Is Coffee a Superfood? Part 1

Dr. Steven Helschien does a deep-dive on the benefits of coffee. Once reviled as bad for the heart, new research is vindicating coffee, and even showing that caffeine delivers cardiac benefits without increasing the risk of hypertension or cardiac arrhythmias. How many servings are optimal? What other substances in coffee are beneficial? What about claims that the acrylamides in coffee can cause cancer? Is it important for coffee to be organic? Coffee also appears to counteract depression and protect the brain from neurodegenerative diseases. It’s also helpful for the liver, combatting fatty liver, gallstones, and liver cancer.

The science of you, working better.

There’s a crucial molecule in your body that helps control your circulation, your energy, your stamina, your heart—even your sharpness of mind. It’s called nitric oxide.

After age 40, your body makes less and less of it. That means less blood flow. Less stamina. Less of you. But now there’s N1O1 nitric oxide lozenges, developed by Dr. Nathan Bryan — the world’s leading nitric oxide researcher.

I take them twice a day, especially before my workouts, to support healthy circulation and boost oxygen delivery to my muscles and brain. 

N1O1 is designed to naturally restore your body’s nitric oxide levels, and goes to work in minutes, releasing nitric oxide directly into your bloodstream, and helping you feel the way you’re supposed to feel.

More energy. Better blood flow. Sharper focus. Day after day.
