Jay Wilkins, ND
Scientific Reviewer — Australiana Life Health & Science Library
Jay Wilkins, ND, is a naturopathic doctor, nitric oxide educator and nutritional supplement formulator with more than 25 years of experience in natural health and wellness and approximately two decades focused specifically on nitric oxide science and nutrition.
A Long-Standing Focus on Nitric Oxide
Dr. Wilkins operated a staffed wellness center from 1993 to 2005, working with a range of naturopathic and complementary approaches including nutrition, supplementation, functional medicine, herbal remedies and other natural-health modalities.
In 2005, after studying the research surrounding nitric oxide and the discoveries recognized by the 1998 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, Dr. Wilkins made a significant change in his professional direction. He sold his wellness practice and turned his attention to nitric oxide education, nutrition and nutritional approaches designed to support the body's natural nitric oxide pathways.
Since then, nitric oxide has remained a major focus of his professional work.
Nitric Oxide Education
For approximately two decades, Dr. Wilkins has worked to increase awareness and understanding of nitric oxide and its role in human physiology, particularly vascular function, blood flow and cardiovascular wellness.
His work has included educating consumers and health professionals and presenting on nitric oxide at natural-health and industry conferences and through other educational media.
His longstanding involvement with nitric oxide provides valuable practical perspective alongside the published scientific research upon which Australiana Life's Health & Science Library is based.
Nutritional Supplement Formulation
Dr. Wilkins also has extensive experience in nutritional supplement development and formulation.
Since 2012, he has served in medical/scientific advisory and formulation roles for supplement manufacturers, assisting in the development of nutritional formulations.
In 2013, he founded Bionox and developed nutritional formulas specifically focused on supporting nitric oxide production. His professional work has continued to include research, development and formulation within the natural-products industry.
