PURCHASE, N.Y. (PRWEB)

In attendance at this year’s ISSN (International Society of Sports Nutrition) Annual Conference, Nutrition 21 was excited to hear the significant results of an independent study presented by researchers from the University of Arkansas studying the significant blood flow impact of Nitrosigine®. The clinical study poster entitled “The Acute Effects of Citrulline Malate and Bonded Arginine Silicate Supplementation on Vasodilation of Young Adults” was presented by lead author Jeffrey Rogers from the University of Arkansas American College of Sports Medicine. Nutrition 21 provided no support and did not participate in the design or implementation of the study.

The study compared two popular ingredients used in sports nutrition today: citrulline malate (CM ) and bonded arginine silicate (Nitrosigine®). Nitrosigine® is a leading branded ingredient used in a variety of consumer products with a legacy of continued success in the sports nutrition and pre-workout arena. Nitrosigine® is added to formulations in order to significantly increase serum arginine and nitric oxide (NO) levels, reduce markers of post-workout muscle damage and increase cognitive processing speed. CM is used for its ability to increase blood serum concentrations of arginine, resulting in NO production.

Dr. Michelle Gray, Associate Professor and the Director of the Exercise Science Research Center at the University of Arkansas, commented “Current research has yet to compare CM and Nitrosigine® in vivo using a flow-mediated dilation (FMD) technique, a validated measure of the vascular endothelium’s NO producing ability. We identified a need and designed the experiment with the purpose of determining the effectiveness of Nitrosigine® and CM compared to placebo, in up-regulating NO production in blood vessels as measured by acute changes in vasodilation.”

The double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover design study was performed, with a 7-day washout period between test visits. The subjects were 22 healthy, normotensive, and at least moderately active male (n=14) and female (n=8) young adults.

Results showed that a single dose of 1.5g of Nitrosigine® significantly increased FMD, a measurement of increased vasodilation, blood flow, and possibly nitric oxide levels, more than placebo (p<0.01) and to the same extent as 8g of CM.

Overall Clinical Results of the Study:


  • In a double-blind, placebo-controlled study, both Nitrosigine® and CM supplementation led to an equally significant increase in vasodilation and blood flow, but with a dose of CM (8g) that was 5x more than the dose of Nitrosigine (1.5g)

  • Overall, these data show that a single dose of 1.5g of Nitrosigine®:

  • Significantly increases vasodilation and blood flow, important for increases in muscle pump, as measured by FMD,in active young adults compared to placebo

  • Significantly increases FMD, a nitric oxide-related measurement, in active young adults compared to placebo

  • Significantly increases FMD, a measurement of vasodilation, blood flow, and nitric oxide production, as well as 8g of CM increases those metrics

“Nutrition 21 was excited to hear of this independent study and the positive results showing the benefits of Nitrosigine® on increasing vasodilation, a process driven by increasing nitric oxide production, and believed to enhance a number of sports performance endpoints. We are especially pleased that this study was designed to test a healthy, athletically trained population, and showed that a 1.5g dose of Nitrosigine® worked as well as 8g of Citrulline Malate, in increasing flow mediated dilation.” says James Komorowski, MS, CNS, Chief Science Office at Nutrition 21.

About Nitrosigine®: Nitrosigine® is a patented complex of bonded arginine silicate with FDA New Dietary Ingredient (NDI) notification status and has been self-affirmed Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) at the level of 1,500 mg per day for use in nutritional bars and beverages. Nitrosigine® is scientifically engineered to boost nitric oxide levels, which have been shown to be a key factor in generating greater blood flow and vasodilation in working muscles. The unique Nitrosigine® complex bonds arginine and silicate – unlocking powerful synergistic effects that offer enhanced benefits. Nitrosigine® is a safe, non-stimulant, effective ingredient that is easy to formulate into new and existing products for sports nutrition, men’s health and cardiovascular health.

Marakas continued, “Even better, Benzer offers free blister packaging, refill synchronization, and other customized medication pick-up options, as well as a host of clinical services ranging from medication therapy management and immunizations to diabetic consultation, smoking cessation support, and blood pressure screening, to name just a few.”

