Boost Exercise Stamina
Some studies have suggested that beet juice can help improve levels of plasma nitrates, which subsequently boost physical stamina and athletic performance. That’s why many athletics often drink this beverage to boost their overall performance. In general, nitrates can improve the efficiency of mitochondria, which generate energy in the body cells. At the same time, the maximum output of oxygen is also lowered. Keep in mind that levels of plasma nitrates tend to peak in 2 to 3 hours after drinking beet juice. Thus, make sure to consume the beverage around 2 to 3 hours before competing or training to maximize your overall performance. [2]
