This page has two jobs. First, it explains everything printed on the tub of black-cherry beet root powder we sell: what each ingredient is, and what the research does and does not say about it, including who was in each study, at what amount, and what each study actually measured. Second, and this is the part most advertising pages leave out, it lists the headlines we run about the heart and circulation, tells you which ones are exaggerated, and separates the small number of things that are genuinely supported by evidence from the many that are not.
You almost certainly arrived here from an advertisement. The headline you clicked was written by us and paid for by us to appear next to real news stories. It was designed to make you stop scrolling. Several of our headlines overstate what the science actually shows, and a few attribute statements to experts who do not exist.
Everything on this site is a paid advertisement for a product we sell. If you buy through a link on any of our pages, we are paid a commission. That is the reason this site exists.
The product is a tub of black-cherry beet root powder, SuperBeets Heart Powder, Black Cherry, 5.3 oz (150 g), made by Human Power of N Company (Humann) of Austin, Texas and sold by the same company through its own online store as a dietary supplement (so says the front of the tub, although its official panel is a food-style Nutrition Facts panel). One serving is one level teaspoon (5 g) stirred into 4 to 6 ounces of water, once a day, drunk right after mixing and not mixed with juice or a smoothie. It is not meant for any health problem, and no study has ever tested this product itself. No food, drink or supplement on this page is a substitute for your own clinician.
If you are genuinely concerned about your heart or your circulation, the most useful thing you can do is book a visit with your own clinician. A yearly check measures things that no advertisement, no home test and no product can, and it costs you nothing from us. We would rather you close this page and make that call than buy something under a false impression.
If you take anything daily, show the label of this powder to your pharmacist before the first serving.
These are the headlines we have run, grouped by the claim they make. The right-hand column is our own plain assessment. We have marked each one as Exaggerated, Partly true, Our headline was wrong or Broadly supported.
| The headline as you saw it | What is actually behind it |
|---|---|
| "Beet Powder: Why Men Over 60 Are Stirring a Spoonful Into Water" | Partly true Beet root is sold for its dietary nitrate. About 80% of the nitrate we eat comes from vegetables, and the body turns part of it into nitrite, and from there into nitric oxide, a molecule involved in how blood vessels widen. [1] That part is real, and it has a step the headline skips: bacteria on the back of the tongue turn nitrate returned in saliva into nitrite, [2] and strong antibacterial mouth rinses blunted that step in two small studies. [3] [4] The studies behind the story used juice and whole foods, not a spoonful. Half a liter of beetroot juice a day for six days made walking take about a fifth less oxygen in nine fit young men, [5] and a single day of nitrate-rich food with juice changed blood flow in one region of the brain in older adults averaging about 75. [6] A spoonful of powder reaches those amounts only if the label prints its nitrate and the figure matches. This label prints no nitrate figure. "Men over 60 are stirring" is our phrase, not a survey. |
| "The 20-Minute Walk That Beats 10,000 Steps" | Partly true The useful half: 10,000 steps a day is popular advice, not a guideline, and the federal activity guidelines use a 20-minute walk as their own worked example of setting a daily goal. [7] The overstated half is "beats". The guidelines set a weekly range of 150 to 300 minutes of moderate activity such as brisk walking, plus muscle-strengthening on two or more days, [8] and bouts of any length count toward it. [7] A 20-minute walk every day adds up to 140 minutes a week, just under the bottom of that range: a fine start, not a finish line. See section 5. |
| "The Salt Swap Men Over 60 Are Making at Breakfast" | Broadly supported The broad idea holds. Americans eat on average about 3,400 mg of sodium a day against a limit of less than 2,300 mg, about one teaspoon of table salt, [9] and that limit applies to everyone 14 and older, not only after 60. [10] What we got wrong is the shaker. Over 70% of sodium comes from packaged and prepared foods, so the swap that matters is at the label, where 5% of the Daily Value or less per serving is low and 20% or more is high. [9] The powder we sell: each teaspoon has 65 mg of sodium, 3% of the Daily Value, which counts as low by the label guide above. |
