Not a bad Beet !
Well, I am not a health expert. I know that all you hear about today on the TV/Cable is the benefits of BEETS. So, I started taking these Beet Root Capsules - Beetroot Powder Supports Natural Performance and Energy, Digestive, Immune System - 1300mg Per Serving, Non-GMO & Gluten Free - 120 Organic Beetroot Powder Extract Capsulesese, so I can attempt to be healthy. This brand is a good buy, it's going for around $22.00 for a 2 month supply(120pills 2a day). That is about 1/2 the price of the stuff you see on the TV. And it is not old stock stuff, the bottle I got has a shelf life of 01 of 2023. I have been taking a beet supplement for over 2 months, easy to swallow, no bad taste, and have found, for me, it has helped

these taste terrible..and they should not have a taste...not doing what they promised
I started to take these because my Dr. stated that it was one of things that had science behind it in the fight to lower blood pressure. So I decided to add this to my blood pressure regiment and give it a week or so. I have to say that these have a bitter, terrible taste to them even though they are capsules. They also smell bitter.As for effectiveness...I can say that at least for me, i have not noticed any benefit in taking these..and in fact...though I am not sure that I can pin this on this supplement because there are so many variables, but my blood pressure actually has been higher since I started taking these. I will give it until the end of the bottle and if there becomes a noticeable improvement then I will change this review and report it.

Great as always
I usually take them in the morning with my coffee or before a workout and as always they are nice and help with circulation, no bad flavors or hard to swallow, very nice.

Easy, flavorless way to consume beets; wish it was more clear on vitamins and minerals in powder
Beets are a super food and are supposed to be good for things like blood pressure. Consuming them in supplement form, whether it be a capsule or a mixed into a drink in crystal or powder form, is one way to get some of these benefits without having to eat a bunch of beets. Beets have a distinct flavor that not everyone likes. I, for one, rather strongly dislike the flavor of beets, though my wife and kids enjoy them. Beets also are very good at staining things reddish pink. Depending on the supplements, you can get around some of these issues. As these are capsules, you’re not really going to taste anything. They are somewhat large capsules, though. While I’m fine swallowing them, I did try dropping one in a drink to see if it would dissolve. The capsule disappeared, and the powder did not sink to the bottom, so it would seem that this would be a viable way to consume these without swallowing.I’m not sure if the health benefits from this are so great, though, given that it’s hard to know if what’s contained in a capsule amounts to a whole lot. However, I suppose every little bit helps.Beets are high in oxalates, which can contribute to or worsen calcium-based kidney stones, so if you are prone to kidney stones, you may want to avoid this.The label only lists that the capsules contain beet root powder. Unfortunately, it does not list how much of various vitamins and minerals are contained in that powder, though the page states that beet root powder is full of various things, implying that you’ll get those things by consuming these pills. Well, there are many things that if taken in too great a quantity could cause toxicity, and there are many things that people with various medical conditions should take more or less of. For example, most people do not get enough potassium. Beets have potassium. However, there are people with certain medical conditions, particularly involving kidneys, that mean that someone needs to limit their consumption of potassium. So, do these capsules contain potassium or not?

The next miracle supplement??
I tried this one because I ran out of my old brand. While the jury is still out on beet root, I am still trying it for the rest of this year to see if there is any health improvement. This one seems to be a "no-frills" version with no listed extra additives to improve efficacy... and I can see no difference from similar previous versions that I have tried.Unfortunately, at about 19USD for a 60day supply, it is also a bit expensive at almost twice the price of other brands. I am rating this three stars, as it is "no frills" and expensive... though I am assuming that it is doing whatever beetroot supplements do. As always, your mileage and preferences may vary...

Good product
These are easy to swallow and your typical 1300mg potency. They are pricey though.

It is working so far to help balance my blood pressure.
I am taking this and also lots of grapefruit juice and my high blood pressure have dropped to the point I didn't need to start any prescription drugs related to blood pressure. So far so good. I dish the coffee and all this seems to to help me.
