RC-NOS
Enhanced Nitric Oxide Support*
What is RC-NOS?RC-NOS, otherwise known as Rutaecarpine is a quinazolinocarboline alkaloid isolated from a well known and long used Chinese herb, Wu-Chu-Yu. It is the unripe fruit of Evodia rutaecarpa. Evodia\'s main constituents include evodine, evodiamine, dehydroevodiamine and Rutaecarpine. Rutaecarpine has traditionally been used to support diuresis, vasorelaxant properties as well as cognitive effects.* A recent study (Sheu et al, 1999) reports that Rutaecarpine may support the output of Nitric Oxide, particularly from endothelial cells. This is of particular interest to those looking to promote muscular performance.*
How Does It Work?RC-NOS appear to assist in the activation of the endothelial Ca2+-NO-cGMP cascade.This cascade leads to an influx of intracellular Ca2+, and a subsequent reduction in smooth muscle tone, the primary mechanism for natural hypotensive and vasorelaxant actions.*
Application and Serving SizeRC-NOS is appropriate for those seeking support in Nitric Oxide output. The reported benefits from this output lend itself to promoting healthy muscle gain.* RC-NOS should be taken in single servings of 25-50 mg, 45 minutes prior to workouts. For maximum benefit, a serving of 25 mg three times daily may be taken.
