Beet Juice Powder, 4oz

The 3 Powerful Compounds Found in Beet Root

Hey Everyone!

The Beet Greens Juice Powder has skyrocketed to one of our top most popular juice powders. As you will see below, it has an exponential amount of nitrates compared to any other food on the planet.

And that’s just the beginning.

On top of their superior nitrate content, beet greens are dramatically more nutrient-dense than the root itself — containing approximately 192× more vitamin A, 6× more vitamin C, over 2000× more vitamin K, along with 3× more iron, 7× more calcium, 2× more potassium, and 3× more magnesium.

However, the beet roots bring a completely different strength to the table — containing 30 times more betalains, 5 times more betaine, and 7 times more folate.

And while beet greens take nitrate levels to another league entirely, the beet roots themselves are still among the top natural sources of nitrates, alongside spinach — making them powerful in their own right.

So what you really have in the beet root is a rare concentration of three of the most valuable bio-active compounds found in nature — betalains, nitrates, and betaine — each playing a unique and powerful role, which we’ll break down below.

Let’s start with the betalains — one of the most rare and powerful bio-active compounds in nature, which beets happen to be the #1 top dietary source of. These compounds are responsible for the vibrant colors of beets. The more strikingly intense the color of the beet flesh, the more concentration of these bio-active betalain compounds. When you see the deep red and golden colors of both our beet juice powders, you will know that you are getting the most bio-active betalain compounds compared to any other food in existence. The colors of our Beet Juice Powders just intoxicates your eyes.

Now what’s cool is that the red beets and the golden beets have different proportions of different kinds of betalains within them. While these different betalains share some overlapping benefits, each has unique characteristics that contribute to their health effects.

Red beets contain way more betacyanins, which produce that deep red color, while golden beets contain far more betaxanthins, creating that vibrant golden color.

This difference isn’t small either — in red beets, betacyanins dominate, making up about 75–95% of total betalains, with betaxanthins at only 5–25%. In golden beets, this ratio shifts dramatically, with betaxanthins rising to around 50–70% and betacyanins making up the remainder — giving you a completely different balance of these powerful compounds.

As seen in the study here, betacyanins, dominant in red beets, have a more complex structure that boosts their power to neutralize free radicals (like ROS) in lipid-rich tissues such as the brain, nervous system, and cell membranes. This allows betacyanins to combat chronic inflammation linked to aging, abnormal cell growth, joint discomfort, and heart problems. Betaxanthins, higher in golden beets, are water-soluble and excel at clearing free radical molecules like ROS in aqueous environments such as the blood, the fluid inside cells, and muscle tissue. This reduces acute inflammation, offers greater neuroprotective potential, supports cognitive health, and may lower the risk of age-related cognitive decline.

Both betalains also offer shared benefits, like reducing post-exercise muscle damage and inflammation for quicker recovery, shielding skin from UV damage for a radiant complexion, boosting liver detoxification enzymes to clear toxins, and supporting cellular health by stabilizing membranes and protecting DNA.

But it doesn’t stop with betalains.

Both of these beet juice powders are also among the top sources for two more powerful bio-active compounds, with very few foods coming close to their levels — nitrates and betaine.

Beets rank among the top raw vegetables for nitrate content, alongside spinach. They support brain function, help with erectile dysfunction, lower blood pressure, protect cardiovascular health, reduce inflammation, provide antioxidant benefits, and aid in muscle recovery.

This is how it works.

Nitrates in beets are reduced to nitrite in saliva by oral bacteria. Next, in the acidic stomach and bloodstream, enzymes then reduce nitrite further into nitric oxide. Nitric oxide then makes all of the magic happen within the human body.

For example, nitric oxide then acts as a vasodilator, relaxing blood vessel walls to improve blood flow. This relaxes arteries and reduces vascular resistance, which then lowers systolic and diastolic blood pressure as seen at the beet juice study here. Furthermore, the nitric oxide reduces platelet aggregation and improves endothelial function, lowering the risk of atherosclerosis and heart problems beyond just blood pressure effects.

