Product Information

Because nitrate can cause blood vessels to dilate, it’s possible some people may experience headaches following beetroot ingestion. Bread fortified with white beetroot was associated with a 19.3/16.5 mmHg reduction in blood pressure. In the body the nitrate ultimately gets converted into nitric oxide and that can dilate the blood vessels and lower your resting blood pressure, so there are health benefits as well as performance ones. Increasing our consumption of nitrate-containing foodstuffs is a very good thing. What’s the best way to increase dietary nitrate to improve performance – through supplements or by eating nitrate-rich foods?

Early research shows that drinking beetroot juice for 2 weeks does not seem to reduce pain in the fingers or toes when people with Raynaud syndrome are exposed to cold temperatures. Nitrate-rich beetroot juice (12.9 mmol of nitrate) or a placebo (nitrate-depleted beetroot juice (0.5 mmol of nitrate)

Compared with the placebo, beetroot juice (dietary nitrate) was associated with reductions in systolic and diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure and total peripheral resistance at rest and during exercise. Our vision is a world free from the fear of heart and circulatory diseases. We raise money to research cures and treatments for the world’s biggest killers. Learn more about us Beetroot tends to be dosed on the nitrate content, with around 0.1-0.2mmol/kg (6.4-12.8mg/kg) being the target for nitrate. This is about 436mg for a 150lb person, which is comparable to half a kilogram (500g) of the beetroots themselves (wet weight). Compared to the placebo, plasma nitrite levels increased significantly after the nitrate-rich beetroot juice (38% after an acute dose and 129% after 1 week of daily doses).

Early research shows that taking beetroot juice doesn't lower blood pressure in pregnant women with high blood pressure. Heart disease. Early research shows that taking red beetroot extract for 2 weeks can reduce total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein ( LDL or "bad") cholesterol, and triglycerides in people with heart disease. Inorganic nitrate derived from beetroot juice was associated with reductions in systolic blood pressure in patients with arterial hypertension. The authors concluded that dietary nitrate from beetroot juice may be an effective method to reduce the blood pressure of patients with arterial hypertension (in interventions up to 2 months duration).

When taken by mouth: Beet is LIKELY SAFE for most people when taken in the amounts typically found in foods. Beet is POSSIBLY SAFE for most people when taken by mouth in medicinal amounts. The beetroot supplement should be ingested within 90 minutes before athletic effort, since the peak value of nitrate has been shown to occur within 2–3 hours after ingestion.

The fiber in beets may also support digestive health, decrease appetite, and promote feelings of fullness, thereby reducing your overall calorie intake ( 38). Let’s talk about runners. The fitter you are as a runner, the higher your VO2 maxand the better your PBs, the less you’re likely to benefit in absolute terms. That’s probably because most of the things that need to be adapted are already adapted. Plus, if your energy output is so high, you’re probably consuming more calories and you’re probably making sensible dietary choices, and it might be that you’re consuming enough nitrate anyway. But that’s not to say that there might be a small effect, and certainly a lot of elite distance runners including Eliud Kipchoge do swear by it. They seem to believe it improves their performance.I think a bit of both. We need to be conscious of our food choices. It’s not just beetroot juice that contains nitrate – there’s lots in various lettuces and spinaches, and green leafy veg generally. So making those choices is beneficial. But often, it’s not so easy to eat five-plus portions per day, and supplementing your diet with a shot or a glass of beetroot juice once a day is probably a good way to ensure we’re getting enough of that particular nutrient.
