Regulating nitric oxide production

Which way does your doctor recommend you get your nitric oxide?
Does your doctor even know the benefits of nitric oxide for stroke?

Blood vessels relax and enable increased blood flow when the enzyme eNOS produces nitric oxide (NO) in the endothelial cells lining the vessels. The activity of eNOS varies with modifications to specific sites in the enzyme, such as S-sulfhydration, a process that is triggered by the gas hydrogen sulfide (H₂S). Altaany et al. found that S-sulfhydration of eNOS increased its activity by affecting other modifications to the enzyme. Endothelial cells from mice that could not produce H₂S also produced less NO than those from normal mice. Enhancing the S-sulfhydration of eNOS may be an effective strategy to increase blood flow in patients.
