Real Stories from Our Customers

Nitrates: The Best Path to Nitric Oxide Support
Backed by peer-reviewed research, Berkeley Life’s nitrate-based formulation offers a clinically supported, reliable alternative to arginine and citrulline supplements by bypassing the declining nitric oxide synthase (NOS) pathway. Using the oral microbiome to convert dietary nitrates—sourced from vegetables like beetroot and supplemented with potassium nitrate—into nitric oxide, it provides consistent support for cardiovascular health, hormone balance, cognitive function, and overall wellness across all ages.
Nitric Oxide Decreases Naturally as We Age
Nitric Oxide production rapidly declines after age 40, and continues to decline. However, dietary nitrates found in foods like beets and leafy greens, and in supplements like Berkeley Life, can help optimize Nitric Oxide production as we age.

How Can Nitric Oxide Help
Sexual Health
Nitric Oxide supports vasodilation in the body, opening pathways for optimal blood flow and circulation – a
critical functionality for adequate sexual function. In men, Nitric Oxide helps to increase blood flow to the
penis, which is essential for achieving and maintaining an erection. In women, Nitric Oxide helps to increase
blood flow to the clitoris and vagina, which is essential for sexual arousal and orgasm. Nitric Oxide also plays a
critical role as a signaling molecule in the brain, assisting in the modulation of hormone activity.
- – 78% of women reported increased desire
- – 83% of women reported more satisfaction with orgasm
- – 83% of women reported reduced discomfort
- – 50% of men 45+ see ED improvement

Gut Health
Nitric oxide plays a crucial role in maintaining a healthy gut by promoting the nitrate to nitrite to nitric oxide
pathway. Dysbiosis, or disruption of the intestinal microbial ecosystem, can have a significant impact on
physical and mental health due to the gut-brain connection. A nitrate-rich diet can help prevent dysbiosis,
promote gastrointestinal health, and maintain homeostasis by supporting the gut-brain axis. Additionally,
nitrates and their metabolites are linked to healthy oral, gut, and intestinal microbiota, and may also modulate
inflammatory and immune pathways.

Heart Health
Age, lack of exercise, and diet can lead to buildup in our macro and microvasculature, narrowing the
pathways blood takes to circulate through the body. Nitric Oxide plays a crucial role in vasodilation –
widening these pathways to improve blood, oxygen, and nutrient flow while reducing the strain on the heart.
Dietary nitrates, found in leafy greens, beetroot, or supplements like Berkeley Life, support your body’s ability
to produce Nitric Oxide throughout your life.
- – 10% Decrease In Blood Pressure in 90 Days
- – 28% Increase In Circulation in 90 Days
- – Up to 20% Reduction in Inflammatory Blood Markers
- – Sustain N.O. Levels for 24 Hours

How Nitric Oxide Supports Whole-Body Health
In the late 1990s, Nobel-Prize-award-winning research revealed that Nitric Oxide acts as a critical signaling
molecule in the cardiovascular system. This research was only the beginning of a waterfall of research on the
importance of nitrates and Nitric Oxide on total-body health.
From the tops of our heads to the tips of our toes, blood flow is the key to oxygen and nutrient delivery
throughout the body. That’s why restoring and maintaining adequate Nitric Oxide levels in the body is critical.
Without healthy blood flow, our systems and tissues suffer and lose function — putting the body at risk for a
myriad of health problems.
What is Nitric Oxide?
Our bodies make Nitric Oxide naturally in adequate levels when we are young. As we age, we produce less of
it — and over time, the blood vessels involved in naturally producing Nitric Oxide become less efficient due to
free radical damage, inactivity, and poor diet. At the same time, deterioration of veins and arteries results in
overall poor circulation — leading to a myriad of health issues.
Adequate Nitric Oxide levels are key to healthy vasodilation (relaxing of blood vessel walls), blood flow, and
oxygen delivery. Nitric Oxide is also closely linked to supporting normal, healthy blood pressure levels and
overall cardiovascular health — as well as energy levels, cognitive health, hormonal health, gut health, sexual
health, and more.
What are Dietary Nitrates?
Dietary nitrates such as beet root and leafy greens are used by our bodies to create Nitric Oxide. As we age and our naturally produced Nitric Oxide levels drop, consuming dietary nitrates gives our bodies what they need to continue producing Nitric Oxide. Dietary nitrates in food or supplementation are converted into nitrite in the mouth, and — once swallowed in the saliva — used to make Nitric Oxide as needed in the body. Two elements need to be present for this pathway to function: adequate amounts of the necessary oral bacteria and a consistent source of dietary nitrates.
Although Nitric Oxide levels can be improved through a nitrate-rich diet, modern eating habits and variable nutrient density of vegetables make a simple supplementation program like Berkeley Life’s an easier and more dependable solution
Frequently asked questions:
Can I take Berkeley Life with other medications?
Berkeley Life is safe, well-tolerated, and has no counter-indications for medications. As always, work with your provider to determine the appropriate combination of medicine and supplementation for you.
What will I feel while using Berkeley Life?
Many users report feeling an increase of energy and focus after taking their first dose. More significant symptom improvement will be felt after weeks of continuous use – including sustained energy, healthy blood pressure, supported brain function, and healthy immune response.
How long do I need to take Berkeley Life before I see results?
Like all supplements, everyone will feel a difference at different speeds. We have some patients who notice a difference right away, and some see benefits after using the product for about a month. However, you can validate that the product is working by using our test strip before and 90 minutes after you supplement.
Is Berkeley Life safe for someone with oxalate sensitivities?
Yes, Berkeley Life is generally safe for individuals with oxalate sensitivities. While oxalate sensitivity affects a small percentage of people (~2%) due to genetic factors limiting their ability to break down oxalates, many can still tolerate small amounts of oxalates with good digestion practices, such as chewing thoroughly, staying hydrated, and possibly using digestive enzyme supplements.
The oxalate content in Berkeley Life’s formula is extremely low—only 0.7 mg per dose, which is less than the oxalates found in a single leaf of spinach. While beetroot is a key ingredient in Berkeley Life for its dietary nitrate content, the amount is not enough to significantly affect even those with oxalate sensitivities
For those managing oxalate sensitivity or kidney stones, it’s important to focus on digestive health and reduce processed foods, sugars, and alcohol rather than strictly eliminating foods or supplements like Berkeley Life. Berkeley Life’s Nitric Oxide Test Strips can also be used to monitor nitric oxide levels and ensure efficacy.
