Your fluoride toothpaste and antiseptic mouthwash may be sabotaging your cardiovascular health and canceling out the benefits of your daily workout.
In today’s episode, I sit down with Dr. Nathan Bryan to uncover how nitric oxide deficiency drives high blood pressure, erectile dysfunction, insulin resistance, and even Alzheimer’s disease.
Nathan explains why 50% of men on Viagra don’t respond with better erections, how mouthwash kills the bacteria your body needs to produce nitric oxide, and why heavy metals scavenge this critical molecule before it can reach your blood vessels.
We explore practical solutions such as using nitric oxide lozenges, reducing exposure to harmful substances, and supporting the oral microbiome to restore your body’s natural production.
Key discussion points…
- Introduction: nitric oxide and its importance for our health
- Nitric oxide and erectile dysfunction
- Exercise and bacteria for nitric oxide production
- Oral microbiome and dangers in your mouthwash
- Signs and consequences of low nitric oxide
- Age-related decline in nitric oxide production
- Heavy metals and toxins that scavenge nitric oxide
- How to restore nitric oxide
- Nitric oxide lozenges and skin care solutions
- The beet product myth debunked
- High blood pressure medication limitations
Without nitric oxide, your body cannot heal. It’s not going to get adequate blood flow, you’re going to experience runaway inflammation, oxidative stress, and immune dysfunction.

N1O1 Nitric Oxide Lozenges
These orally disintegrating tablets produce therapeutic nitric oxide gas right in the mouth as they dissolve over five to six minutes. The slow-release formulation dilates carotid arteries, improves cerebral blood flow, and opens microcirculation to oxygenate all organ tissues and cells. They also restore healthy oral nitrate-reducing bacteria while killing pathogens for better long-term nitric oxide production.
N1O1 Nitric Oxide Skincare Serum
This dual-chamber serum mixes on application to generate nitric oxide gas that diffuses into the dermis. It recruits capillaries, dilates blood vessels, improves oxygenation, mobilizes stem cells, and boosts cellular turnover, visible as a healthy pink flush. Clinical trials show increased collagen deposition, reduced fine lines, better hydration, acne scar improvement, and rosacea relief.
Puori Grass Fed Whey Protein
Every batch is third-party tested for over two hundred contaminants, including heavy metals, and published online for full transparency via QR code. It delivers 21 grams of clean protein from grass-fed cows with six grams of branch chain amino acids and no hormones, GMOs, or pesticides. Delicious bourbon, vanilla, and dark chocolate flavors make it easy to add to smoothies or recipes for daily support of muscles, joints, gut health, and vitality.

This frequency-enhanced facial serum helps smooth skin, boost elasticity, and reduce the appearance of fine lines. With over 2,000 energetic signatures imprinted on a base of fruit enzymes, oat kernel extract, algae, and chlorella, it’s designed to nourish your skin while supporting emotional detox. I use it nightly under my moisturizer.
Organifi Collagen
This blend combines five collagen types from four clean sources to support joint mobility, skin firmness, gut repair, and overall vitality as natural production drops with age. It is rigorously tested for glyphosate, heavy metals, and purity to avoid toxins that undermine benefits. The great taste mixes easily into drinks and helps counteract a 30% loss of collagen during the first few years of menopause.
Chef’s Foundry P600 Ceramic Cookware
These fully non-toxic ceramic pans contain zero Teflon, PFAS, or plastics that leach microplastics and endocrine disruptors into food during cooking. Even minor scratches on traditional non-stick surfaces release thousands of particles linked to inflammation, heart risks, and hormonal issues.
