Nitric Oxide: Why We Need It and How Infrared Light Therapy Helps Make It Available
In human health, there’s a remarkable molecule called nitric oxide (NO) that plays a vital role in our well-being. It regulates blood pressure, immune response, and even neurotransmission.
However, maintaining optimal levels of NO can challenge our bodies. Numerous research studies report that near-infrared light can make nitric oxide more readily available and to help increase circulation, alleviate pain and reduce inflammation. Anodyne Therapy increases circulation, alleviates pain and reduces inflammation so nitric oxide may be the reason.
What is Nitric Oxide, and How Does it Impact Our Health?
● Nitric oxide (NO) is a molecule of nitrogen paired with oxygen that is a powerful natural vasodilator and a vital messenger in the body.
● It plays a significant role in numerous cellular responses and physiological effects, ranging from complex behavioral changes in the brain to airway relaxation, heart function, formation and dilation of blood vessels, regulation of intestinal movement, blood cell function, immune response, and nerve function.
● The release of nitric oxide in the body has an impact that can extend for hours or even longer.
● Limited capacity to produce nitric oxide is implicated in various health conditions, including heart disease, diabetes, and nerve and erectile dysfunction.
● Nitric oxide production naturally declines with age, decreasing by as much as 10% every decade.
● Impaired nitric oxide formation can lead to symptoms such as impaired vision, kidney dysfunction, peripheral arterial disease, numbness and sensory loss, peripheral nerve dysfunction, and chronic pain.
Using Infrared Light Therapy to Increase Nitric Oxide
Scientific research demonstrates the following:
- Infrared light therapy increases the availability of local nitric oxide, promoting blood flow and new blood vessel growth.
- Using ILT to increase nitric oxide facilitates circulation, alleviates inflammation, and reduces pain.
- Studies show that just 30 minutes of Anodyne® infrared light therapy can significantly boost blood circulation to nerves and tissues, improving oxygen and nutrient delivery, promoting recovery, and reducing pain and discomfort..
