Making Nitric Oxide

Chemistry:

2e- + C(NH2)2 + 3O2 → 2NO- + 2H2O + CO2

• 2e- 
  
  • :acids,
    
    • activated during niacin flush
    • many heating foods, spices
    • vinegar, citric acid, coffee
      
• C(NH2)2
  
  • :carbon attached to 2 amines
  • quinine from
    
    • urea
      
    • arginine
      
    • creatine
    • metformin
      
    • others
• 3O2 
  
  • :three dioxides
  • oxygen from breathing,
    
    • transported
    • Red Blood Cells
      
    • hemoglobin
    • iron bound by histidine
    • the H in SHUCA
• →
  • a controlled reaction
    
    • B1 thiamine
    • B2 riboflavin
    • B3 niacin flush
    • glutathione, cellular protection
    • calmodulin, calcium control
    • heme, histidine, (azole)
    • others
• 2NO-
  • Nitric Oxide
  • the active immune system
    • NOS - Nitric Oxide Species
      • eNOS - endothelial
      • nNOS - neruonal
      • iNOS - inducible
        
• 2H2O
  • water
  • breathed out to lose weight
    
• CO2
  • Carbon Dioxide
  • breathed out to lose weigth
    

-------------------

Bottom note:

• carbohydrates
• starch
• sugar
• fruit

have no role in the nitrogenic immune system
