Text us a comment or question!What if the secret to slowing - or even reversing - the effects of aging was already inside your body? In this fascinating conversation, Coach Kevin sits down with Dr. Nathan Bryan, world-renowned molecular scientist, nitric oxide researcher, and biotech entrepreneur, to uncover the molecule that could be the key to lasting energy, vitality, and longevity. Nitric oxide (NO) is often called the body’s master signaling molecule - it regulates blood flow, oxygen delivery, metabolism, and even sexual health. But here’s the kicker: production of this critical molecule drops by as much as 50% by the time we reach our 40s and 50 - leading to fatigue, brain fog, high blood pressure, erectile dysfunction, and accelerated aging. Dr. Bryan breaks down why nitric oxide levels decline, the lifestyle habits that sabotage your body’s ability to make it, and simple science-backed strategies to restore production naturally - so you can feel decades younger from the inside out. If you care about optimal health, performance, and aging well… this episode is a must-listen. In This Episode, You’ll Learn:What nitric oxide is - and why it’s essential for every system in your bodyThe four major signs you might be nitric oxide deficientHow common habits like mouthwash, fluoride, and antacids destroy nitric oxide productionThe role of nitric oxide in sexual performance, heart health, and brain function Why “beet supplements” might not be doing what you think they areThe simple daily practices that naturally boost nitric oxide (including one most people overlook)How nitric oxide could revolutionize medicine, aging, and human performance Resources & LinksConnect with Dr. Nathan Bryan: https://www.n1o1.comFollow Dr. Bryan on Instagram: @drnathansbryanCheck out Dr. Bryan’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@DrNathanSBryanNitricOxideGrab his book: The Secret of Nitric Oxide: Bringing the Science to Life - https://www.amazon.com/Secret-Nitric-Oxide-Bringing-Science-Life/dp/1899694307/ Want to Build a Lean, Strong, Vital Body After 50?Join Coach Kevin and the team at The Silver Edge for personalized nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle coaching designed to help you look and feel your best at any age.👉 https://www.silveredgefitness.com👉 Join The Silver Edge Collective today and start building a lean, strong, healthy body you love for the rest of your life! https://go.silveredgefitness.com/silver-edge-collective
