Abstrakt: Long-term consumption of beetroot juice on efficacy of converting dietary nitrate to plasma nitrate and nitrite was investigated. Adults were randomized to consume either beetroot juice with 380 mg of nitrate (BR) or a beetroot juice placebo (PL) for 12-weeks. Plasma nitrate and nitrite were measured before and 90-minutes after consuming their intervention beverage. Percent change in nitrite across the 90 min was greater in BR (273.2 ± 39.9%) vs. PL (4.9 ± 36.9%). Long-term consumption of nitrate containing beetroot juice increased fasting nitrate and nitrite plasma levels compared to baseline. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
