BeetActive

Beetroots are a rich source of dietary nitrates. Supplementation with these can lead to a more efficient use of oxygen during energy production, ultimately leading to an increased tolerance to exercise.

Results from research examining a range of exercise modalities shows that consumption of beetroot juice can lead to a significant boost (5-15%) to endurance performance. BeetActive is a great tasting 100% natural beetroot concentrate, rich in dietary nitrates (229mg per serving). We recommend taking a 30ml serving of BeetActive diluted 250-500ml of water two hours before training or an event.

Can beetroot juice help get a PB?
