Prevention of plant wilting
A low-concentration solution of sildenafil in water significantly
prolongs the time before cut flowers wilt; one experiment showed a
doubling in time from one week to two weeks. The mechanism of
action is similar to that in humans: nitric oxide leads to the
production of cGMP whose degradation by PDE5 is inhibited by
sildenafil.[26]
Is that (nitric oxide) why some TMers look rather young for their
age in years?
You're confusing nitric oxide with nitrous oxide, aka, "laughing
gas"--however both compounds are part of the biochemistry involved in
meditative states of consciousness, namely the bio- and neuro-
mechanics of samadhi and unity.
Another controversial 70's guru, Bhagwan Rajneesh, was a big fan of
nitrous oxide, and of course Bhang lassis--the marijuana milkshake
rasayana.
