Beet It Sport Nitrate 400 - High Nitrate shots - Concentrated Beetroot Juice (15 x 70ml) Boost Nitric Oxide and Athletic Endurance Performance

Product Information

Effect of 1-week betalain-rich beetroot concentrate supplementation on cycling performance and select physiological parameters [Abstract]. Additional physiological benefits of NO include improved mitochondrial efficiency and glucose uptake in muscle [ 19] and enhanced muscle contraction and relaxation processes [ 20]. J. Acute Beetroot Juice Supplementation Does Not Improve Cycling Performance in Normoxia or Moderate Hypoxia. What sets Beet IT Nitrate 400 apart from other beetroot juice products on the market is its consistent and adequate dose of dietary nitrate per serving. The scientific literature shows discrepancies regarding the improvement of the cardiorespiratory performance induced by the supplementation of beetroot juice under hypoxic conditions.

By decreasing the amount of oxygen the muscles require to sustain a given workload, Beet IT Nitrate 400 enhances exercise efficiency, delays fatigue, and ultimately improves overall exercise performance. Improved efficiency was accompanied by a longer time-to-exhaustion in a test at 75% between VT1 and VO 2max. Absence of an effect of high nitrate intake from beetroot juice on blood pressure in treated hypertensive individuals: A randomized controlled trial. Once in the acidic stomach, nitrite is instantly decomposed to convert to NO and other nitrogen oxides performing determinant physiological functions ( Figure 1).

In chronic supplementations with beetroot juice, it appears that the benefits in cardiorespiratory performance might be produced in longer intake protocols of about six days [ 33, 35]. Compared with the placebo group, the beetroot concentrate group had higher exercise efficiency and increased blood flow. However, not all studies show a positive effect to acute beetroot supplementation indicating that the efficacy of acute nitrate supplementation will be attributed to several factors such as the age, diet, physiological and training status, and other parameters as the intensity, duration, endurance modality and environment conditions [ 78]. The study results might reflect a lower VO 2 response at submaximal intensities, which would reduce the increase in the slow component, delaying the time when the athletes reached VO 2max and therefore became fatigued.

Beetroot as a functional food with huge health benefits: Antioxidant, antitumor, physical function, and chronic metabolomics activity.

A plateau effect occurs in performance improvement, at doses ranging from 3 to 6 mg/kg of caffeine [ 75]. This is an interesting finding for athletes as there is evidence that the economy is a key factor to improve cardiorespiratory performance increasing energy efficiency in endurance sports modalities.

A decrease in VO 2 and improved efficiency was also observed after beetroot juice supplementation, but did not reach statistical significance.Push the beetroots, apples and ginger through a juicer, or alternatively, chop the beetroot and apple, and whizz in batches with 300-350ml of water in a high-powered blender until completely smooth, then strain through a fine sieve, really pushing it through. Among the factors that could be responsible for this decrease, we would highlight decreased supply of oxygen to muscles, due to a partial reduction in oxygen pressure. It is probably better to eat the real vegetables, but few of us do and the health claims for it are fantastic. It is an official supplier of the NN Running Team which Kenyan marathon world record holder Eliud Kipchoge is part of, and Welsh Tour de France winner Geraint Thomas is a Beet It user.

Each shot boasts a minimum 400mg of natural nitrate the optimal daily dose required to beet your personal best! M. Influence of acute dietary nitrate supplementation on 50 mile time trial performance in well-trained cyclists. Other good food sources of nitrates include spinach, radishes, lettuce, celery, and Chinese cabbage. At an intensity below VT1 60% VO 2max efforts, approximately stabilization of VO 2 is observed from the 3-min point until the end of the effort [ 52].

We have a huge body of science behind Beet It shots however the rules of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) health claims approval system are such that there is no incentive for us to seek an approval.