| "Your Pulse Says More Than You Think. Take the 10-Second Wrist Test" | Our headline was wrong There is no 10-second wrist test. Counting your pulse is a real skill: two fingers below the base of the thumb, counting for a full minute or for 30 seconds and doubling, and for adults a resting rate of 60 to 100 beats a minute is considered normal. [11] A count tells you a count, and counting for ten seconds and multiplying by six only makes a one-beat slip six times bigger. See section 4. |
| "Can You Climb 4 Flights of Stairs in a Minute? What It Means After 60" | Exaggerated Stairs are good activity, and the activity guidelines say even climbing a few flights counts toward your week. [7] A stopwatch on a staircase, read against a number in an advertisement, means nothing: fitness, knees, the height of the steps and last night all change the time. The guidelines ask older adults to judge their effort against their own fitness, not against a stranger's number. [12] If stairs feel different from how they felt a few months ago, mention it at your next visit. |
| "The Red Tea Men Over 60 Are Drinking Every Morning" | Partly true The red tea is hibiscus: the dried red calyces of a tropical flower, brewed tart and deep red, with no caffeine of its own. It is a real drink with a long place in many kitchens, used hot and cold. [13] The powder we sell contains no hibiscus, so its studies are not part of this guide. What we made up is the crowd. We have no count of men over 60 drinking it every morning, and "every morning" was chosen because it sounds like a habit you are missing. |
| "The Old Hedge Berry Europeans Have Brewed for Centuries Is Back" | Exaggerated The hedge berry is hawthorn, and the "centuries" part is fair: its berries, leaves and flowers have a long place in European herbal tradition. "Is back" suggests a new finding, and there is none behind that word; it was written to sound like news. The powder we sell contains no hawthorn, so we make no claim for it here. Tradition is the reason a plant gets studied, not a result. |
| "CoQ10 After 60: What Your Body Makes Less Of" | Partly true Coenzyme Q10 is real, and your body makes its own: it is needed to turn the energy in carbohydrates and fats into the form cells use, and its level in several tissues falls gradually with age, though it is unclear whether that amounts to a shortage. [14] What the headline skips is the jump from "the body makes it" to "a softgel tops it up". Whether an amount you swallow changes anything you would notice is a separate question, and the powder we sell contains no CoQ10 at all. "After 60" is our framing: no birthday switches it off. |
| "Olive Leaf: The Mediterranean Leaf Behind a New Morning Habit" | Exaggerated The Mediterranean eating pattern is food on a plate: three to nine servings of vegetables a day, fruit, cereals, fish, and olive oil for much of its fat. [15] An extract of the olive tree's leaf is not that pattern, it is not olive oil, and it is not a meal. Olive leaf has its own research, and the powder we sell contains none of it; borrowing the reputation of a whole way of eating for a leaf extract was our shortcut, not the evidence. See section 3. |
An honest answer: these headlines appear beside real news stories, competing for attention with everything else on the page, and dramatic phrasing gets clicked. That is the incentive, and we are subject to it like every other advertiser.
It is also why this page exists. Once you are here, you are entitled to know exactly which claims we can stand behind and which ones were written to get your attention. Everything below is the sober version.
Our headlines have pointed at "the red tea" and a spoonful of beet, and other versions at a morning cup, often without naming them. Here is each drink we were pointing at, and what the sources actually support. Where a study is cited, we say who was in it and what it measured; a short-term measurement in a small group is not a health outcome.
The morning cup in many advertisements · No reason in our sources to give it up
What the research says. The US Food and Drug Administration cites 400 mg of caffeine a day, about two to three 12-ounce cups of brewed coffee, as an amount not generally associated with negative effects in most healthy adults; a 12-ounce cup holds 113 to 247 mg, and too much can bring a faster heartbeat, jitters, an upset stomach, a headache and a poor night. [16] The European safety panel reached a similar place: single doses up to 200 mg and daily intakes up to 400 mg raise no safety concerns for healthy adults. [17]
Honest verdict. If you enjoy plain coffee, keep it, earlier in the day. What goes into the cup, syrups and sugar, deserves more attention than the coffee.
About the product we sell. The panel prints no caffeine line, and none of its six ingredients is a source of caffeine.
