Beet Juice: A Natural Way to Lower Blood Pressure

The Power of Nitrates

A 2022 meta-analysis found that nitrate from beetroot juice can help lower blood pressure.

How Beetroot Juice Works

When consumed, the nitrates in beetroot juice are converted to nitric oxide, a compound that relaxes blood vessels and improves blood flow. This can lead to a temporary reduction in blood pressure.

Benefits of Beetroot Juice for Blood Pressure

• Lower systolic blood pressure (the top number)
• Lower diastolic blood pressure (the bottom number)
• Reduce the risk of hypertension (high blood pressure)
