In a world saturated with health fads and fleeting diet and fitness trends, one company, HumanN, has risen above the noise to deliver extraordinary results.
In fact, you may have seen me, my wife Lori, and our dog Molly in a recent HumanN commercial. I am in this commercial because I believe in the product and the company, and I use it every day. Why do I feel so strongly about this company? Simple. Because HumanN combines scientific rigor with proven methods to increase your healthspan.
The commercial we appeared in leaves you curious and wanting more, so in this article, I will focus on sharing why I’m a huge believer in their beetroot products: NEO40, SuperBeets Heart Chews, and SuperBeets pre-workout powder.
I chose these products because of a concept that ties them all together, which is the fact that our body’s natural nitric oxide (NO) production declines as we age.
These 5 factors contribute to this decrease in nitric oxide levels, including:
Endothelial Dysfunction: Nitric oxide is primarily produced by the endothelium, the inner lining of blood vessels. The endothelial cells may experience dysfunction with age, reducing their ability to create and release nitric oxide.
Oxidative Stress: Aging is associated with increased oxidative stress, which occurs when there is an imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the body’s antioxidant defenses. Oxidative stress can impair enzyme activity in nitric oxide production, leading to decreased levels.
Reduced Nitric Oxide Synthase (NOS) Activity: Nitric oxide is synthesized by enzymes called nitric oxide synthases (NOS). With age, there may be a decline in the activity and expression of NOS enzymes, resulting in lower nitric oxide production.
Accumulation of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS): Reactive oxygen species (created by our use of oxygen) can interact with nitric oxide, leading to its degradation and reduced bioavailability. As we age, the accumulation of ROS can interfere with nitric oxide signaling pathways, leading to decreased levels.
Age-Related Conditions: Certain age-related conditions, such as hypertension, diabetes, and atherosclerosis, can further contribute to decreased nitric oxide levels. These conditions can impair endothelial function and disrupt the production and availability of nitric oxide.
The decrease in nitric oxide levels with age is significant as nitric oxide plays a vital role in maintaining cardiovascular health, regulating blood pressure, promoting vasodilation, and supporting overall vascular function. The decline in nitric oxide can contribute to age-related conditions such as hypertension, impaired blood flow, and increased risk of cardiovascular diseases.
However, it’s important to note that lifestyle factors, such as regular exercise, a healthy diet, and stress management, can help support nitric oxide production and mitigate age-related decline, but more is needed.
The following is a review of each of HumanN’s beetroot products:
NEO 40 – A Supernova of Cardiovascular Support
In my opinion this product is the key that unlocks the gateway to a healthier heart and improved circulation. Neo40 is our proprietary, patented formula from the University of Texas Health Science Center’s Nitric Oxide Discovery Program. With its state-of-the-art formulation, NEO 40 harnesses the power of nature to support nitric oxide production in the body, leading to a cascade of benefits.
This extraordinary supplement combines the awe-inspiring forces of beetroot extract and hawthorn berry, igniting a cardiovascular revolution.
L-arginine-based supplements depend on the healthy function of a critical enzyme called eNOS (Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase) to convert L-arginine into nitric oxide.
By age 40, your eNOS Function may be compromised, resulting in a decline in Nitric Oxide production through your diet and reduced efficacy from L-arginine supplements (this is where the number 40 comes into play).
NEO-40 will correct this deficiency and allow you to continue to produce nitric oxide.
SUPERBEETS HEART CHEWS – An On-the-go Cardio Powerhouse
I like to call SuperBeets Heart Chews a delectable love affair with cardiovascular vitality because they’re delicious. In my opinion, SuperBeets Heart Chews have redefined the very essence of convenient health. These delectable chews, infused with non-GMO beets, are more than a mere treat for your palate. They are a fusion of nutrition and on-the-go support designed to unleash your cardiovascular potential.
SuperBeets Heart Chews boost nitric oxide levels, nurture your circulatory system, and improve endurance. They also contain clinically researched grape seed extract in every serving to help support healthy blood pressure, circulation, and nitric oxide production and promote heart-healthy energy without caffeine, stimulants, or artificial sweeteners.
