Description

Designing an experiment well is crucial to getting results that you can rely on. In this film for the Physiological Society, Greg Foot explores the idea that Beetroot has an effect on the body. Dr Valerie Gladwell and some students from the University of Essex put Greg through his paces after designing an experiment to test whether drinking beetroot juice can improve stamina, and discuss the benefits and limitations of different experimental designs.
