Cardio vs weight training: Which is healthier? Which burns fat more efficient? (Part 7)

In this post, I would like to finish off a bit more about cGMP as well as muscle gain. I will discuss briefly about how cGMP can affect potency and this concerns men. Yes, for those male readers out there, you might be interested about this discussion. Especially for those who RELY on ED drugs, this one is specially for you guys.

cGMP might be regarded as a sex stimulating cellular factor. In fact, the drug Viagra works on the principle of inhibiting cellular cGMP reuptake. cGMP, with its insulin-related actions, promotes the production of nitric oxide. Nitric oxide, a metabolite of the amino acid arginine, is a natural compound that regulates blood pressure and circulation. As a vasodilator, NO is critical for male erection as well as female sexual arousal. I know what you guys must be thinking now after reading this fact. And yes, you will NOT be able to quality/full erection or increase sexual performance with gulping or loading your body system with loads of nitric oxide or arginine supplements. There are tons of other factors and hormonal pathways involved to enable a healthy reproductive system, which concerns ED symptoms.

NO and GMP are responsible for the unrestricted flow of of blood into the erectile chamber of the penis. It is cGMP that helps induce a high level of local NO production. Sexual arousal is a unique event in which both cGMP and cAMP are activated simultaneuosly. While cGMP dilates the blood vessels to ensure proper blood flow, cAMP constricts blood vessels to trap the blood in the erectile chamber, which helps maintain a full, steady stiff erection.

Overall, cGMP is critical for potency and virility. Men and women who chronically undereat may be able to live longer but may risk living life with a diminished libido. Chronic domination of any cellular factor can be detrimental to your health. Chronic elevation of cellular cGMP, caused by eating too many meals or by frequently ingesting carbohydrates during the day, will chronically inhibit cAMP and counteract its biological benefits.

Chronic elevation of cGMP upsets the body's biological balance, more material is deposited than removed. The inability to detoxify compromises liver functions, further accelerating the accumulation of metabolic waste toxins and fat in body tissue. This adverse process often results in weight gain, sluggish metabolism, insulin resistance, lack or energy, general fatigue and accelerated aging.

Now, can you imagine our body's metabolism is quite similiar to car's engine pistons? The constant shift between antagonistic cellular forces activates and deactivates body chemistry that moves the metabolic pistons up and down, like those of a combustion engine in motion. The cycling between cellular factors cAMP and cGMP is the principal factor that moves and drives the metabolic wheels that generate energy.

cAMP and cGMP polarize the direction in which cellular actions occur. This polarization is crucial for the integrity of all evolving metabolic actions, from burning matter into energy, to depositing material and replenishing energy.

Like a combustion engine based on the principle of high and low pressure, your biological engine is based on opposing forces that move your metabolic pistons. When one piston is up, the other piston is down. Cycling between these cellular forces, such as undereating and overeating, puts the spin on your charging wheels.

Any action you perform chronically may offset your biological engine. Chronic activation of one cellular factor chronically deactivates its opposing factor. As noted, most current diets chronically deactivate cAMP while chronically inducing cGMP. cAMP stimulates growth potential while inducing breakdown of fat for energy.

Cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP are cellular factors that, while being cycled, create a combustion-like thrust impact that generates energy and burns fat while facilitating repair, growth, and rejuvenation. In next post, I will spend some time to write about muscle gain. Stay tuned.
