Introduction
Genesis Sports Nutrition, a relatively young UK supplement company, are making a lot of noise about their latest supplement NOFX. NOFX is one of many Nitric Oxide based supplements currently being hyped as the latest and greatest supplement on the internet. Why? Well here are GSN's word on NOFX and Nitric Oxide.
Nitric Oxide
Nitric Oxide (NO) is a very important signaling molecule that acts in many tissues to regulate a wide range of physiological processes. It was first discovered several years ago by a group that was attempting to identify the agent responsible for promoting blood vessel relaxation and the regulation of vascular tone. This particular agent was named endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF), and was initially assumed to be a protein like most of the other signaling factors previously discovered. The discovery that EDRF was in fact nitric oxide, a small gaseous molecule, has led to many publications over the years including our NOS TM discovery. Our scientist found that besides promoting blood vessel relaxation and the regulation of vascular tone, NO plays a key role in many biological processes including immune defense, neurotransmission, and the regulation of cell death (apoptosis). Since NO is such a very small molecule, it is able to diffuse rapidly across cell membrane and depending on the conditions, is able to travel several hundred microns. Nitric oxide is produced by enzymes known as nitric oxide synthases (NOS).
NOFX stimulates the production of NO (nitric oxide) and sustains these levels through out the day. These sustained levels of NO delivers muscle-enhancing benefits all day long, resulting in faster muscle gains, decreases in body fat, increases in vigor and over all well being. In addition, NOFX supplies blood surges to all parts of the body, which creates what we call the continuous muscle pump. The continuous muscle pump leads too faster recovery, better workouts and increases in over all athletic performance.
