  The Power of Nitric Oxide
  Introducing the NOx 3,2,1 series by Axioma Health, a division of AOR: a new family of highly innovative products.
  
  The NOx line of products has undergone a pilot launch to ensure full customer training and support so that NOx distributors are fully equipped with the necessary knowledge in order to help consumers make the best product choices. The Axioma line of products are based on cutting edge and patented NOx 3,2,1 technology. The latest research has shown that Nitric Oxide (NO) has wide ranging positive effects throughout the body, and has also revealed a previously unknown pathway, the NOx 3,2,1 pathway, to increase NO levels in the body. The key to stimulating this revolutionary pathway are nitrates, which are nutrients commonly found in healthy foods like spinach and beetroot.
  
  Axioma, by AOR, will be the first to take advantage of the health benefits of these foods by incorporating nitrates into convenient, easy to take supplements through combining nitrates with synergistic ingredients to provide products tailored to a variety of health problems including high blood pressure, stress, inflammation, and the lack of energy and physical endurance. These revolutionary products will represent the latest research and will provide superior benefits.
  
  What is Nitric Oxide (NO)?
  Nitric Oxide is a simple molecule which exists as a gas but is extremely soluble in various bodily fluids like plasma, urine, extracellular fluid, gastric juice etc. and acts on virtually all cells in the body.
  
  NO is considered as a signaling molecule which means that it helps communication between cells as well as maintaining proper cellular functions. Nitric oxide also has many health benefits.
  
  What health benefits does Nitric Oxide provide?
  
• Powerful antioxidant
  
• Helps to widen blood vessels and lower blood pressure
  
• Helps prevent the formation of arterial plaque
  
• Protects the stomach lining and reduces stomach ulcers
  
• Inhibits growth of various bacteria associated with cystic fibrosis, food poisoning, ulcers and urinary tract infections
  
• Reduces the risk of blood clots, heart attacks and stroke
  
• Beneficial for conditions where oxygen is limited e.g. sickle cell disease, asthma, emphysema, high altitude training, upper respiratory chest infections
  
• Improves sports endurance
  
• Helps reduce stress
  
  Increased Need for CoQ10
  Our bodies actually product CoQ10, but as we age especially after the age 40 its production begins to decline to such a level that by the time we are in our sixties our CoQ10 levels are only about 10% of what they were when we were in our thirties. Supplementing with a good quality coenzyme Q10 can help to replenish this shortfall and produce significant benefits for our health, at a time in people's lives when they can need it most. Some studies have shown that as many as 75% of people are deficient in coenzyme Q10.
  
  However, aging is not the only reason people can need to take a CoQ10 supplement. Exposure to toxins and pollutants result in severe oxidative stress from free radicals which deplete coenzyme Q10 and create a great need for more. Illnesses that put stress on the immune system will also deplete your coenzyme Q10 resources as it enhances tissue oxygenation.
  
  CoQ10 and Energy
  When people take ubiquinone or ubiquinol CoQ10 they will usually notice a substantial increase in energy, both mental and physical. As you read above, Coenzyme Q10 is needed by every muscle in the body. Muscles use a type of energy called ATP; it's what each individual muscle cell uses to perform the contractions that result in any type of movement, whether its simply the diaphragm making the lungs inhale, or whether it's running a marathon. CoQ10 is needed to make ATP; without enough, the muscles will fatigue sooner and to a greater degree. Many athletes take CoQ10 supplements, especially the ubiquinol form, to enhance their ATP production. Naturopathic doctors often recommend their patients with Fibromyalgia, (who have chronic muscle weakness) take CoQ10 for this same reason.
  
  Anti-Aging
  It has anti-aging properties because as an antioxidant it protects the body against environmental pollutants other substances that and lead to aging. The free radical theory of aging is generally accepted as one of the major external causes of the aging process. With CoQ10's ability to stabilize free radicals, it can make a dramatic difference in reducing the DNA damage free radicals cause that can lead to the premature aging of tissues and the individual cells of which they are made. In addition, Coenzyme Q10 helps to improve circulation, which improves the flow of nutrients and oxygen to tissues, thus keeping them healthier longer.
  
