Beetroot Juice Shot
Beetroot juice shot with lemon and ginger. Beetroot contains naturally occurring nitrates NO3– that, with a little help from your saliva, are transformed via nitrites NO2– to nitric oxide NO. This molecules is a vasodilator and so can help to reduce your blood pressure. Beetroot also contains the phytonutrients/ phytochemicals betacyanin and betanin; both have strong antioxidant properties. All this in just one shot. Drinking is good for you!
You could also add a little turmeric to the juice, if you like.
