Prior beetroot juice ingestion offsets endothelial dysfunction following prolonged sitting

Journal of Applied Physiology, 2022
The present study elucidates that beetroot juice ingestion before prolonged sitting offsets sitting-induced leg endothelial dysfunction. Data from the present study provides novel physiological information that enhancing NO bioavailability by dietary nitrate supplementation is an effective tool for prevention of the detrimental vascular effects of ...

Beetroot juice and exercise: pharmacodynamic and dose-response relationships

Journal of Applied Physiology, 2013
Dietary supplementation with beetroot juice (BR), containing approximately 5–8 mmol inorganic nitrate (NO3−), increases plasma nitrite concentration ([NO2−]), reduces blood pressure, and may positively influence the physiological responses to exercise.

The benefits and risks of beetroot juice consumption

Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition, 2021
Beetroot juice (BRJ) has become increasingly popular amongst athletes aiming to improve sport performances. BRJ contains high concentrations of nitrate, which can be converted into nitric oxide (NO) after consumption. NO has various functions in the human body, including a vasodilatory effect, which reduces blood pressure and increases oxygen- and ...

Rheological modeling of non-depectinized beetroot juice concentrates

Journal of Food Measurement and Characterization, 2015
The rheological behavior of non-depectinized beetroot juice concentrate (25, 35, 45 and 55 °Brix) was studied over a wide range of temperature (30, 40, 50, 60, 70 and 80 °C) using a controlled rate, rotational rheometer. From the applied non-Newtonian rheological models, power law model was found to be the best fit with the values of flow behavior ...

Beetroot Juice Enhances Functional Sympatholysis in Hypertensive Humans

The FASEB Journal, 2017
Functional sympatholysis (FS) is attenuated in patients diagnosed with hypertension (HTN) and hypertensive animal models alike. There is conflicting evidence, however, between human and animal models on the role of nitric oxide (NO) in determining the degree of FS.

Beetroot Juice Increases Human Muscle Force without Changing Ca2+-Handling Proteins

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2017
Dietary inorganic nitrate (NO3) supplementation improves skeletal muscle (SkM) contractile efficiency, and although rodent literature has suggested improvements in calcium handling or redox modifications as likely explanations, the direct mechanism of action in humans remains unknown.This study aimed to examine the effects of 7 d of beetroot juice (BRJ)

Nitrate-rich Beetroot Juice Vs. Nitrate-rich Chard Gel

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2016
It has been suggested that the pharmacokinetics of nitrate (NO3-) may differ depending on the delivery vehicle, although this has not yet been explored in the same group of study participants.  PURPOSE: To compare the changes in blood pressure (BP), plasma [NO3-], nitrite [NO2-], and total nitroso species [RXNO] following ingestion of commercially ...
