The effect of red beetroot juice on MDA (left side) and NOx (left side) in plasma, aorta, heart, and liver of studied groups. Red beetroot juice increased NOx content in plasma (e), aorta (f), heart (g) and liver (h) end of 6 weeks of study. There are 6 rats in each group. Statistical comparison between groups was made using a Mann–Whitney U test. MDA levels in plasma (a), aorta (b), heat (c), and liver (d) is illustrated at the end of the study. Red beetroot juice was fed for 6 weeks to 34 weeks old rats. There are 6 rats in each group. Statistical comparison between groups was made using a Mann–Whitney U test.
