In a recent review article published in the journal Frontiers in Nutrition, researchers in the United States synthesized what is known about the beneficial effects of beetroot juice (BRJ) in terms of exercise capacity and physiological function.
They concluded that the benefits of BRJ surpass those of dietary nitrate (NO3-) and nitrate salts (NIT) because of the variety of phytonutrients it contains, boosting training and recovery outcomes.
