It then transported with the blood around the body and adheres in part to the cells that dress the inside of blood vessels. Scientists believe this get these cells to produce the gas nitric oxide (NO). It is known from earlier that nitric oxide expands blood vessels and inhibits the formation of blood clots. This reduces the likelihood that you get a heart attack or stroke.