In Erectile Dysfunction, as another example, the nitric oxide activates an enzyme in the penile vascular smooth muscle, which then promotes vasodilation and engorgement of erectile tissue. It pretty much relaxes the smooth muscle in the penile arteries and corpus cavernosum, increasing blood flow to the penis, which is essential for achieving and maintaining an erection. This mimics the exact mechanism of Viagra, which enhances nitric oxide signaling. It also improves endothelial function in penile arteries, addressing vascular-related Erectile Dysfunction.

Nitrates from beets also improve brain function, which reduces the risk of cognitive decline. Nitric Oxide also activates enzymes that are directly in the brain, which relaxes vascular smooth muscle in cerebral arteries. This improves oxygen and nutrient delivery to neurons, supporting cognitive performance. Furthermore, it enhances vasodilation in cerebral blood vessels, increasing blood flow to brain regions like the frontal lobe, which is critical for executive function and memory.

As seen in the study here, it shows the effect of a high nitrate diet on brain perfusion in older adults. Perfusion is the flow of blood to the brain, delivering oxygen and nutrients to keep it working properly. Nitrates increases cerebral perfusion in older adults, potentially reducing cognitive decline risk by enhancing neuro-vascular coupling.

The nitrates in beet juice also play a powerful role in reducing muscle soreness and improving recovery — especially as we age.

Older adults tend to feel more sore because aging reduces nitric oxide production and vascular elasticity, which limits blood flow to the muscles. At the same time, baseline inflammation is higher, and mitochondrial function declines, all of which contribute to increased fatigue and soreness.

The nitrates from beet juice mitigates all of this.

Beet nitrates restore nitric oxide levels, counteracting age-related blood flow decline. As seen at the study here, beetroot juice increased muscle blood flow and reduced soreness post-exercise in adults, which is applicable to age-related soreness. As seen at the study here, it showed dietary nitrates reduce this higher baseline inflammation, supporting muscle recovery. Lastly, at the study here, they found nitrate-rich diets improve mitochondrial efficiency in humans, combatting this muscle fatigue and soreness.

Lastly, Nitric Oxide inhibits ROS-generating enzymes, which reduce superoxide production, and scavenges ROS (reactive oxygen species), preserving cellular antioxidant reserves. This complements betalains’ direct antioxidant effects in beets, amplifying overall protection.

While spinach and beet roots are among the top foods in the world for dietary nitrates, the Beet Greens (Beet Tops) juice powder — derived from the red beet plant — takes it to another level, delivering 2–3 times more nitrates than the root itself.

And that’s significant, because the beet root is already one of the most concentrated nitrate sources on the planet.

If you are looking to relax blood vessel walls to improve blood flow in order to combat erectile disfunction, lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure, reduce the risk of cognitive decline, enhance muscle recovery, which also helps achiness in older adults, then there is no other food on the planet that even comes close to the nitrate content as in our new potent concentrated raw living Beet Greens juice powder.

The Beet Greens Juice powder is a 34:1 concentration.

This means it took 34 kilos of beet greens to make 1 kilo of beet greens juice powder.

Furthermore, it’s an absorbable raw living juice powder.

There is absolutely nothing available in mere existence with the nitrate content that this beet greens juice powder has!

Not to mention, it’s Raw Living.

Now let’s move on to this last bio-active compound, which miraculously produces SAMe out of thin air.

Beets last rare bio-active compound is called Betaine. Beets are the top vegetable source in the world for betaine, along with spinach.

What’s really cool about betaine, is that it donates methyl groups (molecular structures) to homocysteine, which produces methionine (one of the nine essential amino acid), where 70% of that methionine is then converted into SAMe. SAMe does all sorts of beneficial things for the body. The crazy part is that homocysteine is damaging to the body. It builds up in the blood and can damage blood vessels, raising cardiovascular risk. So betaine from beets converts homocysteine (a harmful thing) into an extraordinary beneficial thing methionine/SAMe, which does the most incredible things in the human body.

