Beetroot contains high quantities of nitrates. These nitrates are converted to nitrites during digestion. They are then absorbed in the stomach.
Studies show that the nitrates in the beetroot juice have a great impact on the circulatory system.
They do so by increasing the levels of blood nitric oxide in the body.
Research showed that beetroot juice is as efficient as the nitrate capsules. It shows that the lowering of the blood pressure lasted at least for 24 hours.
Just a glass of beetroot juice is needed per day, so as to reduce and control the blood pressure.
