Most people know oxygen. Some know carbon dioxide.
But there’s a third gas that rarely gets mentioned—
And without it, the others can’t do their job.
Why nitric oxide is the body's “miracle molecule”
You’ve heard of oxygen and CO₂—but nitric oxide is the third vital gas. It’s essential for:
Oxygen delivery to cells
Lowering blood pressure
Preventing cardiovascular disease
Boosting immune function and killing viruses
Enhancing athletic performance and sexual health
“Most chronic diseases are associated with a loss of nitric oxide production. If we can restore it, we can change the world.” — Dr. Nathan Bryan
The power of nasal breathing
Nasal breathing isn't just more efficient; it actively stimulates nitric oxide production. And without NO, oxygen can't do its job.
Just nasal breathing can activate and stimulate the production of this very important molecule.
Mouth breathing: The hidden health risk
Mouth breathing not only shuts down nitric oxide production, it disrupts the oral microbiome and increases the risk of high blood pressure, poor sleep, inflammation, and even cognitive decline.
“Mouth breathing is one of the worst things we can do for nitric oxide and cardiovascular health.”
