Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Older adults with coronary artery disease (CAD) have impaired vascular and inspiratory muscle function. The overarching goal of this double-blind, randomized, crossover, placebo-controlled pilot trial was to inform the development of a fully powered trial to evaluate the effects of dietary nitrate supplementation in older adults with CAD. We aimed to address the following objectives: (a) assess the feasibility, tolerability, and safety of the study protocol; (b) gather preliminary evidence on the effects of nitrate-rich beetroot juice compared with nitrate-depleted beetroot juice (placebo), and estimate the effect sizes; and (c) determine if a full-scale definitive trial is justified.
