Carbon and Oxygen. 1  We usually refer to the cycling of carbon and oxygen in our atmosphere together because of how they are extremely interconnected. 2  With the exception of certain bacteria all animals, including aquatic, animals need oxygen to survive.
Patients with high blood pressure who drank a daily 250ml glass of beetroot juice experienced an average decrease in blood pressure of about 8/4 mmHg (which for many patients brought their blood pressure levels back into the ânormalâ range).atients were randomly assigned a daily dietary supplementation for four weeks â half received the dietary nitrate (250ml beetroot juice) and the other half received a placebo (250ml nitrate-free beetroot juice).
Beets are rich in natural chemicals called nitrates. Through a chain reaction, your body changes nitrates into nitric oxide, which helps with blood flow and blood pressure. In some studies, drinking about 2 cups of beet juice daily or taking nitrate capsules lowered blood pressure in healthy adults.
