Just more info on someone with an opinion on fighting cancer… there’s so much out there, you just have to take it all with a grain of salt. It is Quackery or is there really something to it?
Nitric oxide (NO) is a colorless, odorless gas that is an important signaling molecule in the body of mammals, including humans, but is toxic at high doses. The nitric oxide molecule is a free radical, which is relevant to understanding its high reactivity.
Nitric oxide is important in the chemical industry and is also a toxic air pollutant produced by cigarette smoke, automobile engines, and power plants. In 1994, the respected journal Science declared nitric oxide as its “molecule of the year” for the exciting discoveries surrounding its physiological signaling roles.
Dr. Louis Ignarro has been prominent in advocating alternative medical uses including the treatment of heart disease, shock, cancer, impotence, and pulmonary hypertension. NO is now known to play a key role in many biological functions including inflammation, blood flow regulation, cell growth, smooth muscle relaxation, and preserving memory. Each year, thousands of research papers are written about the molecule.[1] Appropriate levels of NO production are important in protecting organs from damage.
Nitric oxide should not be confused with nitrous oxide (N2O), a general anaesthetic and greenhouse gas, or with nitrogen dioxide (NO2) which is another air pollutant.
