Abstract in brief

  • Inorganic nitrate and beetroot juice supplementation can significantly lower blood pressure, especially systolic BP, based on a review of 16 randomized clinical trials.
  • The studies showed that consuming these nitrate-rich foods led to an average reduction of about 4.4 mm Hg in systolic blood pressure and 1.1 mm Hg in diastolic BP, with higher doses correlating with greater effects.
  • However, these findings are based on short-term studies, so more long-term research is needed to confirm their potential benefits, particularly for people with higher cardiovascular risk.]

✅ビーツは生で食べる方が血圧を下げるのに効果的！ ビーツは体内でNOを作る硝酸塩を多く含み、血圧を下げるのに効果的です。 また、調理されたビーツよりも生やジュースなどで摂取するのがより効果的とされています！ https://t.co/dZ0TWiEUDW

@bapbray @ggkuhnle @BernardSrour @QUBFoodProf I’m surprised as there is good evidence from RCTs showing blood pressure lowering effects of nitrate and nitrate-rich foods like beetroot https://t.co/5afh9xzkQF
