So processed, even things like ground beef, ground turkey, ground chicken. It's processed. Whey protein. Yeah, it's all processed. But the problem is, and there's this term you hear all the time, non-perishable food items. That's an oxymoron. If it's non-perishable, it's not food, right? Food is designed to have a certain shelf life.

And so if you've got food that can sit on the shelf and not spoil... for weeks months years that's not food and the reason it's not food is because it's ultra processed and there's preservatives in there and things that won't allow it to rot or spoil and i think we've all seen this people who bought you know big mac and fries from mcdonald's that's been sitting outside

It hasn't broken down. I mean, that is not food. And why is it not food? Because it's ultra-processed. So I think, again, the ultra-processed foods provide very little nutrient value. So there's no benefit. And what's the risk? The risk is all those preservatives that you're consuming are now disrupting normal cell biology.

So again, in the spectrum of risk benefit, ultra processed foods, again, I'd probably give it, you know, probably an E or an F. Okay.

Nitric oxide affects many different things. It turns genes on. I was here this week at a nitric oxide scientific meeting. The top probably 140 scientists in the world come together every two years and we discuss the latest in nitric oxide chemistry, biology, and the clinical applications of that.
