#101 Dr. Andy Galpin: The Optimal Diet, Supplement, & Recovery Protocol for Peak Performance

Okay.

#101 Dr. Andy Galpin: The Optimal Diet, Supplement, & Recovery Protocol for Peak Performance

So if that is your preference, then we can go back up a little bit to beet or beetroot juice.

#101 Dr. Andy Galpin: The Optimal Diet, Supplement, & Recovery Protocol for Peak Performance

But that's not a strong argument.

#101 Dr. Andy Galpin: The Optimal Diet, Supplement, & Recovery Protocol for Peak Performance

Probably like 15 years ago, I had a friend who, you know, actually you met before.

Who did this?

FoundMyFitness
#101 Dr. Andy Galpin: The Optimal Diet, Supplement, & Recovery Protocol for Peak Performance

And he would blend beets, like in a blender.

Like you could call it a smoothie, but he would like juice it and blend it and he would do a combination.

FoundMyFitness

It was probably like eight to 10 whole beets he would consume pre-workout.

And he did it about three times, I think.

FoundMyFitness

And two of the three times he just threw up everywhere.

And then he's like red blood.

FoundMyFitness
#101 Dr. Andy Galpin: The Optimal Diet, Supplement, & Recovery Protocol for Peak Performance

You can.

FoundMyFitness

It's a dosage issue though.

FoundMyFitness
#101 Dr. Andy Galpin: The Optimal Diet, Supplement, & Recovery Protocol for Peak Performance

Will you get a small benefit?

FoundMyFitness
#101 Dr. Andy Galpin: The Optimal Diet, Supplement, & Recovery Protocol for Peak Performance

I can't.

FoundMyFitness
#101 Dr. Andy Galpin: The Optimal Diet, Supplement, & Recovery Protocol for Peak Performance

I've never personally felt like a blood flow benefit from eating a bunch of beets.

FoundMyFitness
#101 Dr. Andy Galpin: The Optimal Diet, Supplement, & Recovery Protocol for Peak Performance

Personally, some people say that they do, but you wouldn't get the dosage.

FoundMyFitness
#101 Dr. Andy Galpin: The Optimal Diet, Supplement, & Recovery Protocol for Peak Performance

That's why they're juiced.

FoundMyFitness
#101 Dr. Andy Galpin: The Optimal Diet, Supplement, & Recovery Protocol for Peak Performance

That's why they're concentrated.

Okay, so you're probably pretty aware of nitric oxide metabolism.
