Just read this article about a new study on Beetroot juice, and the dramatic increase seen in endurance athletes who drink the juice, of 16%!!  The thought is that it may be the nitrates in the Beetroot, but scientists are still not sure.  Nevertheless 16% is a big difference, as anyone training at their own edge for a long time knows, improvements seem to come slowly, and with much effort.   I think I’m going to go and buy some beets for the grocery store today, dig out my juicemaker machine, and try this!!
