In this clip, you’ll hear what John learned from Louis Ignarro, who had a key role in the discovery of nitric oxide. When you breathe in through your nasal passage, nitric oxide is formed, keeping viruses at bay.
Nasal breathing will mean the difference between life or death for some people with the novel coronavirus. Nitric oxide opens up airways so you can breathe easier; it opens up arteries so blood gets pumped easier, and in turn you get greater oxygenation of the blood. Press play to learn all about it in this week’s mini-sode!

“If there's a good laugh, then you get tears to come down [from] your eyes. You feel great and it's because of the release of chemicals, such as beta-endorphins. And then it activates other blood chemicals in the cardiovascular system [like]: nitric oxide. And this kind of tag team, if you will, appear to really lead to the beneficial effects on the blood vessels.” – Michael Miller is a best-selling author, professor of cardiovascular medicine at the University of Maryland School of Medicine, and an innovative researcher in heart disease prevention.
Taking care of our cardiovascular health should be, and has always been, a top priority. Some of the highlights of today’s conversation with Dr. Miller are:
How losing his father at a young age impacted his life and career path What gets him into the ‘zone’ His studies and research on how we process fats (e.g. coconut oil, omega 3 fats) Some of his earlier findings on how laughter and emotional health impact the heart’s healthOur physiological response to laughter Why it’s better to eat the food than the supplement Which foods have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant qualities How to manage undue stress Tips to maintain good cardiovascular health through nutrition, activity, and emotional healthBe sure to follow Michael on Twitter and LinkedIn and learn more about his work on his website here.

While researching for his book, James found out that the human skull has drastically changed over time.

James did an experiment documented in his book, where he plugged both of his nostrils for 10 days. As he started only breathing through his mouth, his health started declining drastically. Listen to today’s minisode to learn how and why mouth breathing affected James’ health during his experiment, so you can apply these lessons to your daily life...
