Hi,
Thank you for your query.
I have been unable to understand your concern of beetroot ice cube and excess nitrate. I shall be grateful if you can provide more details about it.
Your son can be restless due to the illness which he had about a week. It shall take some time for him to be normal.
I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.
Wishing your son all the best.
