693
00:37:08.639 --> 00:37:12.480
the mitochondric can make sailor energy and atp the proteins
694
00:37:12.519 --> 00:37:14.360
do their job, the enzymes do their job. You don't
695
00:37:14.360 --> 00:37:17.119
get misfolding of proteins. There's no tall tangle, there's no
696
00:37:17.239 --> 00:37:21.159
amyloid plaque, and there's no loss of cognition. That's why
697
00:37:21.280 --> 00:37:24.639
nitric oxide will be the end the cure to Alzheimer's,
698
00:37:24.679 --> 00:37:28.079
and that's why all drugs against Alzheimer's have failed, because
699
00:37:28.159 --> 00:37:31.760
amyloid plaque and tall tangles do not cause disease. They're
700
00:37:31.800 --> 00:37:35.639
the consequence of disease. And developing drug targets towards the
701
00:37:35.679 --> 00:37:39.800
consequence of any disease is a sure failure. And it's
702
00:37:39.880 --> 00:37:43.239
unfortunate that companies just spent billions and billions of dollars
703
00:37:43.320 --> 00:37:45.719
of taxpayer money on target.
704
00:37:46.599 --> 00:37:50.880
I know doctor Gale Brettison, who is the father of.
705
00:37:53.280 --> 00:37:58.920
The natural cures to Alzheimer's, which was on my podcast,
706
00:37:59.000 --> 00:38:00.800
and he said that same thing.
707
00:38:01.360 --> 00:38:04.679
You know that they're just missing what is it forty billion.
708
00:38:04.400 --> 00:38:07.519
Dollars or something like that has been spent on Alzheimer's
709
00:38:07.599 --> 00:38:09.599
drugs with no success.
710
00:38:10.039 --> 00:38:12.320
That that's like shameful and.
711
00:38:14.599 --> 00:38:16.280
Sorry, it's very predictable.
712
00:38:16.599 --> 00:38:20.360
Yeah, why why have they ignored NITROGOTSA.
713
00:38:20.440 --> 00:38:24.000
I mean, if they would be so easy to with
714
00:38:24.159 --> 00:38:28.480
the current drugs to now incorporate the knowledge that you're
715
00:38:28.599 --> 00:38:32.159
providing and the world you know of medicine is providing
716
00:38:32.239 --> 00:38:35.920
with nitrogotxa, why haven't they recognized that and done something
717
00:38:35.960 --> 00:38:36.320
about it?
718
00:38:37.440 --> 00:38:40.320
Well, Number one, these companies are for profit companies, right,
719
00:38:40.400 --> 00:38:42.320
and I have a number of patents on ways that
720
00:38:42.400 --> 00:38:45.159
we deliver nitrocoxide. Look, there's many ways to skin a cat.
721
00:38:45.239 --> 00:38:50.000
They can, there's other technologies out there. But in big business,
722
00:38:50.280 --> 00:38:53.159
there is no money in cures, right, the money and
723
00:38:53.280 --> 00:38:56.960
the trillion dollar big form of business is dependent upon
724
00:38:57.119 --> 00:39:00.719
monthly recurring revenue, getting people on drug and keeping them
725
00:39:00.800 --> 00:39:02.440
on drugs for the rest of em No matter what
726
00:39:02.559 --> 00:39:05.400
business you're in, a for profit business has two goals.
727
00:39:05.440 --> 00:39:07.840
Get as many customers as you can and retain the
728
00:39:07.920 --> 00:39:10.880
customer for as long as you can. Yeah, that's that's
729
00:39:10.920 --> 00:39:11.440
the big I.
730
00:39:11.440 --> 00:39:14.679
Mean, the drug companies have the best business model that
731
00:39:14.880 --> 00:39:18.159
exists in the world because they can't.
732
00:39:18.480 --> 00:39:20.239
They basically capture you.
733
00:39:20.440 --> 00:39:22.559
You know, you take one drug to help another drug
734
00:39:22.639 --> 00:39:26.000
that helps another drug, and you know, so basically, yeah,
735
00:39:26.039 --> 00:39:30.639
I mean it's crazy because they you're basically addicted to
736
00:39:30.800 --> 00:39:34.920
using pharmaceutical drugs and it's a it's a downward spiral,
737
00:39:35.000 --> 00:39:36.039
it's a big black hole.
738
00:39:36.760 --> 00:39:39.360
No, it's it's the best business model in the world,
739
00:39:39.519 --> 00:39:43.800
multi trillion dollar global economy. But what's the expense. The
740
00:39:43.840 --> 00:39:46.599
expense is our own health and drugs have made.
741
00:39:48.000 --> 00:39:51.719
Okay, so let's go to the nasal the next I'm
742
00:39:51.760 --> 00:39:52.880
heading down south.
743
00:39:52.960 --> 00:39:55.440
Okay, so we're going to end up at erectile dysfunction,
744
00:39:55.559 --> 00:39:56.960
but I want to make sure we have time to
745
00:39:57.039 --> 00:39:57.199
do it.
746
00:39:57.679 --> 00:40:00.840
So what about the nasal breathing and and versus the
747
00:40:01.079 --> 00:40:04.480
mouth breathing. Why is that beneficial? And what can people
748
00:40:04.559 --> 00:40:05.960
do to change their habit?
749
00:40:06.800 --> 00:40:09.360
Well, the same enzyme that's found in are endothelo cells
750
00:40:09.400 --> 00:40:12.960
that produces nitrocoxide. The nitrocoxide synthase enzyme is also found
751
00:40:13.000 --> 00:40:15.880
in our upper airways, the epithelial cells. So we do
752
00:40:16.039 --> 00:40:18.960
nasal breathing, it activates these epithilal cells and turns on
753
00:40:19.119 --> 00:40:24.719
nitro production. We do dasel breathing, we're actually delivering nitrocoxide
754
00:40:24.760 --> 00:40:28.159
gas into the pulmary circulation, so we're dilating the pulmonary arteries.
755
00:40:28.199 --> 00:40:32.199
Now we're matching ventilation to perfusion, and we're improving tissue oxygenation.
756
00:40:32.679 --> 00:40:36.119
But it's also dilating the bronchiles. So nitrocoxide is a
757
00:40:36.159 --> 00:40:39.920
smooth muscle relaxing, relaxes the smooth muscles on the blood vessels,
758
00:40:39.920 --> 00:40:42.960
relaxes smooth muscles around the bronchiles. So now we're dilating
759
00:40:43.000 --> 00:40:48.039
the bronochiles, dilating the arteries, improving oxygenation. But if the
760
00:40:48.199 --> 00:40:50.280
enzyme is uncoupled and not functional, so if you have
761
00:40:50.400 --> 00:40:54.039
nithenyal dysfunction, you have epithial dysfunction. And we tested this.
762
00:40:54.159 --> 00:40:56.440
We take young healthy individuals do nasal breathing. We can
763
00:40:56.480 --> 00:40:59.000
detect nitrocoxide out of the ease heal breath. We take
764
00:40:59.000 --> 00:41:01.679
a fifty year old person with EED do nase of breathing.
765
00:41:01.719 --> 00:41:05.199
There's no nitrocoxide. So again we have to focus on
766
00:41:05.400 --> 00:41:08.800
restoring the function of the nos enzyme. Rgentie didn't go
767
00:41:08.920 --> 00:41:11.840
fix it. Beats aren't gonna fix it. Centrally, it didn't
768
00:41:11.840 --> 00:41:15.360
go fix it. I have to understand the enzomology about chemistry. Now,
769
00:41:16.239 --> 00:41:19.360
if your mouth breathe, not only are you bypassing that
770
00:41:19.519 --> 00:41:23.800
nitrocoxide production pathway, but now you're you're completely oxygenating the
771
00:41:23.960 --> 00:41:27.599
oral cavity. You're changing the oral microbiome, You're acidifying the saliva.
772
00:41:28.039 --> 00:41:31.719
All the nitrocoxide producing bacteria go away, all the pathogens
773
00:41:31.760 --> 00:41:34.920
come in. Now you have chronic halatosis, you have an
774
00:41:34.960 --> 00:41:37.639
acidic saliva, you have carrious causing bacteria, you have paradonal
775
00:41:37.679 --> 00:41:41.559
disease causing bacteria. Performonis gingivite is all the really bad
776
00:41:41.719 --> 00:41:46.440
red pathogens you see on dental pathogens and start to
777
00:41:46.480 --> 00:41:49.840
show up. And you don't oxygenate at night, And so
778
00:41:50.199 --> 00:41:53.079
I mean in ten time increase in all cause mortality
779
00:41:53.119 --> 00:41:53.800
through mouthbreathing.
780
00:41:54.840 --> 00:41:55.719
So that means.
781
00:41:57.639 --> 00:41:59.679
What you do in the daytime, you know, you have
782
00:41:59.760 --> 00:42:02.400
to be aware of that, but at night it's when
783
00:42:02.480 --> 00:42:05.800
most people really are doing the wrong thing, which is
784
00:42:05.920 --> 00:42:09.679
mouth breathing. So tape do mouth taping, which I read
785
00:42:09.719 --> 00:42:13.800
about from a number of biological dentists that they're advocating that.
786
00:42:14.079 --> 00:42:17.000
So you can buy those you know mouth tapes and
787
00:42:17.199 --> 00:42:17.519
use them.
788
00:42:17.800 --> 00:42:20.920
Are you advocating that as a as a methodology from
789
00:42:21.000 --> 00:42:22.000
night for sleeping.
790
00:42:22.559 --> 00:42:25.039
Well, First of all, I encourage anybody who's a mouth
791
00:42:25.079 --> 00:42:29.480
breathering to go see an airway specialist, either at an ear,
792
00:42:29.519 --> 00:42:33.320
nose and throat doctor or a dentist who's an airway specialist,
793
00:42:33.400 --> 00:42:35.239
because you don't want a mouth tape if you get
794
00:42:35.239 --> 00:42:39.559
an anatomical obstruction, that's right. And because tape in your mouth,
795
00:42:39.599 --> 00:42:41.360
I mean you could literally suffocate. You have to have
796
00:42:41.440 --> 00:42:43.320
an airway for them to be oxygen exchange.
797
00:42:43.400 --> 00:42:43.760
That's right.
798
00:42:44.079 --> 00:42:47.039
Many people have anatomical issues, they have a small mouth,
799
00:42:47.679 --> 00:42:51.039
you know, right, they have an obstructed airways. So first,
800
00:42:51.119 --> 00:42:53.719
before you ever consider taping your mouth, go do the
801
00:42:53.880 --> 00:42:56.199
airway specialists and make sure you don't have an obstructive
802
00:42:56.199 --> 00:42:58.440
ay way. But yeah, if you've got if you've got
803
00:42:58.480 --> 00:43:01.480
an open airway, mouth taping. I do it occasionally if
804
00:43:01.519 --> 00:43:03.679
I'm outside I've got allergies and i feel a little snuffy,
805
00:43:04.639 --> 00:43:06.119
but I've got an open airway, so I can do
806
00:43:06.239 --> 00:43:08.199
mouth taping and you know, you feel the difference of
807
00:43:08.280 --> 00:43:08.920
it the next morning.
808
00:43:09.280 --> 00:43:10.079
Yeah, for sure.
809
00:43:10.199 --> 00:43:12.159
I started doing it a little bit and it does
810
00:43:12.239 --> 00:43:14.159
make a difference, and I think how deep you sleep?
811
00:43:15.599 --> 00:43:15.920
All right?
812
00:43:16.039 --> 00:43:19.519
So now next is the microbio the oral microbiome. So
813
00:43:19.800 --> 00:43:22.639
can you give me a one minute description of how
814
00:43:22.679 --> 00:43:26.360
the nitrocoxide influences the oral microbion.
815
00:43:26.920 --> 00:43:31.079
Well, the oral microbiome is influencing nitrocoxide production. So we
816
00:43:31.239 --> 00:43:34.960
have what's called nitrate reducing bacteria that reduces nitrate to
817
00:43:35.079 --> 00:43:37.639
electron reduction to nitrite. And now we swallow it's aliva
818
00:43:38.079 --> 00:43:41.079
and make nitrocoxide. But without the bacteria, you know, we
819
00:43:41.199 --> 00:43:44.239
lose the cardioprotective benefits of diet, we lose the cardioprotective
820
00:43:44.239 --> 00:43:48.119
benefits of exercise. So when we do things like have
821
00:43:48.239 --> 00:43:50.519
flouride in our toothpaste, which kills all the bacteria in
822
00:43:50.519 --> 00:43:53.360
your mouth. When we use antiseptic mouthwashed, which two out
823
00:43:53.360 --> 00:43:56.639
of three Americans usee mouthwashed everythy killing the bacteria, it
824
00:43:56.960 --> 00:44:00.239
shuts down nitrocoxide production and your blood pressure goes up.
