Summary
This study tested whether a daily capsule of betalains (natural pigments from beetroot) can improve blood vessel function, sleep, and quality of life in healthy middle-aged people. 42 adults aged 40-65 took either the betalain capsule or a placebo for one month, then switched. Researchers measured blood vessel health, used fitness trackers for sleep, and collected questionnaires. The goal was to see if this simple supplement offers real benefits for aging well.
