Study Summary
The main purpose/s of this study is to examine the effects of 4 weeks of dietary nitrate supplementation on peripheral chemoreceptor sensitivity, spontaneous baroreflex sensitivity, and blood pressure responsiveness to a variety of physiological stressors in older healthy adults. We will also examine the effect of dietary nitrate supplementation on measures of central artery stiffness and aortic blood pressure in older adults. Lastly, we will also recruit a group of young subjects in order to help characterize the age-related changes associated with the physiological outcome measures of the present study.
Primary Outcome
Carotid chemosensitivity examined by measuring hypoxia ventilatory responsiveness in older adults before and after 4 weeks of beet root juice supplementation and placebo. Chemoreflex sensitivity was quantified as the change in ventilation in relation to the change in pulse oxygen saturation.