825
00:44:00.719 --> 00:44:02.800
Blood pressure goes up, the number one driver, the number
826
00:44:02.840 --> 00:44:05.440
one killer of men and women worldwide. So and we
827
00:44:05.760 --> 00:44:07.880
and others a publish that if you destroy the microbiome,
828
00:44:07.960 --> 00:44:11.920
it's causal for high blood pressure. So if you're using mouthwashed.
829
00:44:11.960 --> 00:44:15.199
You have to stop, use a fluoride free toothpaste, and
830
00:44:15.320 --> 00:44:18.079
then start doing things that restore and support the microbiome
831
00:44:18.119 --> 00:44:19.559
instead of destroying them.
832
00:44:20.480 --> 00:44:23.239
You know, I'm so shocked when I go to these dentists,
833
00:44:23.280 --> 00:44:27.000
I do you know, I have a biological I mean,
834
00:44:27.079 --> 00:44:32.280
a regular hygiene and they're not. They're more you know,
835
00:44:32.920 --> 00:44:35.119
in tune to allopathic approaches of but ye.
836
00:44:35.920 --> 00:44:38.880
So you know, they open up their cabinet at the
837
00:44:39.000 --> 00:44:41.559
end of a session and they want to give you
838
00:44:42.119 --> 00:44:45.119
a goodie bag, you know, to take home, and it's
839
00:44:45.239 --> 00:44:46.760
flora tice paste.
840
00:44:46.519 --> 00:44:51.639
It's chloro hexacrene or whatever that mouth I mean, it's
841
00:44:51.679 --> 00:44:52.639
all the stuff that's so.
842
00:44:52.719 --> 00:44:53.239
Bad for you.
843
00:44:53.400 --> 00:44:55.960
And then when you do any kind of procedure, they
844
00:44:56.039 --> 00:44:57.880
want you to use an antibiotic.
845
00:44:58.000 --> 00:44:59.760
And that's the first thing they do when you.
846
00:44:59.800 --> 00:45:02.519
Walk is you know, they want It's like it's like candy,
847
00:45:03.239 --> 00:45:05.639
and I always stuff them in my pocket.
848
00:45:05.760 --> 00:45:07.480
You know, they think I'm taking it, but I never do.
849
00:45:08.000 --> 00:45:11.400
But you know, the these are the things to be
850
00:45:11.559 --> 00:45:11.960
aware of.
851
00:45:12.119 --> 00:45:16.440
I mean, traditionally the dentists you're going to go to
852
00:45:16.679 --> 00:45:19.360
most people are not going to biological dentists.
853
00:45:19.400 --> 00:45:22.239
So you're going to be offered. And then we still
854
00:45:22.280 --> 00:45:24.840
have the government dealing with the fluoride in our water
855
00:45:25.599 --> 00:45:28.159
and our and the truth pasted is just a byproduct
856
00:45:28.199 --> 00:45:32.599
of that. So it's a it's a it's a slippery slope.
857
00:45:32.719 --> 00:45:36.960
I mean, you really, you have to navigate your own
858
00:45:37.280 --> 00:45:41.239
journey and make your own decisions. But if anybody that's
859
00:45:41.320 --> 00:45:47.159
watching today is still using mouthwash, alcohol based mouthwash, throw
860
00:45:47.239 --> 00:45:47.480
it in.
861
00:45:47.559 --> 00:45:51.880
The trash, right, get rid of it. And and even
862
00:45:52.360 --> 00:45:53.840
what do you think about oil pulling?
863
00:45:54.039 --> 00:45:54.639
Is that? Is that?
864
00:45:54.800 --> 00:45:55.119
Okay?
865
00:45:55.480 --> 00:45:57.960
The coconuta you know, the short answer is, we don't
866
00:45:58.000 --> 00:46:00.079
know because we've never done the experiment. But you know,
867
00:46:00.119 --> 00:46:01.679
I don't think it's an a septic. I think it's
868
00:46:01.679 --> 00:46:05.880
a it's a good practice that many biological dyonists and yeah, recommend,
869
00:46:05.920 --> 00:46:07.440
but I don't see any downside to it. But we
870
00:46:07.559 --> 00:46:07.880
just don't know.
871
00:46:09.159 --> 00:46:11.679
Okay, So the next one down I'm saying would be,
872
00:46:12.119 --> 00:46:17.039
uh oh, he's telling me hold on, okay, he's.
873
00:46:16.880 --> 00:46:19.760
Telling me we're out of time. Oh dude, Well you
874
00:46:19.840 --> 00:46:22.000
know what, Nathan, We're going to have you back. I'm
875
00:46:22.079 --> 00:46:24.039
so sorry. I wanted to go down through all the
876
00:46:24.480 --> 00:46:25.000
you know, the.
877
00:46:25.719 --> 00:46:30.159
The organs and particularly the gut microbione and the heart
878
00:46:30.280 --> 00:46:33.880
of course, and well and of course the erectile issue.
879
00:46:33.920 --> 00:46:37.440
But we'll make that happen in another session. Are you
880
00:46:37.519 --> 00:46:39.000
okay with doing another.
881
00:46:40.159 --> 00:46:42.679
I love these conversations. These are very important conversations people
882
00:46:42.880 --> 00:46:43.320
I know, and.
883
00:46:43.400 --> 00:46:45.719
You're doing such an important thing for all of us.
884
00:46:45.880 --> 00:46:48.599
Really, I just before we go, I really want to
885
00:46:48.800 --> 00:46:51.400
just tell everybody if you want to order, and I'm
886
00:46:51.440 --> 00:46:54.960
not everybody knows I'm not commercial, but when I take
887
00:46:55.039 --> 00:46:58.239
a product and I know the difference, I want to
888
00:46:58.360 --> 00:47:00.920
share it with other people. And I've been using since
889
00:47:00.960 --> 00:47:02.960
I met you a year and a half, a little
890
00:47:03.000 --> 00:47:06.199
over a year ago, I've been using your N.

So Nathan, thank you so much. And I'm really sorry
905
00:47:41.920 --> 00:47:43.719
I have to cut his short, but I love what
906
00:47:44.400 --> 00:47:44.639
I think.
907
00:47:44.679 --> 00:47:46.920
We covered a lot of ground today and it's very,
908
00:47:47.079 --> 00:47:50.840
very compelling information. So what you're doing is you're on

one individual, I truly appreciate your passion. So thank you again,
912
00:48:06.920 --> 00:48:10.559
and and everybody check out Talk Doctor magazine coming up
913
00:48:10.679 --> 00:48:12.320
in about another week or so.
914
00:48:12.880 --> 00:48:14.119
Okay, take care.
915
00:48:14.639 --> 00:48:14.920
Thank you,
1
00:00:08.759 --> 00:00:09.759
Good morning everyone.
2
00:00:09.839 --> 00:00:13.160
This is Michelle Hughes from Ageless and Timeless. I have
3
00:00:13.199 --> 00:00:15.839
a guest today that I've been talking to for over
4
00:00:15.880 --> 00:00:18.559
a year now, and I have to tell you a
5
00:00:18.559 --> 00:00:23.519
little backstory about doctor Nathan Bryan because he's such a
6
00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:29.000
special man and this will indicate what I'm more validate
7
00:00:29.039 --> 00:00:30.039
what I'm talking about.
8
00:00:30.039 --> 00:00:32.560
So I was at the Radfest festival.
9
00:00:32.159 --> 00:00:37.119
And Anaheim about a year or so ago, and I
10
00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:40.320
walked over to the booth called N one oh one
11
00:00:40.520 --> 00:00:45.159
and Nitric outside. If anyone has heard of the Nightrik Outside,
12
00:00:45.240 --> 00:00:47.799
you know that that's a big hot topic these days.
13
00:00:47.799 --> 00:00:50.880
So I was really interested because of my podcast to
14
00:00:51.079 --> 00:00:52.119
meet doctor Brian.
15
00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:55.840
And anyway, it turned out by just good fortune.
16
00:00:56.039 --> 00:01:00.840
Susan, his partner, was there and then doctor Brian came
17
00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:04.040
by and so we started chatting, and I mean, I
18
00:01:04.159 --> 00:01:08.319
was just so engaged in all that he's done. So
19
00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:14.200
today we're going to hear his backstory on how he
20
00:01:14.239 --> 00:01:16.120
got to where he is today, and we're going to
21
00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:21.359
hear all about deep dive into nitrigauxide. But the story
22
00:01:21.359 --> 00:01:23.040
I was going to tell you is that so I
23
00:01:23.120 --> 00:01:26.359
needed a ride to Los Angeles and I happened to
24
00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:28.840
mention to doctor Brian that I was going up to
25
00:01:29.120 --> 00:01:32.560
LA after the and right away he offered me a
26
00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:35.359
ride with flying back to the air or going back
27
00:01:35.359 --> 00:01:37.319
to the airport to fly back to home.
28
00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:39.599
So I was just so impressive.
29
00:01:39.640 --> 00:01:43.200
Here was a complete stranger and here he was so
30
00:01:43.400 --> 00:01:47.280
generous to offer. That turned out my schedule change and
31
00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:49.480
we didn't do it, And I actually regret that because
32
00:01:49.480 --> 00:01:51.159
I think I would have learned an awful lot in
33
00:01:51.159 --> 00:01:54.560
that one hour, just having him one on one that
34
00:01:54.879 --> 00:01:58.200
outside of a conference. But anyway, it just shows you
35
00:01:58.280 --> 00:02:02.079
the generosity of Brian. And actually I like him so
36
00:02:02.200 --> 00:02:06.560
much that I have him in October, well September, but
37
00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:08.319
it won't come out until October.
38
00:02:08.360 --> 00:02:11.439
First. He'll be the feature column in.
39
00:02:11.599 --> 00:02:15.879
My Top Doctor magazine, so I do a monthly column there.
40
00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:19.360
So if you are listening to this podcast or watching
41
00:02:19.400 --> 00:02:23.240
it today, please check out Topdoctor dot com and you'll
42
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:26.719
see another piece on doctor Brian.
43
00:02:26.960 --> 00:02:29.919
So, good morning, Nathan. How are you well great?
44
00:02:29.960 --> 00:02:31.759
It's great to see you. I'm doing fantastic.
45
00:02:32.240 --> 00:02:36.360
How were you I'm doing great. Are you in Austin today?
46
00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:37.000
I am.
47
00:02:37.039 --> 00:02:38.680
I'm home for the next couple of days. I live
48
00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:41.639
about an hour outside of Austin. But I just flew
49
00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:44.400
in from Miami yesterday and headed to New York next week.
50
00:02:44.919 --> 00:02:47.400
Yeah, you're on an airplane a lot.
51
00:02:47.879 --> 00:02:51.360
So Nathan, you know, Night to Go Outside has become
52
00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:54.560
one of the darlings of the longevity movement, and a
53
00:02:54.560 --> 00:02:58.879
lot of people, however, I'm shocked, haven't really understood or
54
00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:01.960
even know about it. So why don't we start first
55
00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:06.479
with how did you get so engaged in an area
56
00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:12.960
that is still emerging and evolving as a longevity I
57
00:03:12.960 --> 00:03:15.159
don't even want to say a biohap because it really
58
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:19.800
is a scientific breakthrough that people haven't really understood.
59
00:03:19.919 --> 00:03:23.560
So it's kind of like inflammation was for many years.
60
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:26.240
If you remember when they first started talking about inflammation,
61
00:03:26.280 --> 00:03:29.840
everybody compooted in the medical world, and then suddenly it
62
00:03:29.879 --> 00:03:33.520
became this, you know, very important part of the three
63
00:03:33.599 --> 00:03:39.000
leged stool of health. Right, So I think Nikagatxa might
64
00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:41.879
be the fourth leg. So let's start in the beginning.
65
00:03:41.960 --> 00:03:45.879
So what is it that brought you to this awareness
66
00:03:45.919 --> 00:03:48.680
of something that's so important and so young at such
67
00:03:48.719 --> 00:03:49.520
a young age.
68
00:03:49.919 --> 00:03:53.560
Well that takes me back almost thirty years, I know,
69
00:03:54.240 --> 00:03:55.680
and you're not that old.
70
00:03:55.719 --> 00:03:58.400
So Okay, so thirty years.
71
00:03:58.199 --> 00:04:02.599
Means early nineteen Yeah, the late nineties, yeah, late nineties.
72
00:04:02.319 --> 00:04:04.439
Early ties. I'm sorry.
73
00:04:05.080 --> 00:04:07.240
Yeah. So I was a student at LSU School of Medicine.