  High Cholesterol and Blood Pressure
  High Cholesterol is one of the major risk factors for heart attacks and stroke. The "bad" cholesterol is harmful because it is far more prone to oxidative damage from free radicals than the "good" HDL cholesterol. Once oxidized, LDL cholesterol then damages arteries, causing lesions to form, eventually causing the arterial blockages that can lead to a heart attack or stroke. CoQ10 can prevent this. As a fat soluble antioxidant, CoQ10 ubiquinol/ubiquinone can protect the bad LDL cholesterol from free radicals, as it too is a fat. Water soluble antioxidants such as vitamin C or selenium are unable to do this to the same extent, which makes CoQ10 the ideal nutritional supplement.
  
  High Blood Pressure is sometimes called a "silent killer" as it often goes unnoticed until a major cardiac event. It can occur for a variety of different reasons, including high viscosity of the blood, narrowing of the arteries, and weak heart muscle. CoQ10 can help support healthy blood pressure by addressing each of these concerns. It helps the blood to be less viscous, thus making flow through arteries and veins with less force being exerted on blood vessel walls. By reducing the oxidation of cholesterol, CoQ10 reduces the progress of the narrowing of the arteries. In addition, as the most important muscle in the body, the heart requires Q10 more than any other. The heart is always pumping and needs a steady supply of ubiquinone / ubiquinol to continue its thousands of beats per day. Since CoQ10 is the spark plug for all muscular contractions, it is crucial for the heart to pump blood effectively. Without enough CoQ10, the beating of the heart can be erratic or even causing palpitations, causing blood pressure to rise. The preferred form in treating high blood pressure is the ubiquinol form; it has been clinically proven to reduce high blood pressure quicker and more effectively than standard ubiquinol.
  
  How is NO generated in the body?
  
  There are two ways that NO is produced in our body.
  
  1. Arginine Pathway:NO can be produced from the amino acid L-Arginine by enzymes called nitric oxide synthases.
  The problem is that high doses of L-Arginine and plenty of oxygen and energy is needed otherwise this conversion becomes inefficient. This is especially true during exercise, when oxygen is limited. Until recently this was the only identified mechanism to produce NO in the human body.
  
  2. NOx 3,2,1 Pathway:NO can be made from components found in certain vegetables called nitrates that get converted quickly into NO in the stomach. This action is much faster and does not require enzymes. Also, only small quantities of nitrates are required and most importantly, this process takes place very effectively under high oxygen conditions but also when low oxygen levels are present. This offers an additional source of NO and can complement or supersede the L-Arginine pathway.
  
  How and where does NO work?
  NO acts on virtually all cells of the body. Unfortunately, NO is not stable and cannot be put in a supplement. The most effective supplement for increasing NO levels is the NOx 3,2,1 pathway. Nitrates act as a reservoir for NO generation. Recent research has shown that consumption of certain vegetables can increase blood levels of NO rapidly and many of the above benefits become apparent when high levels of NO are achieved.
  
  Benefits for Blood Pressure, Ulcers and Exercise Endurance
  The latest research reports that when humans consume a plate of spinach, kale, or beet root juice their blood pressure drops remarkably. They attributed this effect to nitrates being converted into NO. Additional research also showed that patients given potassium nitrate showed high blood levels of NO in their blood. This led to protective effects on the stomach lining due and inhibition of the bacterium H. pylori that is now linked to stomach ulcers.
  
  Two recent studies have shown that consumption of high levels of nitrates results in high blood levels of NO and that cyclists performing strenuous exercise were able to reduce their oxygen requirements by around 20%. This is quite staggering! Research in cyclists suggests that generation of NO via consumption of nitrates improves oxygen levels and helps to reduce lactate levels. This discovery offers significant advantages to any serious athlete. Besides applications in sports, NO could also play an important role where oxygen levels are seriously reduced e.g. people living in high altitudes, or cases where not enough blood and oxygen is being delivered to tissues.
  
  Are there any toxicity concerns?
  Nitrates and their chemically reduced products have been consumed for thousands of years. For the last fifty years nitrates have been the subject of serious propaganda and regulatory restrictions. Various researchers suggest that nitrates are probably responsible for the health benefits associated with various fruits and vegetables and the so called Mediterranean Diet. In addition various vegetables are rich sources of nitrates, and the consumption of a plate of salad or a glass of beetroot juice offers many times the nitrate levels that the regulatory bodies have set as an upper limit.