The other morning cup · A real short-term measurement, in small studies
What the research says. Green, black and oolong teas come from the same plant, and green tea contains caffeine. [18] In 21 healthy women, both green and black tea made the arm artery widen more easily two hours after drinking than water did, by about the same amount. [19] A meta-analysis of nine studies found the same direction at about 500 ml a day, two to three cups, with results that varied widely, and all three of its authors worked for a company that sells tea. [20] In one small study of 16 women, adding 10% skimmed milk erased that short-term effect. [21]
Honest verdict. A pleasant habit with a real, short-lived measurement behind it. It is not a health outcome, and it is no reason to choose a supplement over a teapot. One study of 16 people is not a rule about milk.
The "red tea" in our headlines · Not in the powder we sell
What the research says. Hibiscus is brewed from the dried red calyces of Hibiscus sabdariffa: tart, deep red and without caffeine of its own. A 2014 review describes it as used traditionally as a food, in hot and cold drinks and as a flavoring, with an excellent safety and tolerability record, and calls for more careful trials. [13]
Honest verdict. A good caffeine-free cup, hot or iced. The powder we sell contains no hibiscus. If you take anything daily, show the box to your pharmacist first.
The drink behind the "nitric oxide" and "beet powder" headlines · Real measurements, at juice-sized amounts, and a step in the mouth
What the research says. About 80% of dietary nitrate comes from vegetables, and the body turns part of it into nitrite with the help of bacteria in the mouth. [1] In nine healthy, physically active young men, half a liter of beetroot juice a day for six days raised plasma nitrite and made walking take about a fifth less oxygen than a juice stripped of its nitrate. [5] In older adults averaging about 75, a single day of nitrate-rich food that included beet juice left overall blood flow to the brain unchanged and raised it in one frontal region on a scan. [6] About 20 to 28% of a nitrate load returns in saliva, bacteria on the back third of the tongue turn it into nitrite, and plasma nitrite peaks about three hours later; volunteers who spat out their saliva after beet juice had no rise at all. [2] In 12 healthy men who drank 140 ml of beet juice, about 520 mg of nitrate, nitrite stayed smaller with stronger antibacterial rinses than with water. [4] In 10 young men, 70 ml of concentrated juice, about 260 mg of nitrate, did not change their cycling, while 140 and 280 ml did. [22]
Honest verdict. The studies used glasses of juice and plates of vegetables, with the nitrate counted. A teaspoon of powder is a different amount unless its label prints a nitrate figure that matches, and the tub we sell prints none. Beet can turn urine pink or red; that is reported in about 10 to 14% of people. [23] If you use a strong antibacterial mouth rinse, ask your dentist about it rather than acting on this page.
The evening glass · Less is better
What the research says. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2025–2030, advise consuming less alcohol for better overall health, and say it should be avoided entirely by people who take anything daily that can interact with it. [24]
Honest verdict. Cutting back is sound advice, and nothing we sell offsets a drink. If you drink heavily every day, do not stop abruptly on your own: ask your clinician how to cut back.
Part of every "drinks to avoid" headline · Broadly supported
What the research says. The same guidelines advise avoiding sugar-sweetened beverages such as sodas, fruit drinks and energy drinks, keeping fruit or vegetable juice to limited portions or diluting it with water, and keeping any one meal to no more than 10 grams of added sugars. [24]
Honest verdict. The easiest swap on this page: water, sparkling water, or unsweetened tea or coffee.
About the product we sell. Each teaspoon has 3 g of sugars, all from the beet, and 0 g of added sugars; a stevia leaf extract sweetens it.
The drink our ads rarely name · The caffeine and sugar add up fast
What the research says. A 16-ounce energy drink can carry 70 to 240 mg of caffeine and an energy shot 113 to 200 mg, against about 100 mg in an 8-ounce cup of coffee, and a 16-ounce can may hold 54 to 62 grams of added sugar; large amounts of caffeine can raise heart rate. [25]
Honest verdict. One can may carry more caffeine than two 8-ounce cups of coffee and more than five meals' worth of the per-meal sugar limit above. Worth leaving on the shelf, at any age.
