Beetroot juice could help lung disease sufferers breathe more easily
Beetroot is being used to help those suffering with lung disease as part of a new trial.
It is hoped that the vegetable’s deep purple juice, which can enhance blood oxygenation levels - will help relieve symptoms of the condition and free up hospital beds.
Patients suffering with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), will be given the juice as part of their rehabilitation process.
Starting from January, they will be given 140ml of the liquid once a week for two months at a cost of up to £400 per person.
It is hoped that symptoms like breathlessness and fatigue will be reduced.
Several major hospitals in the country are taking part in the trial led by the Royal Brompton Hospital, which has the largest specialist heart and lung centre in the UK.
Because of the high levels of nitrates found in beetroot, drinking its juice can enhance blood oxygenation levels.