74
00:04:07.280 --> 00:04:09.560
I was working on a PhD in molecular study of physiology,
75
00:04:09.599 --> 00:04:11.719
and a Nobel Prize had just been awarded for discovery
76
00:04:11.719 --> 00:04:15.000
of nitric oxide. And honestly, you know, I had a
77
00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:17.560
degree in biol chemistry from the University of Texas at Austin,
78
00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:20.720
so I was familiar with nitrogen based chemistry. Is obviously
79
00:04:20.839 --> 00:04:24.519
nitrocoxide part of the gentrification unification cycle, but it was
80
00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:27.439
a new molecule in science or medicine. But obviously it
81
00:04:27.480 --> 00:04:29.839
was important because the Nobel Prize had just been awarded
82
00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:33.319
for the discovery of nitric oxide as a signaling molecule
83
00:04:33.319 --> 00:04:36.600
in the cardiovascer system. And during my PhD work, I
84
00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:39.600
was working under a pharmacologist who became my mentor, Martin Feelish,
85
00:04:39.839 --> 00:04:42.439
who had worked in the nitrocoxide field for you know,
86
00:04:42.480 --> 00:04:44.920
since the early eighties and when it was just first
87
00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:48.600
starting to be discovered, and so had I had a
88
00:04:48.680 --> 00:04:50.560
chance to meet lou Ignaro, who had just won the
89
00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:53.040
Nobel Prize, and you know piqued my interest. It was
90
00:04:53.079 --> 00:04:56.319
an exciting time. And you know, nitrocoxide's this gas that's
91
00:04:56.399 --> 00:04:58.319
one it's produced, it's gone in less than a second.
92
00:04:58.439 --> 00:05:01.079
So we didn't have a lot of analytical tools to
93
00:05:01.199 --> 00:05:06.360
measure nitrocoxide production in animals in humans. So part of
94
00:05:06.399 --> 00:05:08.920
my PhD was developing these analytical methods where it could
95
00:05:08.920 --> 00:05:12.920
detect nitrocoxide and when nitrocoxide is produced, where does it
96
00:05:12.959 --> 00:05:14.720
go and what does it become? And how does it signal?
97
00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:17.040
Because once it's produced, it's gone in less than a second,
98
00:05:17.920 --> 00:05:19.920
So you know, we started trying to figure this out
99
00:05:19.959 --> 00:05:24.360
through these nitrocoxide analytical methods that we developed, and we
100
00:05:24.439 --> 00:05:29.199
understood the metabolism of nitrocoxide, how it's produced, when it's produced,
101
00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:30.680
where does it go, what is it becoming, how does
102
00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:33.759
it signal? And then how do we detect nitrocoxide deficiencies
103
00:05:34.199 --> 00:05:37.199
in many different diseases from diabetes to hard disease to
104
00:05:37.319 --> 00:05:41.839
transplantation surgery. So then we were armed. Our group was
105
00:05:41.959 --> 00:05:43.800
armed with really a lot of tools that no one
106
00:05:43.800 --> 00:05:45.839
else in the world had. I finished my PhD in
107
00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:48.879
less than two years. I think I published two or
108
00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:51.240
three first author papers during that time, and then went
109
00:05:51.279 --> 00:05:55.040
to Boston Medical Center and was training in the cardiovascu
110
00:05:55.040 --> 00:05:59.040
as a a postdoctoral fellow. And then Fredmiradded, the other
111
00:05:59.079 --> 00:06:01.399
guy who won the Nobel Rise, recruited me to join
112
00:06:01.439 --> 00:06:04.040
faculty of ut Medical School in Houston. And I believe
113
00:06:04.079 --> 00:06:05.920
it was two thousand and five, so twenty years ago
114
00:06:05.920 --> 00:06:08.839
where I started my own independent research career and you know,
115
00:06:09.079 --> 00:06:13.639
again continued our journey of discovery and innovations and you know,
116
00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:17.160
started filing patents, patents became issued, and then started making
117
00:06:17.160 --> 00:06:19.480
products and starting companies and well, you.
118
00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:27.560
Know later, you know, I did watch Blue on.
119
00:06:26.279 --> 00:06:28.480
On a tiv on an internet show.
120
00:06:28.959 --> 00:06:31.040
I don't know if there's a podcast, But anyway, is
121
00:06:31.079 --> 00:06:32.680
he still with you today?
122
00:06:32.759 --> 00:06:34.879
I mean, do you collaborate with him?
123
00:06:35.480 --> 00:06:35.560
Now?
124
00:06:35.639 --> 00:06:38.040
Low is a close friend and colleague, and he's you know,
125
00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:42.839
the only remaining surviving member of the Nobel Nobel Aureates.
126
00:06:42.920 --> 00:06:45.800
But yeah, no, Look, I'm hosting the Nitric Oxide Society
127
00:06:45.839 --> 00:06:49.360
meeting in Austin in April of next year and lose
128
00:06:49.399 --> 00:06:52.399
our keynote, lose part of the organizing committee. So you know,
129
00:06:52.439 --> 00:06:55.959
he's still active. You know, he's still very active in
130
00:06:55.959 --> 00:07:00.519
the nitric oxide community. He's such a wonderful, caring, humble
131
00:07:00.600 --> 00:07:03.439
man and really supportive his new investigators and just he
132
00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:04.160
has been achieving.
133
00:07:05.079 --> 00:07:06.879
I was just about to say to you he was
134
00:07:06.959 --> 00:07:09.639
so humble that he didn't even when he was asked
135
00:07:09.639 --> 00:07:12.560
about his background, he didn't even mention the Nobel Prize,
136
00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:16.879
and the interviewer had to say, well, you're you're omitting
137
00:07:16.920 --> 00:07:20.920
one very very important piece of information. So yeah, he
138
00:07:21.120 --> 00:07:22.879
had to pull it out of him. I mean, that's
139
00:07:22.920 --> 00:07:26.959
that just shows you his humility. So what has happened
140
00:07:26.959 --> 00:07:31.040
from then to now in terms of your the scientific
141
00:07:31.079 --> 00:07:33.959
awareness of the importance of nitrogoxide.
142
00:07:34.360 --> 00:07:37.800
That's you know, it's thirty years. So what what has transpired?
143
00:07:38.519 --> 00:07:41.600
Well, today we understand how the human body makes nitrocoxide,
144
00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:45.240
we understand what leads to a loss of its production,
145
00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:48.399
We understand the symptoms that develop as a loss of
146
00:07:48.439 --> 00:07:50.680
nitrocoux as a result of the loss of microcoxid production,
147
00:07:51.319 --> 00:07:53.800
and most importantly, we know how to overcome and fix
148
00:07:53.839 --> 00:07:58.759
and repair and recapitulate nitrocoxide production and signaling. So, you know,
149
00:07:58.800 --> 00:08:01.959
I like to say, those guys has discovered that nitrocoxide
150
00:08:02.000 --> 00:08:04.759
is a signaling molecule in the cardiovascar system. But it
151
00:08:04.879 --> 00:08:06.639
was really the work of me and my research group.
152
00:08:06.639 --> 00:08:09.680
We discovered how to deliver nitrocoxide gas. So we make
153
00:08:09.720 --> 00:08:12.439
a solid dose form of nitrocoxide gas. We can deliver
154
00:08:12.519 --> 00:08:15.879
this in an outpatient setting. We do this through consumer
155
00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:19.920
products and supplements and nutritionals and skincare products. We're developing
156
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:22.800
drug therapy, which was my original kind of goal when
157
00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:25.800
I started in academia and medicine was to understand the
158
00:08:25.839 --> 00:08:28.600
mechanism disease to the extent that you could start to
159
00:08:28.600 --> 00:08:31.319
develop rational therapies. And that's what we're doing. We've got
160
00:08:31.399 --> 00:08:34.559
drugs in development for heart disease, got drugs in development
161
00:08:34.559 --> 00:08:37.759
for Alzheimer's and dementia. Make a topical drug for diabetic
162
00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:40.720
ulcers and non healing wounds. And that's just the start,
163
00:08:40.840 --> 00:08:43.519
you know, because now what we know, it's not what
164
00:08:43.559 --> 00:08:46.080
we think. It's what we know that there's not a
165
00:08:46.120 --> 00:08:49.440
single condition or disease indication where nitrocoxide at the right
166
00:08:49.480 --> 00:08:51.320
dose at the right time and the right patient would
167
00:08:51.320 --> 00:08:56.799
not be beneficial. And so the future of medicine, health wellness,
168
00:08:57.159 --> 00:09:02.000
human optimization is absolutely dependent upon adequate production of mitrocoxae,
169
00:09:02.039 --> 00:09:03.840
and we know how to do it better than anybody
170
00:09:03.840 --> 00:09:06.279
in the world. And that's what we're doing. When you
171
00:09:06.360 --> 00:09:10.320
say we, what do you mean we mean collectively? You know,
172
00:09:10.360 --> 00:09:13.320
I never say I know many of the patents. I'm
173
00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:15.399
on the sole in vendor on these patents, but you know,
174
00:09:15.440 --> 00:09:16.799
it's a team I had, you know, when I was
175
00:09:17.240 --> 00:09:21.000
in academia, had you know, research fellows, I had postdocs,
176
00:09:21.039 --> 00:09:24.440
I had faculty and staff that work with me in collaboration.
177
00:09:25.159 --> 00:09:28.840
So I never take credit for this solely. And then
178
00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:30.600
when I say we, now, you know, I have several
179
00:09:30.600 --> 00:09:35.360
companies and executives within the companies, there's collaborators, there's you know,
180
00:09:35.399 --> 00:09:38.519
clinical trial sites that run our clinical trials. So I
181
00:09:38.559 --> 00:09:41.919
never say I because it's just not part of my fabric.
182
00:09:42.480 --> 00:09:47.559
That's also showing your humility. Well, so, Nathan, why is
183
00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:51.960
it that it took so long for this to become
184
00:09:52.120 --> 00:09:55.000
something that people are now much more aware of? What
185
00:09:55.360 --> 00:09:57.360
do you think has been the reason that has been
186
00:09:57.960 --> 00:10:00.720
slowed down even with a Nobel prize back in the
187
00:10:00.840 --> 00:10:01.639
late nineties.
188
00:10:02.320 --> 00:10:05.519
Well, I think there's several reason. Number One, on average,
189
00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:08.279
it takes about seventeen years for new discoveries to become
190
00:10:08.480 --> 00:10:12.679
so called standard of care or mainstream correct. Nitrocoxide is
191
00:10:12.720 --> 00:10:15.240
only about a fifty year old. Molecule was first described
192
00:10:15.240 --> 00:10:19.320
in nineteen seventy seven fred Mirad's paper showing that organic
193
00:10:19.440 --> 00:10:22.919
nitrates like nitroc listenm and metabolized into nitrocoxide and then
194
00:10:22.919 --> 00:10:26.639
that leads to vasodilation. That's how these drugs work for angeline.
195
00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:29.559
And then in nineteen eighty it was discovered by Bob
196
00:10:29.600 --> 00:10:32.639
Firtscott that the cells along our bud vessels produce this
197
00:10:32.759 --> 00:10:36.879
nitrocoxide molecule. So that was the initial lag. It just
198
00:10:36.919 --> 00:10:39.840
takes time. It has to stand the test of time
199
00:10:39.879 --> 00:10:43.000
and for these experiments to be reproducible by other groups.
200
00:10:43.759 --> 00:10:46.240
And then the other big I think lag and acceptance
201
00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:49.639
is there's been no major developments or innovations in nitrocoxide
202
00:10:49.720 --> 00:10:52.200
drug therapy. When I started in the field in the
203
00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:55.960
late nineties, every big pharmaceutical company and biotech company had
204
00:10:55.960 --> 00:11:00.960
a nitrocoxide pipeline of drugs. The reason they failed was
205
00:11:00.960 --> 00:11:02.759
they were using the wrong target, they were using the
206
00:11:02.759 --> 00:11:07.399
wrong strategy, and they were putting nitrocoxide linker molecules or
207
00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:10.799
nitrocoxide active drugs on parent molecules like COX two inhibitors
208
00:11:10.879 --> 00:11:14.120
or aspirin or insets, and you know you have to
209
00:11:14.360 --> 00:11:17.080
you have to cleave that nitroester bond, and there's consequences
210
00:11:17.120 --> 00:11:20.799
to that. So these weren't These drugs weren't safe. And
211
00:11:20.840 --> 00:11:23.679
then you know, in the nineteen eighties, late eighties, early nineties,
212
00:11:23.679 --> 00:11:27.840
it was starting to develop nitrocoxide therapy for innoltive therapy
213
00:11:27.879 --> 00:11:31.159
for premature babies born with pullman or hypertension. So now
214
00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:33.440
clinically that's been used for more than you know, thirty
215
00:11:33.519 --> 00:11:35.799
or forty years and save millions of babies' lives that
216
00:11:35.840 --> 00:11:39.120
are born premature. But then that's where the clinical innovation
217
00:11:39.320 --> 00:11:43.159
really stopped. Because nitrocoxide is a gas. How do we
218
00:11:43.200 --> 00:11:45.720
create a solid dose form of nitrocoxide that we can
219
00:11:45.799 --> 00:11:49.120
deliver in an outpatient setting. That's really the riddle that
220
00:11:49.159 --> 00:11:51.039
I saw, because my patents are on the method of
221
00:11:51.480 --> 00:11:55.039
making a solid dose form of nitrocoxide gas. So we
222
00:11:55.080 --> 00:11:58.360
make we deliver nitricoxide either topically through our orals or
223
00:11:58.360 --> 00:12:01.600
through an organ disintegrating tablet or other technology. And the
224
00:12:01.639 --> 00:12:03.679
whole basis of what I do is if your body
225
00:12:03.679 --> 00:12:07.759
can't make nitrocoxide, then we got to give it for you. Right,
226
00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:10.519
it's a hormone. It's like estrogen and testosterone. So if
227
00:12:10.639 --> 00:12:14.360
men or women can't make testosterone or estrogen perspectively, we
228
00:12:14.480 --> 00:12:18.039
give them testosterone. We give them the actual molecule. And
229
00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:21.200
so what we do is we give nitrocoxide gas. Where
230
00:12:21.240 --> 00:12:23.919
all of the companies out there can't do this, they
231
00:12:23.960 --> 00:12:26.320
don't do it and so their products don't work.
