Dietary Inorganic Nitrate Cardiac Parasympathetic Recovery Older Women Randomized Crossover StudyOnce ingested, nitrate (NO) undergoes entero-salivary circulation and is reduced to nitrite and subsequently to nitric oxide (NO), especially under hypoxic or acidic conditions common during post-exercise recovery [,].1Raimundo Rodrigo D.

Dietary Inorganic Nitrate Cardiac Parasympathetic Recovery Older Women Randomized Crossover Study1 5 6 Evidence from exercise trials suggests both benefits and limitations of beetroot juice (BJ) supplementation: BJ has been shown to improve blood pressure regulation, endothelial function, and autonomic recovery; however, inconsistent results have been reported when compared to nitrate salts or when used in different exercise modalities [,].1Raimundo Rodrigo D.
