Daily habit enhances beetroot's heart benefits

A study published at King's College London found that chewing sugar-containing gum after consuming beet juice increases nitrite levels in the mouth and blood. This contributes to vasodilation, improved blood flow, and a blood pressure reduction of about 3/2 mm Hg. The results showed that sugary gum enhances the activity of bacteria responsible for converting nitrates into nitrites, although it may negatively impact dental health and metabolic health. Researchers are exploring ways to achieve the same benefits through safer methods.
