Muscle Motivating Choco-Beet Blend

Yields1 Serving

Beets contain nitrates, which are converted into nitric oxide in your body. Nitric oxide relaxes and dilates your blood vessels, improving blood flow and lowering blood pressure, which may enhance your tolerance to high-intensity exercise. Combine with a touch of unsweetened cocoa powder, this smoothie will feel more like dessert than anything else!
