In this week's episode,  Dr. Fiona Lovely speaks with Cathy Eason, a certified holistic nutritionist and clinical educator, about nitric oxide (NO), often called the "miracle molecule" for its vital role in blood flow and thus, overall health. 

We talk about the groundbreaking findings from a pilot study on nitric oxide’s impact on women's sexual health, revealing significant improvements in desire (75%), lubrication (58%), orgasm (83%), and reduced discomfort (83%) among participants who took two capsules of nitric oxide daily for 60 days. Beyond sexual function, we discuss optimal blood flow, facilitated by nitric oxide, which is essential for nutrient and oxygen delivery, waste removal, and hormone transmission throughout the body.

Cathy Eason explains that nitric oxide levels naturally decline by about 50% by age 40, which is concerning for women during perimenopause and menopause.  It impacts cardiovascular health, brain function, and energy levels. You can boost your nitric oxides by eating foods like leafy greens and the Berkeley Life supplements, along with practices like nostril breathing and exercise, can support its production. Cathy shares how to use the Berkley Life test strips which offer a practical way to monitor personal nitric oxide levels. Cathy also shares her personal experience using nitric oxide to support her in recovery from mold exposure, noting its benefits for detox, cellular energy, and immune system health.

You can learn more about Cathy Eason through her LinkedIn profile, or explore her work with Berkeley Life, a company focused on stress resilience and nitric oxide-boosting supplements.