232
00:12:26.840 --> 00:12:29.840

not deficient in a dead beat powder. So taking these

00:13:24.159 --> 00:13:27.279
People I know take L rgenine and they forget to
250
00:13:27.320 --> 00:13:31.039
take the L siculine with it. But even what you're
251
00:13:31.080 --> 00:13:33.799
just saying is if you're taking both of those, you know,
252
00:13:33.840 --> 00:13:36.840
doing it the combo, it's still not going to produce
253
00:13:36.879 --> 00:13:38.960
the nitrogoxide.
254
00:13:38.039 --> 00:13:39.480
That you can be used.
255
00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:43.159
Well, that's because they don't understand the biochemistry, and that's
256
00:13:43.159 --> 00:13:46.759
why companies are really doing their customers of disservice and
257
00:13:46.799 --> 00:13:49.960
they're killing an industry. They're killing the nitrocoxide field because
258
00:13:50.320 --> 00:13:53.120
don't work and then the consumer or the patient goes
259
00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:56.240
Nitrocoxide must not be that important because these products didn't
260
00:13:56.240 --> 00:13:59.639
help me. But look, the enzyme that converts argentines to
261
00:13:59.720 --> 00:14:04.279
nitrol coxide is broken. And furthermore, el citylene is a
262
00:14:04.279 --> 00:14:08.080
byproduct of nitrocoxide production. It is not a precursor. Right,
263
00:14:08.159 --> 00:14:10.080
So for me, it's it's an easy litmus test. If
264
00:14:10.080 --> 00:14:12.840
you're looking for products in your supplement store and that
265
00:14:12.879 --> 00:14:15.440
product has il argentine or el CityLine in it. Then
266
00:14:15.559 --> 00:14:18.240
just dismiss it because these the people who are selling
267
00:14:18.279 --> 00:14:21.879
you that product do not understand the basic biochemistry the
268
00:14:21.919 --> 00:14:25.519
enzymology of how nitrocoxide is produced. So that's an easy
269
00:14:25.519 --> 00:14:28.399
litmus test. So save your money, put the product back
270
00:14:28.440 --> 00:14:28.960
on the shelf.
271
00:14:29.320 --> 00:14:32.240
And then what sorry the interpret what about it if
272
00:14:32.240 --> 00:14:36.279
you added glute tocione, if you get a transderal glute
273
00:14:36.320 --> 00:14:38.720
to scion, because I know glue tocion is very difficult
274
00:14:39.159 --> 00:14:43.519
to absorb otherwise, uh maybe through ivs, but it's only
275
00:14:43.519 --> 00:14:46.080
a short lived. So let's just say you're doing a
276
00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:49.000
you know, an absorbable glutathion, which is a very rare
277
00:14:49.039 --> 00:14:52.000
thing to find. Does that help the old argentine and
278
00:14:52.159 --> 00:14:57.600
L siculine and with glutathione added to produce more of
279
00:14:57.639 --> 00:14:59.440
a nitrogoxide result?
280
00:15:00.200 --> 00:15:03.840
Not necessarily? Now, not necessarily because here's the problem. The
281
00:15:03.919 --> 00:15:07.120
nitrocoxide synthase enzyme is what we call a homeo dimer,
282
00:15:07.159 --> 00:15:10.240
So it's two twins that come together. Okay, these these
283
00:15:10.279 --> 00:15:13.200
these enzymes have to undergo a conformational change to transfer
284
00:15:13.240 --> 00:15:16.519
the electrons from rgenine to make nitrocoxide, and then it spits
285
00:15:16.559 --> 00:15:20.039
out citrilline as a byproduct greate limiting step in the
286
00:15:20.120 --> 00:15:25.639
uncoupling of that enzyme oxidation of tetrahydroboptria. So more glue
287
00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:30.440
de thione, more antioxidant antioxidant capacity, But just by increasing
288
00:15:30.480 --> 00:15:34.440
glue to thion doesn't prevent oxidation of tetrahydroboptrin. There's a
289
00:15:34.480 --> 00:15:39.080
different redox potential for glue de thione than a scorbic acid,
290
00:15:39.120 --> 00:15:44.120
than alphalopoic acid, than tetrahydroboptrin, to all other antioxidants, whether
291
00:15:44.799 --> 00:15:50.440
fat soluble, water soluble, enzymatic antioxidants, there's a redox potential
292
00:15:50.480 --> 00:15:53.919
that's required to prevent the extraction of electron from all
293
00:15:53.960 --> 00:15:58.039
those molecules. So the simple answer is maybe, but not
294
00:15:58.080 --> 00:15:59.600
necessarily right.
295
00:15:59.720 --> 00:16:03.240
So basically what you're saying, Nathan, is if you have
296
00:16:03.480 --> 00:16:06.120
an l arginine and even if you've added the l
297
00:16:06.200 --> 00:16:08.840
ciculine and you're doing that combo, forget about it.
298
00:16:08.840 --> 00:16:11.159
It's not going to do. It's not going to do
299
00:16:11.240 --> 00:16:13.240
what they're the manufacturers are.
300
00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:19.000
Look look, because there's very defined biochemistry. Right, there's what
301
00:16:19.039 --> 00:16:21.320
we call the Michalis constant. And this may get too
302
00:16:21.360 --> 00:16:23.519
technical for young but I think it's very important concept.
303
00:16:23.720 --> 00:16:28.080
There's a certain concentration of a molecule that's required to
304
00:16:28.480 --> 00:16:31.440
theoretically saturate fifty percent of the binding sites to activate
305
00:16:31.480 --> 00:16:36.399
that somatic reaction. The Machaus concept rail argentine is five micromolar.
306
00:16:36.799 --> 00:16:39.240
Even the sickest of sickest people, we've got one hundred
307
00:16:39.279 --> 00:16:41.480
to two hundred micromolar. What does that mean? We have
308
00:16:41.600 --> 00:16:45.559
twenty to forty times excess l argen. Then what's needed
309
00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:48.679
to bind to the enzyme to make nitrocoxet. We're never
310
00:16:48.759 --> 00:16:51.879
deficient in largen. It's a semi essential amino acid. We
311
00:16:51.919 --> 00:16:53.799
get it from the breakdown of protein, whether it's animal
312
00:16:53.919 --> 00:16:56.519
or plant protein, and we make it through the U recycle.
313
00:16:56.559 --> 00:16:59.240
The partially recycle is present in every cell in the
314
00:16:59.320 --> 00:17:02.799
human body, and we're easily making margining. We're constantly making situation.
315
00:17:03.200 --> 00:17:06.480
We're never deficient in these inzie and these amino acids,
316
00:17:06.640 --> 00:17:10.440
So it makes no sense to supplement. Why supplement something
317
00:17:10.440 --> 00:17:11.759
that you're not deficient.
318
00:17:11.640 --> 00:17:12.359
That you already have.
319
00:17:14.720 --> 00:17:18.599
So Nathan, go back for a moment and just give
320
00:17:18.720 --> 00:17:24.200
everybody a very good, short and easy to understand definition
321
00:17:25.799 --> 00:17:30.200
beyond it being a molecular gas. But take us a
322
00:17:30.279 --> 00:17:33.119
little bit deeper to what is nitricoxide.
323
00:17:33.680 --> 00:17:36.680
Well, it's a signaling molecular It's first discovered to be
324
00:17:36.720 --> 00:17:39.119
a vasodilator. So when it's produced in the lining and
325
00:17:39.119 --> 00:17:41.319
the blood vessel, that relaxes the smooth muscle around the
326
00:17:41.319 --> 00:17:44.960
blood vessels and it leads to vasodilation. So now we
327
00:17:44.960 --> 00:17:48.519
were getting increased oxygen nutrient delivery to downstream blood vessels.
328
00:17:50.200 --> 00:17:52.759
It's the signal that tells our own stem cells to mobilize.
329
00:17:52.799 --> 00:17:55.160
So if you have adequate nitrocoxide, you have more stem
330
00:17:55.160 --> 00:17:59.400
cells in circulation on you know, autologous our own stem cells.
331
00:18:00.440 --> 00:18:03.759
It activates an enzyme in our nucleus called telomerase, which
332
00:18:03.799 --> 00:18:07.680
prevents our telomeres from shortening, so shorter telomere, shorter life span,
333
00:18:07.799 --> 00:18:11.039
longer telomere's line, longer life span. And then the other
334
00:18:11.079 --> 00:18:14.880
important thing about longevity is it induces mitochondria biogenesis and
335
00:18:14.920 --> 00:18:18.240
it improves the efficiency of oxygen utilization to make sailor
336
00:18:18.359 --> 00:18:21.400
energy or ATP. So if you think about that, if
337
00:18:21.400 --> 00:18:24.319
you don't if you can't make nitroc oxide, you lose
338
00:18:24.359 --> 00:18:27.599
the regulation of blood flowing, develop eed high blood pressure.
339
00:18:27.920 --> 00:18:32.359
Insulin resistance, you have mitochondrial dysfunction, you have shorter telomeres,
340
00:18:32.599 --> 00:18:35.119
and you don't repair and replace dysfunctional cells because you
341
00:18:35.119 --> 00:18:38.039
don't have any stem cells in circulation. Do you want to?
342
00:18:38.160 --> 00:18:40.079
You want to? You want to lead to human optimization
343
00:18:40.160 --> 00:18:43.799
and biohacking and longer, healthier life free of disease. I
344
00:18:43.839 --> 00:18:46.559
mean you have to start at nitrocoxide. That is the foundation.
345
00:18:47.119 --> 00:18:49.039
There are other things you have to address, but without
346
00:18:49.079 --> 00:18:52.839
added oxide production, nothing else is going to optimize you.
347
00:18:53.279 --> 00:18:54.559
And this is so compelling.
348
00:18:54.640 --> 00:18:56.920
And then that means that you know, adding all the
349
00:18:56.960 --> 00:19:00.720
other you know, the five legged stool of you know
350
00:19:00.880 --> 00:19:04.799
of a diet and I mean nutrition and sleep and
351
00:19:04.839 --> 00:19:08.279
stress and all the things that go into a go
352
00:19:08.359 --> 00:19:12.680
into a healthy lifestyle that you actually without nitrogoxide, all
353
00:19:12.720 --> 00:19:17.079
of those things are not going to be nearly as effective. Right.
354
00:19:17.119 --> 00:19:20.119
You need the nitrogoxa kind of like the foundation, like
355
00:19:20.200 --> 00:19:21.000
building a house.
356
00:19:21.079 --> 00:19:22.079
That's your foundation.
357
00:19:23.079 --> 00:19:26.279
And yes, nitrocoxide is not going to replace sleep, It's
358
00:19:26.319 --> 00:19:28.599
not going to replace you know, a good diet. I
359
00:19:28.680 --> 00:19:31.480
mean it's a two way street. If you have addiput
360
00:19:31.519 --> 00:19:34.640
nitrocoxide production, you have good rest. You can improve microoxide
361
00:19:35.000 --> 00:19:38.000
production improves them sol mobilization. So you're gonna rest and repair,
362
00:19:38.480 --> 00:19:42.519
right if you need it. More diet, You're gonna high sugar,
363
00:19:42.559 --> 00:19:45.200
carbohydrates and you know all that. It's it's going to
364
00:19:45.240 --> 00:19:48.480
continue to deplete, deplete your body availability to make nitrocoxide.
365
00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:52.279
Taking oxide products isn't going to help you. I mean
366
00:19:52.319 --> 00:19:54.680
it will help you, but it's not gonna You still
367
00:19:54.720 --> 00:19:57.000
have to change your diet and do the things that
368
00:19:57.160 --> 00:19:59.960
you know lead to better natural production nitrocoxide.
