In contrast to nitric oxide, which has well established and important roles in the regulation of
blood flow and thrombosis, neurotransmission, the normal functioning of the genitourinary …

Inorganic nitrate (NO3−), nitrite (NO2−) and NO are nitrogenous species with a diverse and
interconnected chemical biology. The formation of NO from nitrate and nitrite via a reductive …

Red beetroot (Beta vulgaris), as a naturally occurring root vegetable and a rich source of
phytochemicals and bioactive compounds, is known for its beneficial roles in the …

Nitric oxide (NO) contributes to carbohydrate metabolism and decreased NO bioavailability
is involved in the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). NO donors may improve …

Beetroot juice (BRJ) has become increasingly popular amongst athletes aiming to improve
sport performances. BRJ contains high concentrations of nitrate, which can be converted …

Aging is associated with a decline in physiological function and exercise performance.
These effects are mediated, at least in part, by an age-related decrease in the bioavailability …

Vegetable derived nitrate is now recognised as an important bioactive phytochemical with
cardioprotective properties. Nitrate, through the recently described enterosalivary nitrate …

Background Dietary nitrate is an important source of nitric oxide (NO), a molecule critical for
cardiovascular health. Nitrate is sequentially reduced to NO through an enterosalivary …

There is strong evidence that diabetes is closely linked with gut dysbiosis such that insults to
the gut microbiota can lead to diabetes. Meanwhile, since diabetes can be caused by a …

Supplementation with nitrate (NO3−)-rich beetroot juice has been shown to improve
exercise performance and cardiovascular (CV) responses, due to an increased nitric oxide …
