I've been using beet root powder as a supplement towards my running endeavors. It a well-researched supplement that comes recommended by many coaches for those doing long distance running. Anyway, I've always bought a powder and mixed it with water before my runs. It's been very beneficial. Call me lazy, but when I saw this product, I loved the idea of a fromulation with flavour and magnsieum and potassium, also which lower blood pressure. My running has been just as optimal. I highly recommend going for it.
