1. Reduces blood pressure. Because beets contain nitrates that are natural vasodilators. The nitrates are converted by oral bacteria and then stomach acid into nitric oxide (NO). Nitric oxide opens up blood vessels in the same way nitroglycerin tablets do, only naturally. (1)
2. Improves endothelial function. This leads to healthier blood vessels. Endothelial cells line the inside of blood vessels. For several reasons, beets improved endothelial function and health. (2)
