Popis: We report that increasing nitric oxide bioavailability via 8 wk of inorganic nitrate/nitrite supplementation improves maximal aerobic exercise capacity in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Similarly, we observed a rightward shift in the gas exchange threshold. Taken together, these data indicate inorganic nitrate/nitrite may serve as a means to improve fitness in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
