Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if taking a beetroot juice supplement will work in people living with Alzheimer's disease. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Can people living with Alzheimer's disease realistically drink beetroot juice regularly (for example, is it easy to take, free from side effects and acceptable)?
* Does drinking beetroot juice twice a day improve health in people living with Alzheimer's disease?

Researchers will look at how you managed with the beetroot juice, as well as if there were any improvements in your health measures.

Participants will:

* Complete testing before and after the intervention for no more than 3 hours each time
* Complete a 1-day food diary before testing
* Take a beetroot juice supplementation twice daily for 1-week
* Keep a note of any problems with the beetroot juice
