3 Unique Ways to Increase Nitric Oxide Production

Improve BLOOD PRESSURE

Adam J Story, DC

Discover three simple, science-based techniques that boost nitric oxide, relax your blood vessels, and may naturally support healthier blood pressure and cardiovascular function over time.

Synopsis

In this video, chiropractor Adam J. Story, DC explains how increasing your body’s natural nitric oxide production can help dilate blood vessels, relax the vascular system, and support healthier blood pressure. He briefly reviews how nitric oxide is produced by the endothelial lining of blood vessels and why this production often declines with age or poor health. Then he demonstrates three unique, non‑pharmaceutical approaches you can use at home: nasal breathing exercises to stimulate nitric oxide production in the nasal passages, a specific weighted C128 tuning fork routine applied to seven parasympathetic “relaxation” points on the body, and a humming technique (also called “bumble bee breath”) that vibrates the nasal passages and further activates the parasympathetic nervous system. Throughout the video he emphasizes relaxation of the autonomic nervous system, especially the parasympathetic “rest and digest” branch, as a key pathway for lowering vascular resistance and improving cardiovascular health, and he briefly mentions nitric‑oxide‑supporting supplements and foods as additional tools.

Summary

Nitric oxide is a gas produced by endothelial cells lining your blood vessels that helps those vessels dilate, stay pliable, and support healthy blood pressure and cardiovascular function.
With age and declining health, your natural nitric oxide production tends to decrease, which makes it especially important to use lifestyle strategies that stimulate nitric oxide as you get older.
Deep nasal breathing through one or both nostrils, after cleaning the nasal passages if needed, can stimulate sensory nerves in the nose that signal the brain to increase nitric oxide production and promote a calmer nervous system.
Alternating nostril breathing (closing one nostril at a time) for several minutes one to three times daily can enhance relaxation, increase nitric oxide, and may contribute to lower blood pressure over time.
A weighted C128 tuning fork applied in sequence to seven key parasympathetic points (top of the head, forehead “third eye,” mastoid bones, TMJ joints, upper sternum/manubrium, lower sternum/xiphoid, and sacrum) creates soothing vibrations that help activate the parasympathetic nervous system and relax blood vessels.
This tuning fork protocol is performed by gently striking the fork on the palm, placing it on each bony landmark for three vibration cycles, and always beginning on the left side when working around the head and jaw.
Humming (the “bumble bee breath”) through the nose both drives air through the nasal passages and vibrates them, further stimulating nitric oxide production and parasympathetic activity, and can be intensified by closing the eyes and gently blocking the ears to heighten internal vibration.
The video concludes by noting that many other strategies, including certain supplements and foods, can also support nitric oxide levels and that viewers should consult their own doctors to determine whether nitric‑oxide‑supporting products such as “Nitric Oxide Flow” are appropriate for them.

Transcript Summary

Why nitric oxide matters for blood pressure

Adam J. Story, DC opens by asking viewers if they would like to naturally lower blood pressure and improve cardiovascular health with three unique strategies that all work by boosting nitric oxide production. He explains that nitric oxide is a natural gas produced by the endothelial (inner) lining of blood vessels, that it has many benefits, and that the main one he focuses on in this video is vasodilation, which lets blood vessels expand and become more flexible so blood pressure can decrease. He notes that nitric oxide production declines with age and poorer health, making it important to support this pathway as we get older.

Technique 1: Nasal breathing to stimulate nitric oxide

The first method is nasal breathing, where you close your mouth and inhale as deeply as possible through your nose, rather than breathing in and out through your mouth. He describes how the inner lining of the nasal passages contains sensory nerves connected to the brain that help stimulate nitric oxide production when you breathe through your nose. Before doing these exercises, he recommends making sure your nose is clear, and suggests using a neti pot or similar nasal cleansing device, referencing a separate video on how to do that. He then demonstrates basic deep nasal breathing through both nostrils and explains that many people benefit from alternate‑nostril breathing, where you gently close one nostril with a finger, inhale through the other, then exhale through the mouth and switch sides. Doing this at least once per day, and ideally for about five minutes three times daily, can produce a greater sense of calm, increase nitric oxide production, and, over time, help lower blood pressure.

Technique 2: C128 tuning fork and parasympathetic activation

The second method uses a weighted C128 tuning fork made from a special metal, which he says you can purchase online. He demonstrates how to hold the tuning fork securely but not too tightly, strike it on the palm of the hand to generate a strong vibration, and then place it on specific points on the body while the vibration fades. The seven application points are the top of the head, the middle of the forehead (the so‑called “third eye”), the mastoid process bones behind each ear, the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) in front of each ear, the manubrium at the top of the sternum, the xiphoid at the bottom of the sternum, and the sacrum below the belt line. He explains how these points are associated with the parasympathetic nervous system, which is part of the autonomic nervous system responsible for relaxation, and that activating these points with vibration helps relax and dilate blood vessels while reducing sympathetic “fight or flight” dominance.

How to find and use each tuning fork point

He walks through each point in more detail, starting at the top of the head where you place the vibrating fork at the center and hold it there until the vibration stops, repeating for three cycles. Next, he moves to the middle of the forehead, again placing the fork at the “third eye” for three cycles. For the mastoid process, he instructs viewers to find the bony area behind the ear where eyeglasses typically rest and place the fork on the bone—never on soft tissue—doing three cycles on the left side first and then on the right. To locate the TMJ point, he has viewers find the tragus in front of the ear, place three fingers along the cheekbone, and identify the spot where the jawbone moves as they open and close the mouth, then position the tuning fork three to five millimeters below that, again repeating three cycles starting on the left and then on the right. Finally, he shows how to place the fork at the manubrium near the notch between the collarbones, on the lower sternum over the xiphoid, and on the sacrum below the belt line, each for three cycles, noting that people may need help placing the fork on the sacrum.

Technique 3: Humming and “bumble bee breath”

The third method is humming, also called “bumble bee breath,” which he notes has been used since ancient times and involves breathing through the nose while creating a humming sound that vibrates the nasal passages. He explains that this technique combines nasal airflow with vibration, adding to the nitric oxide‑stimulating and parasympathetic‑activating effects of nasal breathing alone. Humming can be done in any key, and he encourages viewers to experiment until they find a tone that feels most natural, calming, and “in harmony,” as this will likely provide the greatest benefit for their nervous system. To intensify the effect, he suggests closing the eyes to increase awareness of nasal vibration and gently pressing the fingers against the tragus of each ear to block outside sounds, which makes the internal humming vibrations feel stronger.

Additional nitric oxide strategies and product mention

Toward the end of the video, he mentions that there are many nutritional supplements and specific foods that can further enhance nitric oxide production, and he references related videos that cover nitric‑oxide‑boosting foods in more detail. He introduces the sponsor product “Nitric Oxide Flow” from Nature’s Pure Blend, describing it as a supplement that contains nutrients designed to support the body’s natural nitric oxide production, which can help blood vessels become more pliable and relaxed so blood pressure decreases. The recommended dosage is one to two tablets per day, but he advises viewers to consult their own doctor to determine whether the product is appropriate for them. He closes by reminding viewers that the product link is available in the video description for those who want to learn more.
