SuperBeets is a supplement made from beets, which are dehydrated into crystals. Beets are rich in nitrates, which your body converts into nitric oxide. This compound can offer health benefits like protecting cells and relaxing blood vessels, potentially lowering blood pressure and improving circulation.
SuperBeets aims to provide these benefits without the need to consume beet juice or whole beets. Created by HumanN, a company founded by leading scientists in nitric oxide research, SuperBeets uses patented technology to preserve nitrates, maximizing nitric oxide release. HumanN claims that one teaspoon of SuperBeets equals the nitric oxide content of three beets, though exact measurements aren’t available.
Nutritionally, SuperBeets contains 15 calories, 0 grams of fat, 4 grams of carbohydrates, 1 gram of protein, 65 mg of sodium (3% DV), 160 mg of calcium (5% DV), 10 mg of magnesium (2.2% DV), and 50 mg of vitamin C (83% DV). The original flavor is made from non-GMO U.S.-grown beets, beetroot powder, natural apple flavor, malic acid, magnesium ascorbate, and Stevia leaf. The black cherry version swaps apple flavor for black cherry.
SuperBeets Heart Chews come in a one-month supply of 60 chews, with each serving being two chews. Ingredients like grape seed extract and beetroot powder are generally safe with minimal side effects, though some people may experience beeturia, a harmless pinkish-red urine color.
Before trying SuperBeets Chews, consult a doctor, especially if you have high blood pressure or are on blood pressure or blood-thinning medications. The product’s blood pressure-lowering effects could be significant when combined with such medications. Proton pump inhibitors, which reduce stomach acid, might interfere with the conversion of dietary nitrates to nitric oxide.
For those with type 2 diabetes or who avoid added sugars, note that each serving contains 4 grams of added sugar from tapioca syrup and cane sugar. While HumanN claims to test its GSE for purity and safety, no independent third-party testing labels were found.
