One glass of this juice helps support healthy arteries and lower high blood pressure…
That claim is most commonly associated with Beetroot juice.
Beetroot juice contains naturally occurring nitrates, which the body converts into nitric oxide. Nitric oxide helps blood vessels relax and widen, which can improve blood flow and may modestly lower blood pressure in some people. Research suggests regular consumption can have a small but measurable effect on blood pressure, although it is not a substitute for prescribed treatment.
A few important points:
- The effect is usually modest, not a cure for hypertension.
- Results vary from person to person.
- People taking blood pressure medications should monitor their pressure carefully, as combining lifestyle changes and medication can sometimes lower it further.
- A heart-healthy diet, exercise, weight management, and medical treatment when needed remain the most effective approaches.
