Beet It Sport Nitrate 3000 concentrate contains 7.5 servings of 400mg dietary nitrate (3,000mg per 250ml) packed into each 250ml bottle, derived solely from concentrated beetroot juice.
Beets have been around the endurance sports and nutrition world for a long time, praised for their nitrate-delivering properties and performance supporting nutrients. They essentially signal the body to open up the blood vessels and deliver more oxygen-rich blood to your hard working muscles. Important not only for peak performance but also for general health.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
- After consuming nitrate-rich beetroot juice, nitrate is absorbed into the bloodstream and taken up by the salivary glands, before being converted to nitrite by bacteria in the mouth.
- Nitrite is then swallowed, absorbed into the bloodstream and transported around the body. Nitrite can be converted to nitric oxide in the blood and in various organs including muscle.
- Nitric oxide is important for several processes that influence exercise performance, including vasodilation (widening of blood vessels) and muscle contractility (increase in the force of contraction).
- A key effect of dietary nitrate is that it reduces the oxygen demand of exercise, meaning the muscles need less oxygen to maintain a given work rate, thereby improving exercise efficiency, fatigue resistance and exercise performance.
