Beetroot Powder

Beetroot powder is the easiest way to turn beetroot into a daily pre-workout or energy drink. Our Power Beets drink mix blends beetroot with BCAAs, L-Arginine, L-Carnitine and resveratrol for stamina, blood flow and recovery. Just mix one scoop in water, in Mix Berry or Watermelon Mint flavour.

What is beetroot powder?

Beetroot powder is beetroot that has been dried and milled, or juiced and then dried, into a fine powder. It keeps the dietary nitrates, betalain pigments and minerals of fresh beets in a form that lasts for months and mixes in seconds.

There are two kinds you will see in India. The plain version is used in cooking and face packs. A beetroot drink mix like Power Beets is designed as a supplement, with a measured scoop and extra ingredients that support the same goal.

What is in Power Beets?

Power Beets is more than plain dried beet. Each scoop combines beetroot with four supporting ingredients.

• Beetroot. What it does: Dietary nitrates that your body turns into nitric oxide. Learn more: Beetroot page.
• BCAAs. What it does: Amino acids that support muscle recovery. Learn more: BCAAs page.
• L-Arginine. What it does: An amino acid that also feeds the nitric oxide pathway. Learn more: L-Arginine page.
• L-Carnitine. What it does: Helps carry fatty acids into cells to be used for energy. Learn more: L-Carnitine page.
• Resveratrol. What it does: A grape-derived antioxidant. Learn more: Resveratrol.

You can read about each one on our pages for BCAAs, L-Arginine and L-Carnitine. The formula is vegan and contains no caffeine.

What are the benefits of beetroot powder?

People take it mainly as a natural pre-workout and for steady daytime energy. The nitrates support blood flow, while the amino acids support training and recovery.

• Stamina in workouts. Better oxygen delivery can help you train longer.
• Blood flow. Nitric oxide helps blood vessels relax.
• Recovery. BCAAs support muscle recovery after exercise.
• Caffeine-free energy. No jitters and no crash, even in the evening.

Which Power Beets flavour should you choose?

Both flavours use the same formula. Choose the flavour you will enjoy every day.

Mix Berry

Beetroot powder in Mix Berry has a sweet, fruity taste that hides the earthy flavour of beets. It is our most popular flavour.

Watermelon Mint

The beetroot drink mix in Watermelon Mint is lighter and more refreshing. Many people prefer it in Indian summers.

Value packs

If you take it daily, the Power Beets powder pack of 3 and the Power Beets drink mix combo work out cheaper per serving.

How do you use beetroot powder?

Mix one scoop into 250ml of cold water and shake well. Drink it in the morning or 60 to 90 minutes before training.

Ideas beyond water

1. Pre-workout shaker: Add one scoop to water with a pinch of salt for a simple sports drink.
2. Smoothie: Blend with banana, curd and a few berries.
3. Lemonade: Mix into nimbu pani for a pink, tangy cooler.
4. Stack: Add Cordyceps powder to the same shaker for extra stamina support.

How long does beetroot powder take to work?

You can feel the pre-workout effect in a single session. For daily circulation benefits, give it 8 to 12 weeks.

Is it good in Indian summers?

Yes. Many people drink it chilled in summer as a lighter alternative to sugary sports drinks. Add ice, a squeeze of lemon and a pinch of black salt for a refreshing pre-workout or mid-afternoon cooler. Drink plenty of plain water through the day too, especially if you train outdoors.

Can teenagers or older adults use it?

It is designed for adults. Older adults can use it, but should check with their doctor first if they take blood pressure or heart medicine.

How should you store it?

Keep the tub tightly closed in a cool, dry place and always use a dry scoop. Moisture is what makes the powder clump.

Beetroot powder or beetroot capsules: which is better?

Neither is better. They suit different routines.

• How you take it. Beetroot powder: Mix one scoop in water. Beetroot capsules: Swallow capsules.
• Taste. Beetroot powder: Mix Berry or Watermelon Mint. Beetroot capsules: None.
• Extra ingredients. Beetroot powder: BCAAs, L-Arginine, L-Carnitine, resveratrol. Beetroot capsules: L-Arginine, grape seed extract.
• Best for. Beetroot powder: Pre-workout drinks and adjustable dose. Beetroot capsules: A fixed daily habit with no prep.

If you prefer no mixing at all, see our beetroot capsules.

Why add amino acids to a beetroot drink?

Beetroot on its own supports blood flow. Adding amino acids turns it into a more complete training drink. BCAAs (leucine, isoleucine and valine) are the amino acids most linked with muscle recovery. L-Arginine adds a second route to nitric oxide, and L-Carnitine helps your body use fat for energy during longer sessions.

This means one scoop covers the three things most people want before and after exercise: blood flow, energy and recovery. You do not need a separate pre-workout and a separate BCAA drink.

What does a beetroot powder routine look like?

On training days, mix one scoop in cold water and drink it 60 to 90 minutes before your session. On rest days, have it mid-morning as an energy drink instead of a second cup of tea or coffee. Keep the timing the same for a few weeks so you can judge how your stamina changes.

Many people track one simple number, such as how long they can run or cycle at a comfortable pace, before and after four weeks. That is a more honest test than how you feel on a single day.

Who should take beetroot powder?

It suits adults who already enjoy a daily drink. It is popular with:

• Gym-goers and runners who want a caffeine-free pre-workout.
• People who work long hours and want a mid-morning energy drink.
• Vegans looking for a plant-based recovery drink with BCAAs.
• People who dislike swallowing capsules.

Is beetroot powder safe?

It is safe for most healthy adults at the label dose. It can turn urine or stools pink or red, which is harmless.
