Well, I never said "orally." If it's beneficial to get NO via sunlight on your skin, it doesn't seem crazy that it might work via some lotion. Even considering oral supplements, one might also take a precursor if the molecule itself isn't stable in the stomach.

It's true there may be some important difference between sunlight-induced NO generation and whatever other supplement/injection/lotion/etc, but my point here is that the right approach is to focus on the mechanism, and avoid the naturalistic fallacy.
