Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Hypothesis: Beetroot juice increases the exercise tolerance of patients with chronic lung disease.

Using the already established pulmonary rehabilitation model, we aim to split the group of 8 into 2 groups, each group taking 500ml of beetroot juice 24 hours before there class on alternate (differing) weeks to see if it improves their overall exercise tolerance.
