Live from Biohackers World Los Angeles, sex scholar, bestselling author, and founder of Pleasure Science, Nadege, sits down with Susan K. Shaffer, Co-Founder and President of N1O1 by Pneuma Nitric Oxide, for a candid conversation about women’s health, aging, circulation, and the growing conversation around nitric oxide.
