Potential Nitric Oxide Side Effects

By Ben Mester


Nitric oxide is a compound that's showing up more and more in supplements nowadays. It's what's known generally as a vasodilator, which means that it dilates the veins and arteries, which permits more blood to flow across the body. What good does that do, you might ask?

There are 1 or 2 reasons this can be a good thing. First, in some studies done on hair loss, evidence has been gathered that shows that some baldness may come about due to shortage of blood flow to the scalp and hair line. Another way people use nitric oxide is during weight lifting. Greater blood flow means greater oxygen and nutritional elements to the muscles. A third use for nitric oxide is in supplements for men's sexual wellness. I'll leave it to you to figure out how that one works.

Nitric oxide comes with some potential side-effects though that you should be conscious of. Due to the fact that it widens the arteries and veins, nitric oxide may cause deadly high blood pressure,. In reality, in some extreme cases, blood pressure was so negatively influenced by nitric oxide consumption that people have died as a result.

But in less extreme cases, nitric oxide complications can include things like headaches, heart arrhythmia, irregular heart beat, and diarrhea. Heart conditions aren't something that the general public want to play around with, so if you are experiening one or more of these side-effects, you may want to consider carefully about continuing to use nitric oxide.

The level of severity of the side effects will very likely correspond to how strong of a nitric oxide supplement you take. Some, like the weight lifting supplements, are often stronger than others and the equivalent side-effects are often greater as well. The majority who use nitric oxide supplements say that it might be a good idea to drink lots of water when consuming a nitric oxide supplement. So if you're going to continue to use nitric oxide supplements, be safe and careful.
