Scientists link beetroot juice to lower blood pressure

Beetroot juice is linked by some researchers to lower blood pressure. According to a report on MSN, there may be a connection between the consumption of the juice and vascular function. How this exactly works is, according to the source, not yet entirely clear.
The idea stems from earlier research into nitrates, substances that naturally occur in beets. Nitrates are converted in the body and, according to some studies, could influence blood circulation. Whether this actually leads to a measurable reduction in blood pressure is a subject of discussion.
The source emphasizes that there is no proven health effect. Anyone considering using beetroot juice should not expect medical results for the time being. According to the report, it remains primarily a natural product without guaranteed effectiveness.