About 30% of methionine acts as a powerful amino acid, building proteins, boosting liver detox with glutathione, forming cysteine for extra antioxidants, and strengthening hair, skin, and nails via sulfur. The other 70% becomes SAMe, delivering these miraculous benefits below.

SAMe donates a methyl group to enzymes involved in neurotransmitter production. SAMe activates these enzymes, which produce neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine, which regulate mood. It pretty much helps your brain make “happy” chemicals, boosting mood and mental clarity. It can support cognitive performance, and mental health, particularly for low mood, with studies suggesting that it may be as effective as some antidepressants for mild-to-moderate cases.

SAMe also donates a methyl group activating enzymes involved in the synthesis and maintenance of collagen and proteoglycans, which are essential components of cartilage, aiding in joint health. Proteoglycans give cartilage its resilience and ability to absorb shock, while collagen provides structural integrity. SAMe methylation ensures proper production and stabilization of these molecules. As seen at the study here, SAMe improves joint function and reduces pain in joint discomfort, with outcomes comparable to Prescription NSAIDs but with fewer side effects.

The SAMe produced from the nutrients in beets, is also a major Longevity hack. This is big!

Beet juice’s betaine boosts SAMe, which supports cell repair, cell growth, cell detox, and even DNA repair. Cell repair promotes longevity by fixing damaged cell components like membranes, proteins, and organelles, keeping organs like the heart and brain healthy, which slows aging signs such as fatigue and cognitive decline. DNA repair maintains youthful, functional cells by correcting genetic damage. It also prevents mutations, dysfunction, and cell death, which reduces abnormal cell growth and chronic health risks. SAMe also fuels polyamine synthesis, including spermidine, which enhances autophagy, a process that cleans damaged cell parts, further slowing aging.

As you can see, our Beet Juice Powder is a longevity powerhouse. Let’s sum up the rest of SAMe’s benefits up in this final paragraph.

SAMe supports liver function by aiding detoxification and glutathione production, a potent antioxidant. It strengthens your immune system, enhancing immune defense. SAMe also methylates enzymes and receptors involved in hormone metabolism (e.g., estrogen, cortisol), balancing hormones. Lastly, it supports homocysteine metabolism, reducing vascular damage and protecting your heart by keeping blood vessels healthy.

If you are one of the 40% of Americans who have a MTHFR Mutation, then our beet juice powder is a must.

MTHFR mutations reduce folate metabolism, leading to high homocysteine, which as we discussed is a harmful molecule linked to cardiovascular problems. The Betaine in our beet juice powder lowers homocysteine by miraculously turning it into methionine, a helpful amino acid, bypassing the faulty MTHFR pathway.

So the Betaine in beets, cleans up the “bad guy” (homocysteine), helping to keep your blood vessels safe. Furthermore, all of the other bio-active compounds in beets will also help MTHFR mutation carriers. Beet juice’s folate supports methylation, nitrates improve blood flow and heart health, and betalains reduce oxidative stress and inflammation, complementing betaine’s primary homocysteine lowering effect for MTHFR mutation carriers.

On top of all of this, beets are nutrient rich, providing folate, manganese, potassium, vitamin C, iron, and magnesium, supporting overall health.

As many of you know, the taste of our red beet juice powder is absolutely exquisite. Our Golden Beet Juice Powder is just as exquisite, with a rich, smooth, golden earthy tone. The Beet Greens Juice Powder, on the other hand, is deliciously wild.

I am just absolutely addicted to every single one of our Raw Living Juice Powders. Each juice powder creates different positive chemical reactions within the human body like you’ve seen with all the beet juice powders above.

Thanks everyone for your support!

Sincerely,
Matt
