Summary

This study looks at whether drinking beetroot juice, which is high in nitrate, can help people with fibrotic interstitial lung disease exercise longer. Participants will drink either nitrate-rich or nitrate-free beetroot juice and then do a cycling test. The goal is to see if the juice improves exercise endurance and reduces shortness of breath.
