Study Summary

Women who enter menopause early are at a greater risk for developing cardiovascular disease later in life as compared to women with normal onset of menopause. This increased risk may be due to a prolonged length of time with decreased hormone levels post-menopause; however, this health risk remains understudied. The current study plan to study why women with early menopause are at higher risk for cardiovascular disease by evaluating their sympathetic nervous system and heart-blood vessel function. In addition, there is lack of promising treatment plans for cardiovascular disease in post-menopausal women. Therefore, the current study will also test the impact of dietary nitrate on post-menopausal women to determine if it might serve as a potential treatment to reduce risk of cardiovascular disease in older women.
