Other good sources of nitrogen are artichokes, asparagus, all types of beans, leafy greens, spinach, cucumber and even the humble pea.

Other foods that have an abundance of an amino acid named L-arginine (a good source of nitric oxide) are nuts such as almonds,hazelnuts, walnuts and peanuts as well as fish that is oily like tuna, mackerel and salmin as they have alot of omega-3 fatty acids in them.
