Beetroot Juice

  Beetroot juice - a new phenomenon! A recent medical research study has suggested that drinking half a litre, or just under a pint, of beetroot juice every day could reduce high blood pressure or hypertension.

  Why is beetroot juice so effective? This is thanks to the high nitrate content found in the vegetable, the winning ingredient that reacts with bacteria in the mouth. The chemical changes which then occur result in blood vessels dilating to allow an increase in blood flow.  This reduces both the systolic and diastolic readings, thereby leading to an overall lowering of your blood pressure.

  The study of the effects of drinking beetroot juice, conducted in London and supported by professional medical institutions, reports that positive signs were starting to show after just 1 hour.  Better results were indicated after 3-4 hours lasting up to 24 hours.

  Statistics show that more than 25% of the world's adult population suffers from hypertension, a figure estimated to increase in the next couple of decades. The condition leads to life-threatening illnesses such as coronary heart disease and strokes and appears to be a result of modern living. Could beetroot juice be an economical and simple treatment for reducing your blood pressure? We think beetroot juice is going to be the latest must-have supplement and should be added to your diet.

  The vegetable itself also has many other qualities, not just the beetroot juice. It is packed full of vitamins and minerals and has a powerful anti-oxidant, betacyanin, giving it its deep red colour. The iron content has long been known to be good for the blood and has anti-carcinogenic properties. It has been shown to boost liver function, regenerating immune cells. And thanks to the silica content in the beetroot juice your skin, fingernails and bones also benefit.

  There's no doubt about it - beetroot juice is a great start to regaining a healthy lifestyle so let's get back to living healthily again and increase our chances of enjoying a long and happy life. Consuming herbal, organic remedies and unprocessed foods, beetroot juice being just one of them, goes a long way to maintaining a healthy cardio-vascular system.
