Acute Effects of Beet Juice Intake on the Vascular Function of Hypertensive Patients

Study Description
Brief Summary:
To assess the acute effects of only one dose of beet juice on hypertensive subjects treated with vascular endothelial function parameters, using the microvascular reactivity method.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Hypertension Dietary Supplement: Beetroot juice Not Applicable

Detailed Description:
Systemic arterial hypertension is an established risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Among the main modifiable environmental factors of hypertension, the investigators highlight inadequate eating habits, such as low vegetable consumption. Clinical studies have shown that inorganic nitrate from beet juice intake has a protective effect against CVD due to reduced blood pressure, inhibition of platelet aggregation and prevention of endothelial dysfunction. However, there is still no consensus on its benefits of inorganic nitrate in vascular health. Associated with this, there are no previous studies in the literature that correlate the acute effects of inorganic nitrate intake on endothelial function assessed by microvascular reactivity through laser. The objective of the present study is to evaluate the acute effects (single dose) of inorganic nitrate, through the ingestion of beet juice, in the vascular parameters and endothelial function of treated hypertensive patients of both sexes.

Arms and Interventions
Arm Intervention/treatment
Active Comparator: Beetroot juice
Randomized cross-over trial. Thirty-seven hypertension, age 40-70 years were randomized to receive a 500ml volume of beetroot juice in a single moment.
Dietary Supplement: Beetroot juice
Thirty-seven hypertension, with age 40-70 years were randomized to receive a 500ml volume of beetroot juice contains 11.5 mmol of inorganic nitrate or mineral water in a single moment.

Placebo Comparator: Mineral water
Randomized cross-over trial. Thirty-seven hypertension, age 40-70 years were randomized to receive a 500ml volume of mineral water in a single moment.
Dietary Supplement: Beetroot juice
Thirty-seven hypertension, with age 40-70 years were randomized to receive a 500ml volume of beetroot juice contains 11.5 mmol of inorganic nitrate or mineral water in a single moment.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Microvascular reactivity [ Time Frame: 150 minutes ]
    A laser speckle contrast imaging system with a laser wavelength of 785 nm system will measure non-invasively real time cutaneous microvascular flow changes in the forearm. For the post occlusive reactive hyperemia test, arterial occlusion will be performed with suprasystolic pressure (50 mmHg above the systolic arterial pressure) using a sphygmomanometer applied to the arm of the subject over three minutes. Peak skin flow will be measured after pressure release.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Central blood pressure [ Time Frame: 150 minutes ]
    Central systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure and pulse pressure before and after intervention and their potential effects on changes in subendocardial viability ratio and ejection duration after intervention with beetroot juice and water.