The drink our headlines never name · The cheapest move on this page
What the research says. A 2005 report of the National Academies set the Adequate Intake for total water, from drinks and food together, at 3.7 liters a day for men aged 19 to 30, about 3.0 liters of it from drinks; day-to-day intake driven by thirst and drinks at meals keeps hydration normal, and coffee and tea still count toward the total. [26] The current guidelines say to choose water, still or sparkling, and unsweetened drinks. [24]
Honest verdict. It costs nothing and cannot be sold in a powder. We leave it out of our advertising for the obvious reason, and we are putting it back in here.
We do not print a list, and you should not act on one from an advertisement. Do not stop, cut back on or skip anything a clinician gave you because of this page or any of our headlines.
Put everything you take, including what you buy over the counter, into one bag with this powder and take it to your pharmacist. Ask: "Is anything here a poor fit at my age, and does anything here argue with this?" Beet powder is sold for its dietary nitrate, which the body turns into a widener of blood vessels, so if you take anything daily, show the tub to your pharmacist before the first glass. Beet can also color urine pink or red, and it is among the higher-oxalate vegetables.
The food headlines referred to a salt swap, a Mediterranean leaf and "nitric oxide", and other versions to foods to avoid after 60. Here is what was meant, and what stands behind it.
The "salt swap" · Broadly supported
What the research says. Americans eat on average about 3,400 mg of sodium a day against a limit of less than 2,300 mg, about one teaspoon of table salt; over 70% of it comes from packaged and prepared foods, and the top sources include deli-meat sandwiches, pizza, burritos and tacos, soups and savory snacks. [9] The limit applies to everyone 14 and older, and the guidelines add that highly active people may need more sodium to offset sweat. [10]
Honest verdict. Read the sodium line: 5% of the Daily Value or less per serving is low, 20% or more is high. [9] Cooking more at home moves the number further than any shaker.
Behind every "foods to avoid" headline · Broadly supported
What the research says. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2025–2030, advise avoiding highly processed packaged, prepared or ready-to-eat foods that are salty or sweet, such as chips, cookies and candy, [10] and swapping deep-fried cooking for baked, broiled, roasted, stir-fried or grilled. [27]
Honest verdict. Worth moderating, as a pattern rather than a ban. Not undone by any supplement, including ours.
Where most dietary nitrate comes from · Real measurements, in small studies
What the research says. Two day-long menus built on the same vegetable-rich eating plan delivered anywhere from 174 mg to 1,222 mg of nitrate, depending only on which vegetables and fruits were chosen. [1] In 30 healthy men and women, a single meal with nitrate-rich spinach raised markers of nitric oxide in the blood and was followed by a greater widening of the arm artery on ultrasound than a comparison meal. [28] In a 2013 review of vegetables by average nitrate, rocket led at about 2,597 mg per kg, followed by spinach, lettuce and radish, with beetroot at about 1,459; an 80 g portion of beet came to about 117 mg. [29] The guidelines set a goal of 3 servings of vegetables and 2 of fruit a day on a 2,000-calorie pattern. [27]
Honest verdict. A plate of vegetables is the original nitric oxide product, and it comes with fiber and potassium that no powder copies.
The mineral printed beside sodium on the label · Food first
What the research says. The Adequate Intake of potassium is 3,400 mg a day for men and 2,600 mg for women, and the listed sources include beans, lentils, tomatoes, potatoes with the skin, sweet potatoes, soy, winter squash, citrus fruits, cantaloupe, bananas, kiwi, prunes, apricots, milk, yogurt, nuts, meats and fish. [30]
Honest verdict. Get it from food. Ask before a potassium supplement, especially if you take anything daily. [30]
The "omega-3" food behind many headlines · Supported as food
What the research says. A 3-ounce cooked serving of farmed Atlantic salmon carries about 1.24 g of DHA and 0.59 g of EPA, Atlantic herring 0.94 g and 0.77 g, and sardines canned in tomato sauce 0.74 g and 0.45 g, against about 0.17 g and 0.02 g in light tuna canned in water. [31] The guidelines name omega-3-rich seafood among sources of healthy fat, [27] and the side effects of omega-3 supplements are usually mild, such as an unpleasant taste, heartburn or an upset stomach. [32]
Honest verdict. Two fish meals a week is a habit, not a purchase.
