Acute whole body UVA irradiation combined with nitrate ingestion enhances time trial performance in trained cyclists (2014)
Journal Article
Muggeridge, D. J., Sculthorpe, N., Grace, F. M., Willis, G., Thornhill, L., Weller, R. B., James, P. E., & Easton, C. (2015). Acute whole body UVA irradiation combined with nitrate ingestion enhances time trial performance in trained cyclists. Nitric Oxide: Biology and Chemistry, 48, 3-9. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.niox.2014.09.158

Dietary nitrate supplementation has been shown to increase nitric oxide (NO) metabolites, reduce blood pressure (BP) and enhance exercise performance. Acute exposure to ultraviolet (UV)-A light also increases NO bioavailability and reduces BP. We con...

A Single Dose of Beetroot Juice Enhances Cycling Performance in Simulated Altitude (2014)
Journal Article
Muggeridge, D. J., Howe, C. C. F., Spendiff, O., Pedlar, C., James, P. E., & Easton, C. (2014). A Single Dose of Beetroot Juice Enhances Cycling Performance in Simulated Altitude. Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, 46(1), 143-150. https://doi.org/10.1249/mss.0b013e3182a1dc51

INTRODUCTION: Increasing nitric oxide bioavailability via supplementation with nitrate-rich beetroot juice (BR) has been shown to attenuate the negative effect of hypoxia on peripheral oxygen saturation and exercise tolerance. PURPOSE: We investig... Read More about A Single Dose of Beetroot Juice Enhances Cycling Performance in Simulated Altitude.
