IMPROVE CYCLING PERFORMANCE WITH BEETROOT JUICE

In a recent survey, British researchers from Cardiff university School of Medicine, found that a single dose of beetroot juice improved exercise performance at a simulated altitude of 2500 meters and also improved cycling efficiency. 
Beetroot is high in nitrates that stimulate the inner lining of blood vessels to secrete nitric oxide, a chemical that controls blood flow. The survey concluded that the root is an effective performance-enhancing supplement that would be helpful for endurance athletes during practice or competition.

So.....if you havn't already done so, it might be time to try out this delicious 'Purple' Juice.




'Purple' Juice: 1 medium beetroot
                1/2 head of celery
                1 apple
                1 pear
                1 inch ginger
                1 lemon (without rind)
