I just did a quick search and found that beet juice helps with iron absorption and is high in iron. Interesting as I have a daughter who is an endurance athlete and has issues with low ferritin.
We'll have to talk to her doctor about it.

I had to complete walking tests and tests on a recumbent bicycle while they measured my VO2 intake. Sorry, I can't share any more information about the study at this time.
