Course Description:
The webinar will educate clinicians on the primary nitric oxide (NO) synthesis pathways in the body, with emphasis on the entero-salivary nitrate-reduction pathway. Practitioners will understand the many important cardiometabolic roles of NO as an important signaling molecule impacting nearly every physiological system.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the Foundational Importance of the 'Miracle Molecule’ Nitric Oxide (NO) to Oral & Systemic Dysfunction and Chronic Disease Care
- Gain clarity on the many roles of NO in the regulation of nearly every body system
- Become equipped with clinical tools to assess and address NO dysregulation
- Review the latest gold-standard clinical research on the use of supplemental dietary nitrates for improving cardiometabolic health and more
Practical Applications:
- Dietary nitrate supplementation and dietary recommendations for balancing and diversifying the oral microbiome.
- The use of dietary nitrates and nutrient cofactors for improving blood flow, enhancing delivery of oxygen and nutrients to body tissues, inflammation reduction, immune system regulation, and support for optimizing metabolic functions.
- Functional testing of NO production capacity to support patient goals for reducing oxidative stress and improving endothelial tissue function.
- Providing diet and lifestyle recommendations in accordance with credentials in support of patient success in restoring optimal NO levels.