369
00:20:00.119 --> 00:20:02.559
Right, So this is a collaboration, but it is something
370
00:20:02.599 --> 00:20:04.359
that is important to look at.
371
00:20:04.440 --> 00:20:06.000
So how do you get a baseline?
372
00:20:06.160 --> 00:20:08.680
How do you know what your nitrogoxide level is if
373
00:20:08.680 --> 00:20:11.759
you're starting out on a nitric oxide journey.
374
00:20:13.359 --> 00:20:16.440
Well, you know, unfortunately there's no biomarkers like blood labs
375
00:20:16.440 --> 00:20:18.119
and we can draw and give you a number of
376
00:20:18.119 --> 00:20:21.759
your nitrocoxide because again, once it's produced, it's metabolized in
377
00:20:21.759 --> 00:20:24.279
different metabolites. We've done this for you know, twenty five
378
00:20:24.359 --> 00:20:26.880
thirty years in the research lab, but unfortunately it's not
379
00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:29.920
done clinically. So what we do is we rely on symptoms.
380
00:20:30.839 --> 00:20:33.880
So the first sign and symptom to develop if your
381
00:20:33.880 --> 00:20:37.519
body becomes compromising stabilities to use. Nyitrocoxide is a rectile dysfunction.
382
00:20:37.960 --> 00:20:40.279
And this is just in mail. It's a female and
383
00:20:40.319 --> 00:20:42.880
if you think about it, to get an erection, either
384
00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:45.519
a penile or clinical label erection, we have to increase
385
00:20:46.440 --> 00:20:49.720
blood flood flood, not ngorgement, So you have to dilate
386
00:20:49.720 --> 00:20:52.480
the blood vessels. Nitrocoxide dilates the blood vessels. If you
387
00:20:52.480 --> 00:20:56.039
can't make nitrocoxide, we don't get vasodilation, we don't get engorgement.
388
00:20:56.400 --> 00:20:59.160
And that is a rectile dysfunction. It's called the canary
389
00:20:59.160 --> 00:21:01.160
and the coal mine, but because it it is the
390
00:21:01.240 --> 00:21:03.599
canary in the coal mine, because if you have in
391
00:21:03.680 --> 00:21:06.319
the field of dysfunction in the vascular bed of your
392
00:21:06.319 --> 00:21:09.559
sex organs, that same dysfunctions occurring in your heart, in
393
00:21:09.559 --> 00:21:11.720
your brain, in your lungs, in your liver. It's a
394
00:21:11.759 --> 00:21:15.880
systemic disease that manifests first when we're trying to dilate
395
00:21:15.920 --> 00:21:18.559
the blood vessels on demand. And then number two, your
396
00:21:18.559 --> 00:21:22.359
blood pressure starts to go up because without adequate nitrocoxide,
397
00:21:22.359 --> 00:21:24.200
now we've got the same volume of blood going through
398
00:21:24.200 --> 00:21:27.880
smaller blood vessels and pressure does out. Number three you
399
00:21:27.880 --> 00:21:31.440
start to get insulin resistance in metabolic disease. Nine out
400
00:21:31.480 --> 00:21:35.039
of ten Americans are metabolically unhealthy. Number four, you can't
401
00:21:35.160 --> 00:21:37.440
maintain an exercise regimen because if you can't dilate the
402
00:21:37.480 --> 00:21:39.759
blood vessels to the heart or the skelele to muscle
403
00:21:40.119 --> 00:21:43.759
when you're exercising, you tire, You get lactic acid build up,
404
00:21:44.119 --> 00:21:46.759
and you can no longer maintain that exercise regional. And
405
00:21:46.799 --> 00:21:49.279
then number five, you start to get brain foged, mold,
406
00:21:49.400 --> 00:21:53.319
cognitive impairment, dementia, and eventually Alzheimer's. So those are the
407
00:21:53.359 --> 00:21:56.480
things that you should pay attention on. And you know,
408
00:21:56.680 --> 00:22:00.240
the analogy I use is that you're, you know, our smartphone.
409
00:22:00.559 --> 00:22:02.319
When we look at our smartphone and we see the
410
00:22:02.319 --> 00:22:04.680
red light come on here that our batteries low, people
411
00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:06.119
pay and they go, oh shit, I got to charge
412
00:22:06.119 --> 00:22:09.920
my battery. Ed is your red light coming on? Senior batteries?
413
00:22:10.599 --> 00:22:15.799
High blood pressure, insular resistance, exercise intolerance, cognitive brain full
414
00:22:16.200 --> 00:22:19.640
that's your body telling you, hey, I need some nitrococide.
415
00:22:19.640 --> 00:22:22.039
I'm getting low, and so pay attention. Your body's always
416
00:22:22.039 --> 00:22:23.960
talking to you. He's going to pay attention.
417
00:22:25.000 --> 00:22:28.480
But yet, Nathan, if you're going to a even a
418
00:22:28.480 --> 00:22:33.200
functional medicine doctor, how often if they have these symptoms,
419
00:22:33.200 --> 00:22:35.759
are they going to tell someone to go get nitrogoxide?
420
00:22:36.480 --> 00:22:39.039
You know, talk to me doctor Brian and go to
421
00:22:39.160 --> 00:22:42.400
N one oh one your company and you know, start
422
00:22:42.559 --> 00:22:45.640
using the product. So you know in your experience, are
423
00:22:45.680 --> 00:22:49.440
people that are in your world, in your wheelhouse are
424
00:22:49.440 --> 00:22:53.599
they are they advocating that as a solution for those
425
00:22:53.680 --> 00:22:54.640
kinds of symptoms.
426
00:22:55.680 --> 00:22:58.119
You know, we're making some progress, but here's the problem.
427
00:22:58.960 --> 00:23:01.839
I mean, as this market is expanding and the awareness
428
00:23:01.880 --> 00:23:06.319
around nitrocoxide is growing, more companies are coming in trying
429
00:23:06.359 --> 00:23:10.279
to sell a nitrocoxide product. Yes, doctors will recommend it
430
00:23:10.319 --> 00:23:12.240
because they've got sales people in there. They hear a
431
00:23:12.240 --> 00:23:14.119
webinar or here's something they go, well, let me try
432
00:23:14.119 --> 00:23:16.880
this nitrocoxide pid or I saw a commercial on TV.
433
00:23:17.559 --> 00:23:19.880
And then they say, well to take this be product
434
00:23:19.880 --> 00:23:22.400
and then come back. Whether patient comes back and they go, well,
435
00:23:22.400 --> 00:23:25.440
this didn't help me, and then we lose. We lose
436
00:23:25.480 --> 00:23:29.480
the conversation. And it's not nitrocoxide didn't work for that patient.
437
00:23:29.480 --> 00:23:31.960
It's because that product cannot, did not and will not
438
00:23:32.079 --> 00:23:36.200
ever produce nitrocoxide in that patient because that product doesn't
439
00:23:36.200 --> 00:23:39.519
address the root cause of their deficiency, because they're either ignorant,
440
00:23:39.759 --> 00:23:41.920
and ignorance is fine, it's just a lack of knowledge,
441
00:23:42.279 --> 00:23:46.000
or they're deceptive and fraudulent, which any companies out there
442
00:23:46.240 --> 00:23:50.480
who are intentionally defrauding their customers because it's a it's
443
00:23:50.519 --> 00:23:52.759
a cheaper product that they can sell for higher profits
444
00:23:53.000 --> 00:23:56.039
and it cannot and will not produce nitrocoxide. And I
445
00:23:56.079 --> 00:23:59.559
think that's why these conversations are so important, because all products,
446
00:23:59.599 --> 00:24:02.400
not just notox have can be based on science and
447
00:24:02.480 --> 00:24:04.640
it has to be personalized. And that's why I like
448
00:24:04.680 --> 00:24:07.640
the functional integrative docs because they have time to spend
449
00:24:07.640 --> 00:24:11.160
with their patients to get an insight into their lifestyle,
450
00:24:11.319 --> 00:24:13.960
their diet, what are their deficiencies, what are their talks
451
00:24:13.960 --> 00:24:18.680
and exposures, and then develop personalized therapies for them. Well,
452
00:24:18.680 --> 00:24:20.960
if you go to standard allopathic doc, you get five
453
00:24:20.960 --> 00:24:23.519
minutes with you and which is oh, you got ed.
454
00:24:23.680 --> 00:24:24.839
Here's a sildenti fil.
455
00:24:24.799 --> 00:24:30.240
Or vitrop look at, give me some viagra, an.
456
00:24:30.079 --> 00:24:33.400
Acid hypn or arb for your hypertension. Here's some met
457
00:24:33.480 --> 00:24:37.160
foreman for your diabetes. And here's the ambient because you
458
00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:38.759
can't sleep, and then you wake up and you're on
459
00:24:38.839 --> 00:24:41.920
a dozen different medications, and people wonder where they're sick. Right.
460
00:24:42.559 --> 00:24:44.960
So you mentioned though that you're developing drugs.
461
00:24:45.000 --> 00:24:48.359
Now, so how did you cross that bridge to get
462
00:24:48.440 --> 00:24:52.680
to the allopathic community and get them to agree to
463
00:24:52.799 --> 00:24:57.839
work with you on on nitrogogxide in other words, including
464
00:24:57.920 --> 00:25:03.480
nitrogoxat in in an pharmaceutical side of the medical world.
465
00:25:03.720 --> 00:25:05.640
Well, I can tell you it was never my intent
466
00:25:05.799 --> 00:25:09.079
going into academia to be a developer of dietary supplements.
467
00:25:09.119 --> 00:25:12.559
That was never even online radar, right. But because we
468
00:25:12.599 --> 00:25:15.720
had developed a way to produce nitrocoxide, and because I
469
00:25:15.799 --> 00:25:18.599
knew how to do this through natural products and through
470
00:25:18.640 --> 00:25:22.000
food and through modification of the microbiome and affecting the
471
00:25:22.319 --> 00:25:24.839
structure and function of the enzyme, we could do this
472
00:25:24.880 --> 00:25:28.000
through natural products and through dietary supplements. But the goal
473
00:25:28.079 --> 00:25:31.319
all along was to develop drug therapy how to deliver
474
00:25:31.400 --> 00:25:35.839
nitro patient setting. So we're not convincing the allopathic community
475
00:25:35.880 --> 00:25:38.200
to work with us because they can't because we don't
476
00:25:38.240 --> 00:25:40.599
have an FDA drug approved on the market. So what
477
00:25:40.640 --> 00:25:43.400
we do is we go to the FDA we have
478
00:25:43.480 --> 00:25:45.640
meetings with the FDA. So look, here's what we want
479
00:25:45.680 --> 00:25:47.359
to do. We want to go after schemic car disease.
480
00:25:47.680 --> 00:25:51.079
Here's our nitric oxide releasing drug that when we take this,
481
00:25:51.200 --> 00:25:54.599
we dilate the blood vessels, we relieve the schemic pain
482
00:25:54.640 --> 00:25:57.119
known as ANGEL and we can prolong exercise induced agen
483
00:25:57.519 --> 00:25:59.759
And by the way, it works better than isosorb by
484
00:25:59.759 --> 00:26:03.160
diet nitrade or nitroglycery, and it's safer, so we can
485
00:26:03.200 --> 00:26:05.640
miss the FDA. We're gonna design a clinical trial. We're
486
00:26:05.640 --> 00:26:07.920
gonna test this in a double blind fall seabook controlled study,
487
00:26:08.480 --> 00:26:11.319
and if we hit our endpoints, the FDA agreed that
488
00:26:11.440 --> 00:26:13.400
they'll approved this drug, and then we've got a new
489
00:26:13.440 --> 00:26:16.279
drug indication for a scheme of card disease. We did
490
00:26:16.279 --> 00:26:19.279
the same thing with Alzheimer's. You go all the FDA go. Look,
491
00:26:19.519 --> 00:26:22.319
Alzheimer's is a metabolic master of disease. We're developing a
492
00:26:22.359 --> 00:26:26.200
nitrocoxet releasing drug that improves glucose ub take that improve
493
00:26:26.279 --> 00:26:29.759
the profusion of the brain, overcomes focal a schemia, we
494
00:26:29.759 --> 00:26:32.519
don't get misfolding of proteins, and it addresses the root
495
00:26:32.559 --> 00:26:35.599
cause of dementia. Alzheimer's. So we're gonna design a clinical trial.
496
00:26:35.680 --> 00:26:39.519
We're gonna test it in a placebo controlled randomized clinical trial,
497
00:26:39.880 --> 00:26:43.720
and if we hit these endpoints, well, can we agree
498
00:26:43.720 --> 00:26:47.119
to approve this drug based on the design of this study.
