Why beetroot interests active people.
Beetroot naturally contains nitrate. The body can convert it into nitric oxide, a signal that helps blood vessels relax and regulate blood flow. Researchers have studied this pathway because it may affect how much oxygen muscles need for a given effort. Beetarc supplies whole beetroot powder; its nitrate amount is not declared, so it cannot be equated with the measured nitrate doses used in those studies.
