Exercise performance and recovery is the main area connected here, and any felt benefit should be read together with the human evidence base.
Some human supplement-context evidence is present and directly informs the score.
Representative tier calculated from paper evidence that passed the collection audit.
The representative ingredient tier is calculated from these target-level evidence groups.
10 new papers were added in this period. No new risk signal was identified.
Standalone side-effect signals and combination cautions are listed separately.
No standalone side-effect or combination signal is currently clear enough to show from the collected papers. This does not mean there is no concern.

It is suggested that dietary nitrate underlies the beneficial effects of a vegetable-rich diet and highlights the potential of a “natural” low cost approach for the treatment of cardiovascular disease.
A role for dietary nitrate as an affordable, readily-available, adjunctive treatment in the management of hypertensive patients is suggested and first evidence of durable blood pressure reduction with dietary nitrate supplementation in a relevant patient group
[Abstract]: Diets rich in green, leafy vegetables have been shown to lower blood pressure (BP) and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Green, leafy vegetables and beetroot are particularly rich in inorganic nitrate. Dietary nitrate supplementation, via
Dietary NO3− supplementation is likely to elicit a positive outcome when testing endurance exercise capacity, whereas dietary NO3 − supplementation is less likely to be effective for time-trial performance.
A systematic review of random clinical trials published from 2008 to 2018 was able to demonstrate that BRJ supplementation is a cost-effective strategy that might reduce blood pressure in different populations, probably through the nitrate/nitrite/nitric oxide
Findings provide new evidence for the acute effects of nitrate-rich beetroot juice on circulating immune cells and platelets and if these effects reduce the risk of developing hypertension and vascular inflammation with aging.