499
00:26:47.839 --> 00:26:49.440
It's we have to go to the FDA, we have
500
00:26:49.440 --> 00:26:52.359
to design clinical studies, we have to do the clinical studies,
501
00:26:52.799 --> 00:26:55.759
and these are tens of millions of dollars and take many.
502
00:26:55.599 --> 00:26:59.759
Many years. I was just about to saying this is very.
503
00:26:59.599 --> 00:27:03.400
Cost It's very costly, you know. And I've intentionally avoided
504
00:27:04.039 --> 00:27:07.279
private equity money of venture capital money because I don't
505
00:27:07.319 --> 00:27:11.160
want these people interfering with the science, because they're more
506
00:27:11.200 --> 00:27:14.799
interested in making money than advancing the science. And exactly utually,
507
00:27:14.839 --> 00:27:16.359
for me, I'm not doing this for the money. I've
508
00:27:16.359 --> 00:27:19.039
made enough money in my career to live happily ever
509
00:27:19.079 --> 00:27:21.640
after so I can be bought and I will not
510
00:27:21.759 --> 00:27:23.599
be bought. But it's taken me a little bit longer
511
00:27:23.640 --> 00:27:26.759
because I have to self fund these studies and go
512
00:27:26.799 --> 00:27:31.480
out and raise money from people, individuals who know what
513
00:27:31.519 --> 00:27:34.480
we're doing, who understand what we're doing, who understand the
514
00:27:34.480 --> 00:27:37.839
global impact if we're successful, not if we're successful when
515
00:27:37.880 --> 00:27:40.200
we're successful, how this is going to change the world.
516
00:27:40.559 --> 00:27:42.720
And we're not doing it for the money. We're doing
517
00:27:42.759 --> 00:27:43.680
it to do the right thing.
518
00:27:44.960 --> 00:27:47.559
So I want to ask you, because we talked about
519
00:27:47.599 --> 00:27:50.559
the baseline, how do you measure and you said, okay,
520
00:27:50.640 --> 00:27:53.960
you look at the symptoms. I wanted a more quantitative
521
00:27:54.000 --> 00:27:56.319
measurement when we first met each other, so I asked
522
00:27:56.799 --> 00:28:00.559
cal Roy ed Hoy is a good friend of.
523
00:28:00.440 --> 00:28:02.960
Mine, and uh, you know, you know who.
524
00:28:02.799 --> 00:28:06.200
They are, and I assume that they're doing the glycocalyx
525
00:28:06.240 --> 00:28:10.359
and the they have a they have a nitric oxide product,
526
00:28:10.440 --> 00:28:11.359
and I.
527
00:28:11.319 --> 00:28:14.200
Asked them, they don't have a nitrocoxide product. They get
528
00:28:14.240 --> 00:28:19.000
potassium nitrate in a capsule. Nitride is not nitrocoxide. Okay,
529
00:28:19.240 --> 00:28:21.359
that's the record that I want to always keep.
530
00:28:21.240 --> 00:28:23.240
String Okay, sorry about that.
531
00:28:23.519 --> 00:28:27.559
We can electrocoxide product, but it's not a product.
532
00:28:30.400 --> 00:28:33.359
But however, they used the strips and I just had
533
00:28:33.400 --> 00:28:37.519
one right here, which I did right this morning, uh before,
534
00:28:37.559 --> 00:28:39.400
but I did it after I ate and I realized
535
00:28:39.400 --> 00:28:41.359
you slosed to do these on an empty stomach, and
536
00:28:41.400 --> 00:28:43.359
I so I probably I didn't do it right.
537
00:28:43.759 --> 00:28:47.880
But this is the one that Ed sent me and you.
538
00:28:47.799 --> 00:28:51.039
Said you developed those strips twenty five years ago and
539
00:28:51.079 --> 00:28:54.119
that you don't really use them as a measurement.
540
00:28:54.240 --> 00:28:57.119
So why is that? And and you know.
541
00:28:57.599 --> 00:29:00.279
If you wanted just a quick like, okay, how am
542
00:29:00.319 --> 00:29:02.960
I doing? And you know, yeah, I don't have any
543
00:29:03.000 --> 00:29:06.880
symptoms that you just described. I'm perfectly uh, you know,
544
00:29:07.119 --> 00:29:10.079
seemed perfectly fine. But I want to know, you know,
545
00:29:10.279 --> 00:29:12.640
is this product that I take, which I take your
546
00:29:12.720 --> 00:29:16.960
lodgingery every day, is this making a difference? And you know,
547
00:29:17.319 --> 00:29:19.880
and you know, we are a kind of a quantitative
548
00:29:20.759 --> 00:29:22.960
for sure. We always like to compete with each other
549
00:29:23.000 --> 00:29:26.440
and know what where what our score is, right, So this.
550
00:29:26.559 --> 00:29:28.920
Is one of the ways you do that. So so
551
00:29:28.960 --> 00:29:31.960
what else what can we do? If you don't, I'll
552
00:29:31.960 --> 00:29:32.359
tell you.
553
00:29:32.440 --> 00:29:34.799
I'll tell you the story, the backstory with those test strips.
554
00:29:35.640 --> 00:29:38.200
So when I launched my very first product technology, no
555
00:29:38.200 --> 00:29:41.240
one knew what nitrocoxide was. And the number one question
556
00:29:41.319 --> 00:29:43.519
we had, and we did market uh focus groups in
557
00:29:43.599 --> 00:29:45.720
market research, was how do I know if I need it?
558
00:29:46.599 --> 00:29:48.200
So the only way to do this, I mean, we
559
00:29:48.240 --> 00:29:50.640
could draw blood and that's what we did in the
560
00:29:50.640 --> 00:29:53.000
research lab. And I've published over one hundred peeroview papers
561
00:29:53.039 --> 00:29:56.839
on mapping out these nitrocoxxide metaboloids. But I thought, well,
562
00:29:56.880 --> 00:29:59.400
I can develop a salary test strip. So in two
563
00:29:59.440 --> 00:30:02.759
thousand and nine, I developed the first and only non
564
00:30:02.799 --> 00:30:06.039
invasive point of care diagnostic for nitrocoxide. And it's that
565
00:30:06.119 --> 00:30:10.240
exact same chemistry that's on that test strip. Factorum, we
566
00:30:10.319 --> 00:30:13.279
launched them, I filed patents on it, and several years
567
00:30:13.359 --> 00:30:16.599
into By the way, it's very old chemistry. It's called
568
00:30:16.640 --> 00:30:19.119
the grease reaction. It's probably over one hundred year old
569
00:30:19.200 --> 00:30:24.240
known chemical reaction. The chances of getting a patent on
570
00:30:24.279 --> 00:30:29.079
that chemistry was very low. So probably in twenty twelve
571
00:30:29.079 --> 00:30:31.400
twenty thirteen, when the bills were starting to come into
572
00:30:31.400 --> 00:30:35.680
the University of Texas on prosecuting that patent, and because
573
00:30:35.680 --> 00:30:37.680
we weren't making money on it, the university wasn't making
574
00:30:37.720 --> 00:30:40.640
money on it, agreed, Okay, let's abandon the patent because
575
00:30:41.240 --> 00:30:44.279
it's a tool, right you can. If you know what
576
00:30:44.359 --> 00:30:47.440
you're measuring, it's a useful tool. If you don't know
577
00:30:47.480 --> 00:30:51.680
what you're measuring, it's a deceptive tool. So number one,
578
00:30:51.759 --> 00:30:55.680
it is not a nitric oxide test trip. Now there's
579
00:30:56.240 --> 00:30:59.319
at least three or four companies out there selling my
580
00:30:59.440 --> 00:31:02.680
original salbrate test strips because I banon the patent and
581
00:31:02.759 --> 00:31:05.319
they certainly can do it, but they're still using it,
582
00:31:05.880 --> 00:31:09.240
and so what they're measuring, it's not measuring nitrocoxide. The
583
00:31:09.319 --> 00:31:12.880
chemistry is called the grease reaction. You put acidified sulfonillamite
584
00:31:12.920 --> 00:31:15.559
on that test strip, it reacts with nitrite in the
585
00:31:15.680 --> 00:31:18.880
saliva and it forms a diazo compound. It turns pink
586
00:31:19.640 --> 00:31:22.440
the five hundred and forty enemes, So if it turns pink,
587
00:31:22.519 --> 00:31:26.000
it tells us that your saliva's enriched did nitrite. It's
588
00:31:26.039 --> 00:31:29.559
nothing to do with nitrocoxide. But if you understand the
589
00:31:29.880 --> 00:31:34.759
metabolism sentaro salbrat circuit, that what it's really measuring is
590
00:31:35.599 --> 00:31:38.079
do you have the right oral bacteria and if you're
591
00:31:38.079 --> 00:31:41.359
getting enough nitrate from your diet, are the bacteria in
592
00:31:41.400 --> 00:31:45.119
your mouth on your tongue converting that nitrate into nitrite.
593
00:31:45.720 --> 00:31:49.559
That's what we're detecting. But it's also detecting the immune
594
00:31:49.559 --> 00:31:52.799
response to an oral infection. So if you have an
595
00:31:52.799 --> 00:31:55.279
active oral infection, if you've got infected root canals, if
596
00:31:55.279 --> 00:31:59.440
you've got cavitations, if you've got oral dyspiosis and there's
597
00:31:59.440 --> 00:32:03.519
an immune rey action occurring, our immune cells, macrophages, neutrophils,
598
00:32:03.519 --> 00:32:06.720
and monocytes produced nitric oxide so oxidized to tride in
599
00:32:06.759 --> 00:32:09.680
your saliva and you're picking up a local immune response.
600
00:32:10.680 --> 00:32:12.839
So the one of the reasons I abandoned that is
601
00:32:12.880 --> 00:32:16.599
because we would see people come in with high blood pressure,
602
00:32:17.119 --> 00:32:20.440
ten years of rectile dysfunction, they were diabetic, they were obese,
603
00:32:20.839 --> 00:32:24.160
they had a fatty fatty liver disease, and was say, here,
604
00:32:24.680 --> 00:32:26.400
use this test trip and they would light it up
605
00:32:26.480 --> 00:32:29.079
like a Christmas tree. You could see I make plenty
606
00:32:29.200 --> 00:32:32.680
nitric oxide and they go, no, we send him to
607
00:32:32.720 --> 00:32:35.079
a Dennis. We do a three DCT cone. He's eat
608
00:32:35.160 --> 00:32:38.319
up with oral infections. Right, and now we know that
609
00:32:38.440 --> 00:32:42.279
most people are walking around with asymptomatic infections and it's
610
00:32:42.319 --> 00:32:45.799
a it's a false positive, and it's a very dangerous
611
00:32:45.839 --> 00:32:48.240
false positive. So that's why I tell people, if you
612
00:32:48.400 --> 00:32:51.279
understand what that's measuring, and now you can interrogate it.
613
00:32:51.359 --> 00:32:54.000
If you're low, they're not a false negatives. And that's
614
00:32:54.000 --> 00:32:56.240
really if there's any utility to it, if you spit
615
00:32:56.319 --> 00:32:58.880
on it and it's low. You're low, you're nitric oxide
616
00:32:58.920 --> 00:33:02.480
deficient because you have any field dysfunction. Is it because
617
00:33:02.480 --> 00:33:04.680
you don't have the right oral bacteria. Is it because
618
00:33:04.680 --> 00:33:06.799
you're not getting enough nitrate from your diet. Is it
619
00:33:06.880 --> 00:33:09.079
because you take in acids or your stomach's not making
620
00:33:09.119 --> 00:33:11.880
stomach acid? Is it because you have a you know,
621
00:33:12.160 --> 00:33:16.759
silent receptor transported blockage in the in the salavary glands,
622
00:33:16.880 --> 00:33:19.519
because you have chogrin syndrome. I mean, there's a laundry
623
00:33:19.599 --> 00:33:22.400
list of things that could explain why you're nitric oxide defission.
624
00:33:23.400 --> 00:33:25.200
But then if you don't understand that, how do you
625
00:33:25.279 --> 00:33:29.680
fix it? Then telling you you're low, but don't understand
626
00:33:29.720 --> 00:33:32.759
the physiology about chemistry of why you're testing low, and
627
00:33:32.759 --> 00:33:34.720
they want to get they think they can fix your
628
00:33:34.799 --> 00:33:37.920
problem based on that test trip. I mean, it would
629
00:33:37.920 --> 00:33:39.599
be humorous if it wasn't dangerous.
630
00:33:40.759 --> 00:33:44.559
That's pretty amazing that you could get a bright pink result,
631
00:33:44.680 --> 00:33:47.079
think you're ok, you're great, and yet it's really an
632
00:33:47.200 --> 00:33:51.200
oral infection that's causing you to get this bright pink result.
633
00:33:52.359 --> 00:33:54.119
You know, and then people just going about their business,
634
00:33:54.160 --> 00:33:56.680
they never go see a biological dentist to look deeper.