Behind the "Mediterranean leaf" headline · The pattern is supported as a pattern
What the research says. A review that defined the Mediterranean pattern in numbers described three to nine servings of vegetables, half to two of fruit, one to thirteen of cereals and up to eight servings of olive oil a day, with about 33 g of fiber. [15] The current guidelines name olive oil first among the oils to cook with. [27]
Honest verdict. The pattern is a whole kitchen, not an extract. If the Mediterranean idea is what interested you, the olive oil and the vegetables are in the grocery store.
Drink more plain water. Drink less alcohol and fewer sugary drinks. Keep your coffee or tea if you enjoy them, earlier in the day, and go easy on what you stir into them. Read the sodium line on packaged food. Eat more vegetables, beans, fruit, fish and olive oil, and less from the fryer and the snack aisle. Every one of those changes costs nothing extra, and none of them requires anything we sell.
Several of our headlines invite you to test yourself at home: count your pulse for ten seconds, time yourself on four flights of stairs, take "the 10-second test". None of them is a validated test, and we cannot give you a real one, because a real check does not work that way.
What a home count can honestly tell you. Three things, and only these:
Of the eight components in the American Heart Association's own scoring, four are daily habits and four are measurements of the body that are best checked with a clinician. [35] No count, stopwatch or quiz on an advertising page can stand in for those.
If our headline worried you, take the worry to your own clinician at your next visit, or sooner if something has changed. If it was only a startling headline, the reassurance you want cannot come from a test in an advertisement, including ours.
If we only had one section to be useful in, this would be it. None of these is a supplement or a list of three foods, and none of them can be sold to you by us.
These are unglamorous. They cannot be delivered in a headline, they take years, and they are, by a wide margin, the most useful things on this entire page.
What each ingredient printed on the label of SuperBeets Heart Powder, Black Cherry, 5.3 oz (150 g) is, what it is traditionally used for, and what the cited research says, including who was in each study, at what amount, for how long, and what each study actually measured. One serving is one level teaspoon (5 g) stirred into 4 to 6 ounces of water, once a day, drunk right after mixing and not mixed with juice or a smoothie. The panel, line by line: per teaspoon (5 g): 15 calories; total fat 0 g; sodium 65 mg (3% DV); total carbohydrate 4 g (1% DV); total sugars 3 g, including 0 g added sugars; protein 1 g (2% DV); potassium 160 mg (3% DV); vitamin C 50 mg (56% DV); magnesium 18 mg (4% DV); manganese 0.14 mg (6% DV). Ingredients: beet root powder, fermented beet root powder, black cherry flavor, malic acid, magnesium ascorbate and rebaudioside A (from stevia leaf). No nitrate or nitrite amount is printed. Three plain notes on that panel. The two beet powders, the reason the tub exists, carry no amount of their own and no nitrate or nitrite figure. The front of the tub says "Dietary Supplement" while the official panel is a food-style "Nutrition Facts" panel, and the text of the online listing gives 40 calories per teaspoon where the panel image gives 15. No study has tested these ingredients together, or this powder.
The dried, ground root of the garden beet: the same deep-red vegetable that stains a cutting board, sold as a powder because it is rich in dietary nitrate, which the body turns into nitrite and nitric oxide, a widener of blood vessels.
Traditional and everyday use. Eaten as a vegetable across Europe and the Middle East for centuries; beet juice became a sports drink in the 2010s for its nitrate.
