NCT ID NCT07172425
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 05, 2026 · Updated 30 times
Summary
This study looks at whether adding nitrate—a natural compound found in leafy greens and beetroot—to common foods like cereal bars, porridge, and biscuits can help the body produce more nitric oxide, which may lower blood pressure. Thirty healthy adults will eat these fortified foods in a random order, and researchers will measure nitrate levels in their blood, saliva, and urine, along with blood pressure changes. The goal is to find an affordable, tasty way to support heart health, especially for people in low-income countries.
