Abstract

Both caffeine and beet juice have been used by athletes and trainers around the world in order to help boost their energy levels and perform longer. Beet juice is used because it contains healthy and natural substances that are essential for the body. However, the main one that athletes are looking for in beet juice is nitrate, because it causes vasodilation in the blood vessels. Caffeine, on the other hand, is the most common substance used by athletes. It is used by athletes because it is an ergogenic aid, which is through to give athletes enhanced energy levels for improved performance.