635
00:33:56.720 --> 00:34:00.079
Than an X ray into a CT and realize they
636
00:34:00.079 --> 00:34:03.519
have an asymptomatic osteomocrotic infection going on. That's going to
637
00:34:03.599 --> 00:34:09.119
cause enormous problems fibromyalgia, autoimmune disease, cancers. I mean, it's
638
00:34:09.320 --> 00:34:09.840
bad news.
639
00:34:10.880 --> 00:34:14.119
So let's start from the top. Okay, starting at the head,
640
00:34:14.559 --> 00:34:17.159
because I'm going to go from the head to the toe. Okay,
641
00:34:17.239 --> 00:34:20.480
so let's I'm probably starting with the biggest one of all,
642
00:34:20.519 --> 00:34:22.400
which is Alzheimer's because it's the brain.
643
00:34:22.519 --> 00:34:24.760
But why don't you start there and say, you know,
644
00:34:24.960 --> 00:34:26.719
explain how the influence of.
645
00:34:27.519 --> 00:34:32.440
Low nitric oxide can affect the result in the production
646
00:34:32.639 --> 00:34:38.239
of of of beta amyloid or let's just say Alzheimer's
647
00:34:38.320 --> 00:34:38.880
or dimension.
648
00:34:39.840 --> 00:34:42.440
Well, there's a progression of this, right, it's called mod
649
00:34:42.519 --> 00:34:48.599
cognitive impairment, called Bastard dementia, Alzheimer's disease exactly just like
650
00:34:48.719 --> 00:34:51.800
any any disease, there's a progression. And so if you
651
00:34:51.880 --> 00:34:53.639
catch this early on, what do we call it brain
652
00:34:53.719 --> 00:34:56.239
fog or MCI mon cognitive impairment. If you look at
653
00:34:57.639 --> 00:34:59.320
cerebral blood flow, and you can do this through a
654
00:34:59.360 --> 00:35:03.159
functional MRI, you can do it through spec scans, which
655
00:35:03.159 --> 00:35:05.840
I like spec scins and doctor Daniel Laman's word, because
656
00:35:05.840 --> 00:35:08.400
it really tells us what parts of the brain are
657
00:35:08.480 --> 00:35:12.039
perfused in which are not, and so in these mild
658
00:35:12.119 --> 00:35:16.239
cognitive impairments, really any neurological disease, there's what's called focal
659
00:35:16.280 --> 00:35:18.239
a schemium. So if you look at a spec scan
660
00:35:18.360 --> 00:35:21.480
and dementia or Alzheimer's, the prefone of cortex and parts
661
00:35:21.519 --> 00:35:23.800
of the brain are don't show up on the spec scin,
662
00:35:24.320 --> 00:35:25.920
and that's because that part of the brain is not
663
00:35:26.000 --> 00:35:31.000
getting perfused. So it's called vascular dementia. Why because there's
664
00:35:31.039 --> 00:35:34.559
a vaster component to the dementia. There's loss of regulation
665
00:35:34.639 --> 00:35:37.039
of blood flow. Just like if you lose the regulation
666
00:35:37.119 --> 00:35:39.239
of blood flow to the sex organs, they fail. If
667
00:35:39.280 --> 00:35:41.400
you lose regulation of blood flow of the brain, it
668
00:35:41.559 --> 00:35:45.400
fails and symptoms manifest depending upon which readiers of the
669
00:35:45.440 --> 00:35:49.320
brain develop a schemi or hypoxia. And then number two,
670
00:35:49.760 --> 00:35:53.320
and you've heard this called Alzheimer's, we called diabetes type three.
671
00:35:53.920 --> 00:35:57.719
It's insulin resistance in the brain. So number one, if
672
00:35:57.719 --> 00:36:00.280
you're not getting oxygen and nutrients to the parts of
673
00:36:00.320 --> 00:36:02.840
the brain and you can't get glucose into the cell
674
00:36:03.000 --> 00:36:05.199
for that cell to make ATP or cell your energy.
675
00:36:05.199 --> 00:36:07.719
If that's cell to do its job, you get misfolding
676
00:36:07.760 --> 00:36:11.039
a protein. And then what is that misfolded protein. We
677
00:36:11.119 --> 00:36:14.199
call that tau tangle. We call it amyloid plaque. That's
678
00:36:14.239 --> 00:36:16.599
what shows up in the later stages. So how you
679
00:36:16.719 --> 00:36:20.880
fix it. You perfuse the brain, You give nitrocoxide, you
680
00:36:20.960 --> 00:36:23.920
dilate the blood vessels. In twenty eleven, my research group
681
00:36:24.039 --> 00:36:26.400
was the first group in the history of nitrocoxide to
682
00:36:26.440 --> 00:36:30.960
show that nitrocoxide is required for insulin signaling. For insulin
683
00:36:31.000 --> 00:36:32.880
to do its job, it binds to the instant receptor,
684
00:36:32.920 --> 00:36:38.239
starts an intrasidar signaling cascade, activates nitrocoxide production. Nitrocoxide activates
685
00:36:38.280 --> 00:36:41.079
glute forourd glute four goes to the membrane brings glucose in.
686
00:36:41.559 --> 00:36:44.639
Without nitrocoxide production, glute four never gets the signal. You
687
00:36:44.719 --> 00:36:48.320
develop insular resistance. So instant resistance is a symptom of
688
00:36:48.440 --> 00:36:53.239
nitrocoxide deficiency. So when we give nitrocoxide to dementia patients,
689
00:36:53.280 --> 00:36:57.119
we dilate the bloodvessils, We perfuse the brain. We show
690
00:36:57.119 --> 00:37:00.960
the improvement on spec skins and NMRI, and we improve
691
00:37:01.039 --> 00:37:04.960
glucose ubtake into the cell. So if we're delivering oxygen,
692
00:37:05.000 --> 00:37:08.599
delivering nutrients, activating mitochondric getting glucose into the cell, so
693
00:37:08.639 --> 00:37:12.480
the mitochondric can make sailor energy and atp the proteins
694
00:37:12.519 --> 00:37:14.360
do their job, the enzymes do their job. You don't
695
00:37:14.360 --> 00:37:17.119
get misfolding of proteins. There's no tall tangle, there's no
696
00:37:17.239 --> 00:37:21.159
amyloid plaque, and there's no loss of cognition. That's why
697
00:37:21.280 --> 00:37:24.639
nitric oxide will be the end the cure to Alzheimer's,
698
00:37:24.679 --> 00:37:28.079
and that's why all drugs against Alzheimer's have failed, because
699
00:37:28.159 --> 00:37:31.760
amyloid plaque and tall tangles do not cause disease. They're
700
00:37:31.800 --> 00:37:35.639
the consequence of disease. And developing drug targets towards the
701
00:37:35.679 --> 00:37:39.800
consequence of any disease is a sure failure. And it's
702
00:37:39.880 --> 00:37:43.239
unfortunate that companies just spent billions and billions of dollars
703
00:37:43.320 --> 00:37:45.719
of taxpayer money on target.
704
00:37:46.599 --> 00:37:50.880
I know doctor Gale Brettison, who is the father of.
705
00:37:53.280 --> 00:37:58.920
The natural cures to Alzheimer's, which was on my podcast,
706
00:37:59.000 --> 00:38:00.800
and he said that same thing.
707
00:38:01.360 --> 00:38:04.679
You know that they're just missing what is it forty billion.
708
00:38:04.400 --> 00:38:07.519
Dollars or something like that has been spent on Alzheimer's
709
00:38:07.599 --> 00:38:09.599
drugs with no success.
710
00:38:10.039 --> 00:38:12.320
That that's like shameful and.
711
00:38:14.599 --> 00:38:16.280
Sorry, it's very predictable.
712
00:38:16.599 --> 00:38:20.360
Yeah, why why have they ignored NITROGOTSA.
713
00:38:20.440 --> 00:38:24.000
I mean, if they would be so easy to with
714
00:38:24.159 --> 00:38:28.480
the current drugs to now incorporate the knowledge that you're
715
00:38:28.599 --> 00:38:32.159
providing and the world you know of medicine is providing
716
00:38:32.239 --> 00:38:35.920
with nitrogotxa, why haven't they recognized that and done something
717
00:38:35.960 --> 00:38:36.320
about it?
718
00:38:37.440 --> 00:38:40.320
Well, Number one, these companies are for profit companies, right,
719
00:38:40.400 --> 00:38:42.320
and I have a number of patents on ways that
720
00:38:42.400 --> 00:38:45.159
we deliver nitrocoxide. Look, there's many ways to skin a cat.
721
00:38:45.239 --> 00:38:50.000
They can, there's other technologies out there. But in big business,
722
00:38:50.280 --> 00:38:53.159
there is no money in cures, right, the money and
723
00:38:53.280 --> 00:38:56.960
the trillion dollar big form of business is dependent upon
724
00:38:57.119 --> 00:39:00.719
monthly recurring revenue, getting people on drug and keeping them
725
00:39:00.800 --> 00:39:02.440
on drugs for the rest of em No matter what
726
00:39:02.559 --> 00:39:05.400
business you're in, a for profit business has two goals.
727
00:39:05.440 --> 00:39:07.840
Get as many customers as you can and retain the
728
00:39:07.920 --> 00:39:10.880
customer for as long as you can. Yeah, that's that's
729
00:39:10.920 --> 00:39:11.440
the big I.
730
00:39:11.440 --> 00:39:14.679
Mean, the drug companies have the best business model that
731
00:39:14.880 --> 00:39:18.159
exists in the world because they can't.
732
00:39:18.480 --> 00:39:20.239
They basically capture you.
733
00:39:20.440 --> 00:39:22.559
You know, you take one drug to help another drug
734
00:39:22.639 --> 00:39:26.000
that helps another drug, and you know, so basically, yeah,
735
00:39:26.039 --> 00:39:30.639
I mean it's crazy because they you're basically addicted to
736
00:39:30.800 --> 00:39:34.920
using pharmaceutical drugs and it's a it's a downward spiral,
737
00:39:35.000 --> 00:39:36.039
it's a big black hole.
738
00:39:36.760 --> 00:39:39.360
No, it's it's the best business model in the world,
739
00:39:39.519 --> 00:39:43.800
multi trillion dollar global economy. But what's the expense. The
740
00:39:43.840 --> 00:39:46.599
expense is our own health and drugs have made.
741
00:39:48.000 --> 00:39:51.719
Okay, so let's go to the nasal the next I'm
742
00:39:51.760 --> 00:39:52.880
heading down south.
743
00:39:52.960 --> 00:39:55.440
Okay, so we're going to end up at erectile dysfunction,
744
00:39:55.559 --> 00:39:56.960
but I want to make sure we have time to
745
00:39:57.039 --> 00:39:57.199
do it.
746
00:39:57.679 --> 00:40:00.840
So what about the nasal breathing and and versus the
747
00:40:01.079 --> 00:40:04.480
mouth breathing. Why is that beneficial? And what can people
748
00:40:04.559 --> 00:40:05.960
do to change their habit?
749
00:40:06.800 --> 00:40:09.360
Well, the same enzyme that's found in are endothelo cells
750
00:40:09.400 --> 00:40:12.960
that produces nitrocoxide. The nitrocoxide synthase enzyme is also found
751
00:40:13.000 --> 00:40:15.880
in our upper airways, the epithelial cells. So we do
752
00:40:16.039 --> 00:40:18.960
nasal breathing, it activates these epithilal cells and turns on
753
00:40:19.119 --> 00:40:24.719
nitro production. We do dasel breathing, we're actually delivering nitrocoxide
754
00:40:24.760 --> 00:40:28.159
gas into the pulmary circulation, so we're dilating the pulmonary arteries.
755
00:40:28.199 --> 00:40:32.199
Now we're matching ventilation to perfusion, and we're improving tissue oxygenation.
756
00:40:32.679 --> 00:40:36.119
But it's also dilating the bronchiles. So nitrocoxide is a
757
00:40:36.159 --> 00:40:39.920
smooth muscle relaxing, relaxes the smooth muscles on the blood vessels,
758
00:40:39.920 --> 00:40:42.960
relaxes smooth muscles around the bronchiles. So now we're dilating
759
00:40:43.000 --> 00:40:48.039
the bronochiles, dilating the arteries, improving oxygenation. But if the
760
00:40:48.199 --> 00:40:50.280
enzyme is uncoupled and not functional, so if you have
761
00:40:50.400 --> 00:40:54.039
nithenyal dysfunction, you have epithial dysfunction. And we tested this.
762
00:40:54.159 --> 00:40:56.440
We take young healthy individuals do nasal breathing. We can
763
00:40:56.480 --> 00:40:59.000
detect nitrocoxide out of the ease heal breath. We take
764
00:40:59.000 --> 00:41:01.679
a fifty year old person with EED do nase of breathing.
