What Is Beetroot Powder/Extract?​​

Beetroot powder is made by dehydrating and grinding fresh beets, while extracts concentrate active compounds (e.g., ​betanin, ​nitrates). Its core value lies in:


​Exceptionally high inorganic nitrate (NO₃⁻) content—surpassing spinach/leafy greens.

​Betanin: A potent antioxidant pigment.

​Micronutrients: Vitamin C, folate, potassium, magnesium.

​Key Role: Nature’s Nitric Oxide (NO) Engine​

Beetroot nitrates boost NO through a unique pathway:


​Oral bacterial conversion:

NO₃⁻、 (oral anaerobes)、 nitrite (NO₂⁻).

​Gastric/blood conversion:

NO₂⁻、 (stomach acid/enzymes)、 nitric oxide (NO).

→ ​Bypasses the arginine pathway​ for ​stable, sustained NO release!​​

​5 Science-Backed Benefits​

​1、Cardiovascular Boost​

​Lowers BP: Nitrate-derived NO reduces systolic pressure by ​4–10 mmHg​ (especially in prehypertension).

​Improves endothelial function: Slows atherosclerosis, lowers clot risk.


​2、Athletic Performance Enhancer​

​5–9% lower oxygen demand: NO optimizes mitochondrial efficiency.

​15–25% longer endurance: Delays fatigue in running/cycling.


​3、Anti-Inflammatory & Antioxidant Shield​

​Betanin scavenges free radicals​ (8x stronger than vitamin C).

​Inhibits TNF-α, protecting liver/brain cells.


​4、Brain Blood Flow & Cognition​

​NO enhances cerebral oxygenation, improving executive function in seniors.

​May delay neurodegeneration​ (e.g., early Alzheimer’s intervention).


​5、Detox & Metabolic Support​

​Nitrates improve gastric mucosal blood flow, strengthening gut barrier.

​Animal studies show enhanced insulin sensitivity.
