Feasibility and Tolerability of Daily Microgreen Consumption in Healthy Middle-Aged/Older Adults: A Randomized, Open-Label, Controlled Crossover Trial Open
Background/Objectives: Microgreens are rich in nutrients and phytochemicals that can support healthy aging, including attenuation of cardiovascular disease risk. The nutrient and phytochemical contents of red beet (i.e., bull’s blood’ beet…

Daily blueberry consumption for 12 weeks improves endothelial function in postmenopausal women with above-normal blood pressure through reductions in oxidative stress: a randomized controlled trial Open
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial showed that blueberries improve endothelial function through reduced oxidative stress in postmenopausal women with above-normal blood pressure.

Blueberries Improve Endothelial Function in Postmenopausal Women With Above-Normal Blood Pressure via Reductions in Oxidative Stress Open
OBJECTIVES: Research suggests blueberries and their (poly)phenols may improve endothelial dysfunction, a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of consuming 22 g/day fo…

Effects of Red Beetroot Juice and Inorganic Nitrate Supplementation on Oral Bacteria and Nitric Oxide Metabolites in Middle-Aged/Older Adults with Overweight and Obesity Open
OBJECTIVES: Dietary inorganic nitrate from foods such as red beetroot juice (RBJ) can contribute to nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability through the enterosalivary nitrate-nitrite-NO pathway. A critical step in this pathway is the reduction o…

Impact of Red Beetroot Juice on Vascular Endothelial Function and Cardiometabolic Responses to a High-Fat Meal in Middle-Aged/Older Adults with Overweight and Obesity: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Crossover Trial Open
HFM consumption did not impair postprandial endothelial function in this population, and RBJ exposure did not alter postprandial endothelial function or other outcomes despite increasing NOx concentrations. This trial is registered at clin…

Impact of Acute and Chronic Red Beetroot Juice Consumption on Postprandial Endothelial Function and Levels of Nitrate/Nitrite in Plasma and Saliva (P06-113-19) Open
OBJECTIVES: High-fat meal (HFM) consumption has been shown to impair postprandial endothelial function. Red beetroot juice (RBJ) contains polyphenols, betalains, carotenoids, ascorbic acid, and inorganic nitrate, and has been shown to impr…