765
00:41:01.719 --> 00:41:05.199
There's no nitrocoxide. So again we have to focus on
766
00:41:05.400 --> 00:41:08.800
restoring the function of the nos enzyme. Rgentie didn't go
767
00:41:08.920 --> 00:41:11.840
fix it. Beats aren't gonna fix it. Centrally, it didn't
768
00:41:11.840 --> 00:41:15.360
go fix it. I have to understand the enzomology about chemistry. Now,
769
00:41:16.239 --> 00:41:19.360
if your mouth breathe, not only are you bypassing that
770
00:41:19.519 --> 00:41:23.800
nitrocoxide production pathway, but now you're you're completely oxygenating the
771
00:41:23.960 --> 00:41:27.599
oral cavity. You're changing the oral microbiome, You're acidifying the saliva.
772
00:41:28.039 --> 00:41:31.719
All the nitrocoxide producing bacteria go away, all the pathogens
773
00:41:31.760 --> 00:41:34.920
come in. Now you have chronic halatosis, you have an
774
00:41:34.960 --> 00:41:37.639
acidic saliva, you have carrious causing bacteria, you have paradonal
775
00:41:37.679 --> 00:41:41.559
disease causing bacteria. Performonis gingivite is all the really bad
776
00:41:41.719 --> 00:41:46.440
red pathogens you see on dental pathogens and start to
777
00:41:46.480 --> 00:41:49.840
show up. And you don't oxygenate at night, And so
778
00:41:50.199 --> 00:41:53.079
I mean in ten time increase in all cause mortality
779
00:41:53.119 --> 00:41:53.800
through mouthbreathing.
780
00:41:54.840 --> 00:41:55.719
So that means.
781
00:41:57.639 --> 00:41:59.679
What you do in the daytime, you know, you have
782
00:41:59.760 --> 00:42:02.400
to be aware of that, but at night it's when
783
00:42:02.480 --> 00:42:05.800
most people really are doing the wrong thing, which is
784
00:42:05.920 --> 00:42:09.679
mouth breathing. So tape do mouth taping, which I read
785
00:42:09.719 --> 00:42:13.800
about from a number of biological dentists that they're advocating that.
786
00:42:14.079 --> 00:42:17.000
So you can buy those you know mouth tapes and
787
00:42:17.199 --> 00:42:17.519
use them.
788
00:42:17.800 --> 00:42:20.920
Are you advocating that as a as a methodology from
789
00:42:21.000 --> 00:42:22.000
night for sleeping.
790
00:42:22.559 --> 00:42:25.039
Well, First of all, I encourage anybody who's a mouth
791
00:42:25.079 --> 00:42:29.480
breathering to go see an airway specialist, either at an ear,
792
00:42:29.519 --> 00:42:33.320
nose and throat doctor or a dentist who's an airway specialist,
793
00:42:33.400 --> 00:42:35.239
because you don't want a mouth tape if you get
794
00:42:35.239 --> 00:42:39.559
an anatomical obstruction, that's right. And because tape in your mouth,
795
00:42:39.599 --> 00:42:41.360
I mean you could literally suffocate. You have to have
796
00:42:41.440 --> 00:42:43.320
an airway for them to be oxygen exchange.
797
00:42:43.400 --> 00:42:43.760
That's right.
798
00:42:44.079 --> 00:42:47.039
Many people have anatomical issues, they have a small mouth,
799
00:42:47.679 --> 00:42:51.039
you know, right, they have an obstructed airways. So first,
800
00:42:51.119 --> 00:42:53.719
before you ever consider taping your mouth, go do the
801
00:42:53.880 --> 00:42:56.199
airway specialists and make sure you don't have an obstructive
802
00:42:56.199 --> 00:42:58.440
ay way. But yeah, if you've got if you've got
803
00:42:58.480 --> 00:43:01.480
an open airway, mouth taping. I do it occasionally if
804
00:43:01.519 --> 00:43:03.679
I'm outside I've got allergies and i feel a little snuffy,
805
00:43:04.639 --> 00:43:06.119
but I've got an open airway, so I can do
806
00:43:06.239 --> 00:43:08.199
mouth taping and you know, you feel the difference of
807
00:43:08.280 --> 00:43:08.920
it the next morning.
808
00:43:09.280 --> 00:43:10.079
Yeah, for sure.
809
00:43:10.199 --> 00:43:12.159
I started doing it a little bit and it does
810
00:43:12.239 --> 00:43:14.159
make a difference, and I think how deep you sleep?
811
00:43:15.599 --> 00:43:15.920
All right?
812
00:43:16.039 --> 00:43:19.519
So now next is the microbio the oral microbiome. So
813
00:43:19.800 --> 00:43:22.639
can you give me a one minute description of how
814
00:43:22.679 --> 00:43:26.360
the nitrocoxide influences the oral microbion.
815
00:43:26.920 --> 00:43:31.079
Well, the oral microbiome is influencing nitrocoxide production. So we
816
00:43:31.239 --> 00:43:34.960
have what's called nitrate reducing bacteria that reduces nitrate to
817
00:43:35.079 --> 00:43:37.639
electron reduction to nitrite. And now we swallow it's aliva
818
00:43:38.079 --> 00:43:41.079
and make nitrocoxide. But without the bacteria, you know, we
819
00:43:41.199 --> 00:43:44.239
lose the cardioprotective benefits of diet, we lose the cardioprotective
820
00:43:44.239 --> 00:43:48.119
benefits of exercise. So when we do things like have
821
00:43:48.239 --> 00:43:50.519
flouride in our toothpaste, which kills all the bacteria in
822
00:43:50.519 --> 00:43:53.360
your mouth. When we use antiseptic mouthwashed, which two out
823
00:43:53.360 --> 00:43:56.639
of three Americans usee mouthwashed everythy killing the bacteria, it
824
00:43:56.960 --> 00:44:00.239
shuts down nitrocoxide production and your blood pressure goes up.
825
00:44:00.719 --> 00:44:02.800
Blood pressure goes up, the number one driver, the number
826
00:44:02.840 --> 00:44:05.440
one killer of men and women worldwide. So and we
827
00:44:05.760 --> 00:44:07.880
and others a publish that if you destroy the microbiome,
828
00:44:07.960 --> 00:44:11.920
it's causal for high blood pressure. So if you're using mouthwashed.
829
00:44:11.960 --> 00:44:15.199
You have to stop, use a fluoride free toothpaste, and
830
00:44:15.320 --> 00:44:18.079
then start doing things that restore and support the microbiome
831
00:44:18.119 --> 00:44:19.559
instead of destroying them.
832
00:44:20.480 --> 00:44:23.239
You know, I'm so shocked when I go to these dentists,
833
00:44:23.280 --> 00:44:27.000
I do you know, I have a biological I mean,
834
00:44:27.079 --> 00:44:32.280
a regular hygiene and they're not. They're more you know,
835
00:44:32.920 --> 00:44:35.119
in tune to allopathic approaches of but ye.
836
00:44:35.920 --> 00:44:38.880
So you know, they open up their cabinet at the
837
00:44:39.000 --> 00:44:41.559
end of a session and they want to give you
838
00:44:42.119 --> 00:44:45.119
a goodie bag, you know, to take home, and it's
839
00:44:45.239 --> 00:44:46.760
flora tice paste.
840
00:44:46.519 --> 00:44:51.639
It's chloro hexacrene or whatever that mouth I mean, it's
841
00:44:51.679 --> 00:44:52.639
all the stuff that's so.
842
00:44:52.719 --> 00:44:53.239
Bad for you.
843
00:44:53.400 --> 00:44:55.960
And then when you do any kind of procedure, they
844
00:44:56.039 --> 00:44:57.880
want you to use an antibiotic.
845
00:44:58.000 --> 00:44:59.760
And that's the first thing they do when you.
846
00:44:59.800 --> 00:45:02.519
Walk is you know, they want It's like it's like candy,
847
00:45:03.239 --> 00:45:05.639
and I always stuff them in my pocket.
848
00:45:05.760 --> 00:45:07.480
You know, they think I'm taking it, but I never do.
849
00:45:08.000 --> 00:45:11.400
But you know, the these are the things to be
850
00:45:11.559 --> 00:45:11.960
aware of.
851
00:45:12.119 --> 00:45:16.440
I mean, traditionally the dentists you're going to go to
852
00:45:16.679 --> 00:45:19.360
most people are not going to biological dentists.
853
00:45:19.400 --> 00:45:22.239
So you're going to be offered. And then we still
854
00:45:22.280 --> 00:45:24.840
have the government dealing with the fluoride in our water
855
00:45:25.599 --> 00:45:28.159
and our and the truth pasted is just a byproduct
856
00:45:28.199 --> 00:45:32.599
of that. So it's a it's a it's a slippery slope.
857
00:45:32.719 --> 00:45:36.960
I mean, you really, you have to navigate your own
858
00:45:37.280 --> 00:45:41.239
journey and make your own decisions. But if anybody that's
859
00:45:41.320 --> 00:45:47.159
watching today is still using mouthwash, alcohol based mouthwash, throw
860
00:45:47.239 --> 00:45:47.480
it in.
861
00:45:47.559 --> 00:45:51.880
The trash, right, get rid of it. And and even
862
00:45:52.360 --> 00:45:53.840
what do you think about oil pulling?
863
00:45:54.039 --> 00:45:54.639
Is that? Is that?
864
00:45:54.800 --> 00:45:55.119
Okay?
865
00:45:55.480 --> 00:45:57.960
The coconuta you know, the short answer is, we don't
866
00:45:58.000 --> 00:46:00.079
know because we've never done the experiment. But you know,
867
00:46:00.119 --> 00:46:01.679
I don't think it's an a septic. I think it's
868
00:46:01.679 --> 00:46:05.880
a it's a good practice that many biological dyonists and yeah, recommend,
869
00:46:05.920 --> 00:46:07.440
but I don't see any downside to it. But we
870
00:46:07.559 --> 00:46:07.880
just don't know.
871
00:46:09.159 --> 00:46:11.679
Okay, So the next one down I'm saying would be,
872
00:46:12.119 --> 00:46:17.039
uh oh, he's telling me hold on, okay, he's.
873
00:46:16.880 --> 00:46:19.760
Telling me we're out of time. Oh dude, Well you
874
00:46:19.840 --> 00:46:22.000
know what, Nathan, We're going to have you back. I'm
875
00:46:22.079 --> 00:46:24.039
so sorry. I wanted to go down through all the
876
00:46:24.480 --> 00:46:25.000
you know, the.
877
00:46:25.719 --> 00:46:30.159
The organs and particularly the gut microbione and the heart
878
00:46:30.280 --> 00:46:33.880
of course, and well and of course the erectile issue.
879
00:46:33.920 --> 00:46:37.440
But we'll make that happen in another session. Are you
880
00:46:37.519 --> 00:46:39.000
okay with doing another.
881
00:46:40.159 --> 00:46:42.679
I love these conversations. These are very important conversations people
882
00:46:42.880 --> 00:46:43.320
I know, and.
883
00:46:43.400 --> 00:46:45.719
You're doing such an important thing for all of us.
884
00:46:45.880 --> 00:46:48.599
Really, I just before we go, I really want to
885
00:46:48.800 --> 00:46:51.400
just tell everybody if you want to order, and I'm
886
00:46:51.440 --> 00:46:54.960
not everybody knows I'm not commercial, but when I take
887
00:46:55.039 --> 00:46:58.239
a product and I know the difference, I want to
888
00:46:58.360 --> 00:47:00.920
share it with other people. And I've been using since
889
00:47:00.960 --> 00:47:02.960
I met you a year and a half, a little
890
00:47:03.000 --> 00:47:06.199
over a year ago, I've been using your N.
891
00:47:06.239 --> 00:47:09.199
One oh one the Lozengers. That's the only product I
892
00:47:09.280 --> 00:47:12.079
ever got, But I know you have many others. So
893
00:47:12.199 --> 00:47:13.039
go check out.
894
00:47:13.760 --> 00:47:18.079
Nathan's website and Tony's our producer is going to put
895
00:47:18.079 --> 00:47:21.000
it on the screen for everybody, and my assistant will
896
00:47:21.039 --> 00:47:23.159
have it in the show notes. So if you want
897
00:47:23.199 --> 00:47:25.840
to order any of his products, you can do so
898

Is gives you a ten percent So I will get
900
00:47:32.320 --> 00:47:32.960
you the code.
901
00:47:33.119 --> 00:47:36.039
I don't have it right with me today, but we
902
00:47:36.119 --> 00:47:38.280
will add that in so that people know how to

So Nathan, thank you so much. And I'm really sorry
905
00:47:41.920 --> 00:47:43.719
I have to cut his short, but I love what
906
00:47:44.400 --> 00:47:44.639
I think.
907
00:47:44.679 --> 00:47:46.920
We covered a lot of ground today and it's very,