The new store will be led by veteran retail manager and store owner Tom Mox; and pharmacist-in-charge Terry Malone, a practicing pharmacist in central Ohio for the last 37 years.

“Both Tom and Terry share the Benzer commitment toward outstanding service with a strong emphasis on patient care and driving improvement in outcomes,” Darji explained. “Having them onboard will make all the difference in establishing a presence for the organization in Columbus that’s here today, and here to stay.”

Fractional CFO Services Company Expands Footprint in Detroit, Pittsburgh and Erie, PA Markets

Leave a comment


“We are passionate about helping entrepreneurs, in each of the markets where we operate, achieve their financial goals.”


COLUMBUS, Ohio (PRWEB)

FocusCFO, which provides fractional CFO Services to small and medium sized business, is pleased to announce it has expanded its geographic footprint in the Detroit, Pittsburgh and Erie, Pa. markets.

“We are passionate about helping entrepreneurs in each of the markets where we operate achieve their financial goals,” said Brad Martyn, FocusCFO CEO and Founder. “We have found a sweet spot with companies that are typically entrepreneur-led, with annual sales ranging from $2-$40 million. Many clients are in the $2-$6 million range when we start,” he added.

Since 2001, FocusCFO has been helping clients manage three key areas: cash flow, business risk and scalable growth, resulting in increased value in the business. They do this on a fractional basis, meaning clients get all the advantages of a full-time CFO on terms that are flexible and affordable, working exclusively onsite at the client’s office under a recurring schedule that fits within their budget. Typically, engagements are one to two days per week, but can vary.

“Today’s small business owner is immersed in operations, sales, and finance, all of which require time and energy,” said Tom Bartos, Area President of FocusCFO. “FocusCFO works alongside the company’s team to understand their operations and add value to their financial matters. Our goal is to become a long-term trusted advisor for the company,” he added.

FocusCFO carefully selects one of its highly experienced CFOs and he/she works onsite as a member of the company’s team. During the first several months, the FocusCFO team works with the business owner to create a financial roadmap. The CFO then works as part of the company’s internal management team in all aspects of their day-to-day areas involving cash flow, finance and operations. This results in enhanced financial reporting and forecasting, unprecedented clarity and a strategy to meet the client’s goals.

“This gives entrepreneurs running those businesses a level of internal CFO support they never envisioned they would have access to,” said Martyn. “It frees them up to do the things they need to spend time on in order to grow their business.”

FocusCFO has more than 80 Area Presidents, CFOs and support staff serving over 200 clients throughout Ohio, northern Kentucky, western Pennsylvania and southeast Michigan. For more information, visit http://www.focuscfo.com.

This book reminds us to slow down


WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, Mont. (PRWEB)

Within the pages of Gigi Scofield’s new book, As I Look Out of My Kitchen Window ($14.49, paperback, 9781545616604; $6.99, ebook, 9781545619032), readers will find a book containing conversations between God and the author as she looked out of her kitchen window while enjoying the beauty of His creation, family, friends, and wildlife. Through each scene He reminded the author of scripture and she ends with a short prayer.

Scofield believes looking out of a kitchen window can open our eyes not only to the beauty of God’s creation, the love of family and friends, but also the relevance of His Word through everyday life experiences.

“In today’s non-stop society, is your common response, ‘I’m so busy’?” says Scofield. “This book reminds us to slow down, see the beauty of God’s creation, the love of family and friends, to take some quiet moments communicating with the Lord.”

Gigi Scofield grew up in Tarpon Springs, FL and married her high school sweetheart. She is a loving mother to three grown sons and a grandmother of six. It has been her honor to be a pastor’s wife, a Bible teacher of all ages for over thirty-five years (writing many of the lessons herself), a women’s ministry leader, and working mom. Serving God has taken her from Florida to Alabama and, for the past twenty-five years, Montana. While on mission trips to Uganda and Ukraine, she had the pleasure of teaching and encouraging women.

No matter where she is, Gigi loves people and loves the Lord; serving Him is her privilege and joy.
