Nitrosamine formation during digestion
Methylated arginine metabolites that are produced from protein degradation
An excess of RNS (nitrosative stress) or reactive oxygen species (ROS) can impair vascular function. The reduction in NO bioavailability caused by ADMA accumulation is a key aspect of this dysfunction.
Elevated ADMA not only reduces NO production but can also induce the formation of more harmful oxidative and nitrosative species.

Plant materials: Use parts rich in vitamin C
Instructions:
Chop or bruise the plant material to help release the vitamin C.
Pour boiling water over the material.
Cover and let it steep for 10-15 minutes.
Strain out the plant matter before drinking.
