Egg Meets Sperm Is Nitric Oxide the Missing Piece in Fertility & Whole-Body Health?
In this groundbreaking conversation, we dive deep into the science and power of nitric oxide—a tiny molecule with a massive role in fertility, circulation, immune health, and cellular communication. From supporting erections and ovulation to influencing embryo development and even brain function, nitric oxide is proving to be one of the most overlooked yet critical elements in reproductive and overall health.
Joined me in this conversation with Dr Nathan Bryan!
Dr. Bryan earned his undergraduate Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry from the University of Texas at Austin and his doctoral degree from Louisiana State University School of Medicine in Shreveport, where he was the recipient of the Dean’s Award for Excellence in Research. He pursued his post-doctoral training as a Kirschstein Fellow at Boston University School of Medicine in the Whitaker Cardiovascular Institute. After a two-year post-doctoral fellowship, in 2006, Dr. Bryan was recruited to join the faculty at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston by Ferid Murad, M.D., Ph.D., 1998 Nobel Laureate in Medicine or Physiology. Dr. Bryan has been involved in nitric oxide research for the past 20 years and has made many seminal discoveries in the field. His many seminal discoveries have resulted in dozens of issued US and International patents, and the product technology resulting from his discoveries and inventions has improved patient care worldwide. Dr. Bryan is a successful entrepreneur and the Founder of HumanN, Inc, Pneuma Nitric Oxide, LLC, Nitric Oxide Innovations, LLC, and Bryan Nitriceuticals, LLC. His product technology is responsible for hundreds of millions of product sales worldwide. Most recently, Dr. Bryan serves as Founder and CEO of Nitric Oxide Innovations, LLC, a privately-held, clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company that is actively engaged in the discovery and development of nitric oxide-based therapies. NOI has several drug candidates in phase 3 clinical trials. Dr. Bryan is an international leader in molecular medicine and nitric oxide biochemistry.
