简要总结
The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of acute beetroot juice supplementation on exercise performance and cardiometabolic health in obese individuals with secondary cardiometabolic complications. Additionally, we will determine if the ergogenic health benefits of beetroot juice is due to the nitric oxide compound within the product, the antioxidant compound within the product, or a combination of the two compounds.
