The blood pressure lowering effect of nitrate-rich beetroot juice in older people may be due to specific changes in their oral microbiome, according to the largest study of its kind.

Billions of years ago— 1.45 billion by some sources —single-celled life forms gobbled up bacteria that, in turn, began to provide them with energy. Eventually, the bacteria became part of the ...

Drinking beetroot juice promotes a mix of mouth bacteria associated with healthier blood vessels and brain function, according to a new study of people aged 70-80.

NO is primarily produced through two pathways: the endogenous L-arginine pathway, which relies on NO synthase enzymes, and the nitrate–nitrite–NO pathway, in which commensal oral bacteria ...

To provide mechanistic constraints to interpret nitrogen (N) and oxygen (O) isotope ratios of nitrate ( NO 3 − ), 15N/14N and 18O/16O, in the environment, we measured the enzymatic NO 3 − N and O ...
