Beet Juice Helps to Lower Blood Pressure!

Monday, June 21, 2010 by Jennifer C
The following is an excerpt of a Q & A from The People's Pharmacy regarding the health benefits connecting blood pressure and  beet juice:

Q. Is there anything in the way of vitamins or herbs that a person can take instead of a prescription drug for high blood pressure? 

A. The newest candidate for natural blood pressure control is beet juice. A study in the journal Hypertension (online Feb. 4, 2008) showed that two cups (500 ml) of beet juice lowered blood pressure by approximately 10 points. That is better than many prescription drugs. The effect lasts up to 24 hours.

Beets are high in dietary nitrate and increase the amount of nitric oxide in the body. Nitric oxide (NO) helps blood vessels relax, lowering blood pressure. NO has anti-inflammatory activity and discourages blood clot formation.
