123: Upgrade Bloodflow with N-O f. Cathy Eason

In this episode of the Health Upgrade podcast, we welcome Cathy Eason, Chief Science Officer at Berkeley Life, for a deep dive into the crucial role of blood flow and nitric oxide in overall health. Cathy shares her journey from bodywork and exercise physiology to functional nutrition, emphasizing how optimal blood flow supports everything from digestion and metabolic health to cardiovascular function. We discuss the science behind nitric oxide production, the impact of dietary nitrates from leafy greens, and the importance of the oral microbiome for maximizing these benefits.

The conversation explores practical tools, such as salivary test strips for monitoring nitric oxide levels, strategies for enhancing vascular health, and the relationship between diet, breathing, movement, and blood flow. Additionally, we analyze real-life scenarios, ranging from menopause and migraines to post-exercise recovery, and highlight small lifestyle adjustments that can make a significant difference.

If you or someone you know could benefit from better blood flow, improved energy, or reduced reliance on supplements, don’t miss this episode!
