In the study mentioned in this article, they used 1488 mg of nitrate (in the form of potassium nitrate).
I think though with the ammonia-oxidizing bacteria, this forms a dynamic biochemical system, and the amount of NO and nitrite produced by these bacteria on your skin depends on how much you are sweating, which in turn depends on your sympathetic nervous system activation.
That's a very good point.
Did I read somewhere that you need to expose your skin to sunlight for this effect or have I made that up in my head? I wonder if I'm confusing this with something about oil on the skin and Vit D production.
Am I right in thinking that the abiome stuff isn't available to buy yet, but there's a waiting list?
