Is Nitric Oxide the New Anti-Aging Ingredient?

 
 
 
Dr. Nathan Bryan, PhD with Pneuma Nitric Oxide, a pioneer behind scientifically proven nitric oxide-based technologies for use in skin care and cosmetics who has been involved in nitric oxide research for decades joins eHealth Radio and the Skin Care and Health News Channels.
 
Listen to interview with host Eric Michaels & guest Dr. Nathan Bryan discuss the following:
You are a part of a company called Pneuma Nitric Oxide, LLC, tell us about the company and what your contribution is?
Can you share some of your research findings and accomplishments?
What are the benefits and why is Nitric Oxide so important?
Is nitric oxide the new ingredient that will effectively combat aging?
You are the first to introduce Nitric Oxide into the beauty arena, what makes Pneuma Nitric Oxide Serum so unique and how is it used?
Tip: Pneuma Nitric Oxide does not replace any product in a skin care regime, it adds a new tool to our armamentarium of caring for our patients.
As a pioneering figure in the field of nitric oxide research, Dr. Nathan Bryan Ph.D., has teamed up with Pneuma Corp. LLC to create a category of revolutionary beauty products known as Nitriceuticals. Dr. Bryan’s research has led to the development of Nitric Oxide based skincare and wellness products that promote beauty and anti-aging on the molecular level. He holds more than a dozen issued U.S. and international patents for his breakthrough techniques in human physiology and disease management.
Dr. Nathan Bryan, Ph.D. earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry from the University of Texas at Austin. He went on to receive his doctoral degree from the Louisiana State University School of Medicine. Devoted to research, Dr. Bryan pursued his post-doctoral training as a Kirschstein Fellow at Boston University School of Medicine and held a faculty position at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston. He was the first to describe nitrite and nitrate as indispensable nutrients required for optimal cardiovascular health and has since made many seminal discoveries. He is an international leader in molecular medicine and nitric oxide biochemistry.
According to Dr. Bryan, “Nitric oxide is considered one of the most important molecules produced in the human body. I feel I have an obligation and a responsibility to educate the masses on the importance of nitric oxide so they can reap the benefits of nitric oxide product technology. I’m passionate about bringing validated science of nitric oxide to the beauty world because it will truly transform the beauty industry and the people who use it.
As a highly sought-after doctor, researcher, and speaker, Dr. Nathan Bryan Ph.D. has written numerous research papers and books. He travels the globe to educate and create awareness regarding the essential nature of nitric oxide production in the body and what happens when one becomes deficient as we age. One of those books, Functional Nitric Oxide Nutrition, was designed to help the everyday person understand this “miracle molecule” and how it affects everything from cardiovascular health and the immune system to the aging process of the skin.
We know that advanced aging is due to poor circulation to the skin and decreased oxygen and nutrient delivery. This causes loss of hydration, oxidative stress which leads to fine lines and wrinkles, poor complexion and inflammation. By using nitric oxide-based skin care products, we open up the circulation and allow oxygen and nutrients to be delivered to the cells of our skin. This improves cellular function, enhances cellular regeneration and improves the look and function of our skin. If you give the body what it needs, it heals itself. Nitric oxide is what’s been missing in the beauty world. I’m excited to bring this product technology to the masses,” says Dr. Bryan.

 Dr. Nathan Bryan's research led him to this question: how can we harness the miraculous benefits of Nitric Oxide for use in skin care? Thus, the relationship between Dr. Nathan Bryan Ph.D. and Pneuma Corp. LLC was born.
Utilizing Dr. Bryan's pioneering research, Pneuma Corp LLC has focused on connecting both beauty and wellness with nitric oxide-based technology that promotes beauty and anti-aging on the molecular level. With vigor and drive, Dr. Nathan Bryan Ph.D. continues to pioneer the way for the science and the beauty world to merge, delivering practical insight and power-packed beauty products that are sure to change lives for decades to come.

Dr. Charles Brenner on the Surprising Science of Aging

 
 
Dr. Charles Brenner, the Roy J. Carver Chair of Biochemistry at the University of Iowa and Chief Scientific Advisor at ChromaDex, the makers of TRU NIAGEN joins eHealth Radio & the Health News Channel to discuss surprising science behind aging.
 
Listen to interview with host Eric Michaels and guest Dr. Charles Brenner discuss the following:
What is NAD? What has your research revealed about it?
What is the relationship between NAD and aging?
What is NIAGEN, and how is it related to NAD?
Does increasing NAD levels have any other benefits, besides anti-aging? Are these potential benefits being studied in clinical studies?  
 
Dr. Charles Brenner Dr. Charles Brenner is the Roy J. Carver Chair and Head of Biochemistry at the University of Iowa, as well as a founding co-director of the University of Iowa Obesity Initiative. In 2004, Brenner, then a faculty member at Dartmouth College, discovered nicotinamide riboside (NR) to be a vital precursor of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), which is made available by nicotinamide riboside kinases (Nrks) that are conserved between yeast and humans. In 2007, Dr. Brenner's lab discovered a second pathway by which NR is converted to NAD+ and showed that NR can extend the lifespan of yeast cells by virtue of elevating NAD+ levels and increasing the activity of the NAD+ dependent Sir2 enzyme.
In the past decade, Dr. Brenner has made multiple seminal contributions to NAD+ metabolism, which include engineering a yeast strain to convert inexpensive NAD+ precursor vitamins into NR, solving the crystal structure of human Nrk1, developing the methods for quantitative NAD+ metabolomics, and demonstrating the activity of oral NR in animal models of fatty liver disease, obesity, type 2 diabetes, diabetic and chemotherapeutic neuropathy, heart failure, and central brain injury. Dr. Brenner also led the first clinical trial of NR, which established safe oral availability in humans. He is currently focusing on the maternal and neonatal effects of oral NR and translating animal discoveries into evidence-based safe, human clinical practice for human conditions of metabolic stress.
