Nitric oxide and heart disease

What is nitric oxide and how does it work?

Some people think it's the gas that makes us laugh at the dentist office. Some think it's the fuel racecar drivers use to speed up their cars. But it's neither. Nitric oxide is a molecule that our body produces to help its 50 trillion cells communicate with each other by transmitting signals throughout the entire body.

I found about Nitric oxide and heart disease after watching a video post in HA, HUK. This is new to me and have learned a lot since watching the video. It appears green leafy veg can help a lot in reducing heart problems. Goggling Nitric Oxide can give more information.
