“…Recently, Benjamin et al. 21 showed that beetroot extract can acutely improve both cardiovascular and autonomic recovery after resistance exercise in healthy young adults. In this study, the HRV index (in time and non-linear domains) responses after exercise were similar to ours, showing that the exercise improved post-exercise HRV.…”

Objectives To compare the acute effects of a single dose of beetroot juice (BJ) with different concentrations of nitrate (NO 3 − ) on heart rate variability (HRV) in postmenopausal hypertensive women. Methods Thirteen hypertensive postmenopausal women (58.1 ± 4.6 years of age and 27 ± 4 kg/m 2 of BMI) completed the protocol that consisted of three visits with different beverage intakes in a randomized and crossover design. The three beverages were BJ with a high content of nitrate (high-NO 3 - ), BJ with a low content of nitrate (low-NO 3 - ), and an orange flavored non-caloric drink (OFD). Heart rate (HR) were evaluated during 20 min after sitting rest at 7:20 a.m. (baseline), after they drank one of the drinks, and remained at sitting rest for 120 min and then performed 40 min of aerobic exercise at 65–70% of the HR reserve on a treadmill. HR was recorded for 90 min after exercise for time, frequency, and non-linear domains of HRV index analysis. Results Two-way ANOVA showed that there were no interaction effects (time∗sessions) in any of the HRV indexes after exercise in all three sessions. HRV indexes increased after exercise ( p = <0.05) similarly in all three sessions when compared with the baseline time point. Conclusion Therefore, a single dose of BJ, independent of NO 3 − content, does not change aerobic exercise-mediated responses in HRV indexes in hypertensive postmenopausal women.

“…Numerous studies have xated on investigating whether nutritional interventions (e.g., energy drinks, caffeine) [11][12][13][14] can induce a delay in the recovery of HR and HRV and so increase cardiovascular risk. Others researches pursues the identi cation of compounds that optimize these parameters and minimize the cardiac stress produced by physical exercise 15 .…”

Introduction: There is no evidence that beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.) extract is advantageous for the recovery of cardiovascular parameters and the autonomic nervous system (ANS) after submaximal aerobic exercise. Objective: To evaluate the effect of beetroot extract supplementation on the recovery of cardiorespiratory and autonomic parameters after a submaximal aerobic exercise session. Methods: Sixteen healthy male adults performed a cross-over, randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled trial. Beetroot extract (600mg) or placebo (600mg) were ingested 90 minutes before evaluation in randomized days. We evaluated systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), pulse pressure (PP), mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), and HR variability (HRV) indexes at Rest and during 60 minutes of recovery from submaximal aerobic exercise. Results: Beetroot extract ingestion accelerated HR, SBP, and MAP reduction after exercise and anticipated the return of vagal modulation of the heart following exercise via the HF (ms2) index. Conclusions: Beetroot extract was revealed to be effective for recovery of the cardiovascular and autonomic systems following submaximal aerobic exercise in healthy males.

RESUMOO objetivo do estudo foi comparar os efeitos agudos da ingestão de uma dose de suco de beterraba com diferentes concentrações de nitrato (NO3 -), na Variabilidade de Frequência Cardíaca (VFC) em mulheres hipertensas na pós menopausa. Participaram do estudo trezes mulheres hipertensas e na pós menopausa (58,1±4,62 anos e 27,4±4,25 kg/m 2 ). As voluntárias realizaram três visitas para ingestão de diferentes sucos em ordem randomizada e cruzada: Suco de beterraba com alto teor de nitrato (High -NO3 -), suco de beterraba com baixo teor de nitrato (Low -NO3 -) e a bebida não calórica sabor de laranja (OFD). As voluntárias chegavam as 7h00 no laboratório e eram conduzidas até uma sala para a análise da Frequência Cardíaca (FC) de repouso na posição sentada durante 20 minutos. Posteriormente elas ingeriam uma das bebidas e permaneciam em repouso durante duas horas até o começo do exercício aeróbico em esteira ergométrica, que era realizado com intensidade a 65-70% da Frequência Cardíaca de Reserva (FCR) por 40 minutos. Após o final da sessão de exercício novamente era conduzidas até a sala e permaneciam por 90 minutos para análise da FC. A partir dos dados da FC pré e pós exercício foi calculada a VFC das três sessões nos domínios do tempo (RMSSD, SDNN, Pnn50), frequência (HF, LF, LF/HF) e não lineares (SD2, SD1, SD2/SD1). A ANOVA two way mostrou que não houve diferença em nenhum ponto dos 90 minutos nos domínios da VFC, para tempo, SDNN (p=0,24), RMSSD (p=0,59) e Pnn50 (p=0,81), para frequência, LF (p=0,54), HF (p=0,80) e LF/HF (p=0,39) e domínios não lineares, sendo, SD2 (p=0,55), SD1 (p=0,10) e SD2/SD1 (p=0,46) após a realização do exercício, quando comparadas as três sessões. Assim parece que a ingestão do suco de beterraba com alto ou baixo teor de Nitrato não alteram de maneira aguda as respostas da variabilidade da frequência cardíaca após uma sessão de exercício aeróbio em mulheres hipertensas na pós menopausa.