What the research says. In a small crossover study of older adults, a single day of a high-nitrate diet that included beet juice was associated with higher regional blood flow in the frontal white matter on MRI, with no change in overall brain blood flow.[6] That was a day of nitrate-rich food and juice, not a serving of powder, and it measured blood flow only. Beetroot averaged about 1,459 mg of nitrate per kg in a 2013 table of vegetables, below rocket, spinach and lettuce; an 80 g portion comes to about 117 mg.[29] The body turns that nitrate into nitrite with the help of bacteria at the back of the tongue, and an antibacterial mouthwash blunts that step.[3] [2] In young men, half a litre of beet juice a day for six days made walking take less oxygen;[5] in healthy older adults the results are mixed.[38] [39] [40]
Amount per serving in SuperBeets® Heart Powder · Black Cherry · 5.3 oz (150 g). not stated (most of the 5 g teaspoon) (sold for its dietary nitrate; the label does not print how much nitrate a teaspoon holds)
Good to know. Beet powder is sold for its dietary nitrate, which the body turns into nitric oxide, a widener of blood vessels: if you take anything daily, show the label to your pharmacist before taking nitrate-rich products every day. Pink or red urine after beets is common and harmless, reported in about 10 to 14% of people.[23] Beet is among the higher-oxalate vegetables.[41]
A water-soluble vitamin found in citrus, peppers, berries and leafy greens. The body cannot make it and does not store much of it, so it has to come in with the food every day. Labels print it as ascorbic acid or bound to a mineral, as in magnesium ascorbate.
Traditional and everyday use. Citrus and fresh greens have been eaten against scurvy since the days of sailing ships.
What the research says. The Daily Value printed on US labels is 90 mg.[42] We cite no trial of vitamin C alone for this entry, which stays descriptive.
Amount per serving in SuperBeets® Heart Powder · Black Cherry · 5.3 oz (150 g). 50 mg (56% of the Daily Value)
Good to know. Amounts above about 2,000 mg a day can upset the stomach; if you take anything daily, or have been told to limit vitamin C, ask your pharmacist before taking large doses.
A mineral involved in hundreds of enzyme reactions, nerve signaling and muscle function; found in nuts, seeds, beans, whole grains and leafy greens. Labels bind it to a partner that carries it, such as glycine (bisglycinate) or ascorbic acid (magnesium ascorbate).
Traditional and everyday use. No traditional use.
What the research says. We cite no trial of magnesium for this entry. The Daily Value on US labels is 420 mg, so the amount on a label can be read as a share of it; a small handful of almonds provides about 50 mg.
Amount per serving in SuperBeets® Heart Powder · Black Cherry · 5.3 oz (150 g). 18 mg (4% of the Daily Value)
Good to know. Well tolerated at label amounts; large doses of magnesium supplements cause loose stools. If you take anything daily, or have been told to limit minerals, ask your pharmacist before adding magnesium.
A sweet-leaved shrub of the daisy family native to Paraguay and Brazil. Its leaves hold steviol glycosides, of which rebaudioside A (Reb A) is the most refined and least bitter; a purified extract is 200 to 300 times sweeter than sugar and adds no calories.
Traditional and everyday use. The Guaraní people of Paraguay have sweetened maté with the leaves for centuries; purified Reb A has been used in US foods and drinks since 2008.
What the research says. It is the sweetener, not an active ingredient; we cite no trial for it. Descriptive only.
Good to know. Purified steviol glycosides such as Reb A have been accepted by US regulators as a food sweetener since 2008; whole-leaf and crude stevia extracts have not. The licorice-like aftertaste is the most common complaint.

Things we can say honestly:
No. Those attributions were advertising language, and no named or identifiable expert has endorsed this product.
The FDA cites 400 mg of caffeine a day as an amount not generally associated with negative effects in most healthy adults. [16] Too much can bring a faster heartbeat and jitters, so keep it earlier in the day.
One small study of 16 women found that milk erased tea's short-term effect on how easily the arm artery widens. [21] One study is not a rule, so drink it the way you enjoy it.
There is no official step number, and 10,000 is popular advice. Set minutes first: 150 to 300 a week of brisk walking or similar. [7] [8]
Fast enough that you can talk but not sing. [33] In healthy adults aged 61 to 85, that began at about 100 steps a minute. [34]
Yes: count for a full minute, or for 30 seconds and double it, and 60 to 100 at rest is considered normal for adults. [11] A count is a count, not a check-up.
Yes. It is a tart flower tea with no caffeine of its own, and the powder we sell contains none of it.
The label does not print it. The seller answers questions at (855) 636-4040 and info@humann.com.
In two small studies, strong antibacterial rinses blunted the step in which tongue bacteria turn nitrate into nitrite. [3] [4] Ask your dentist before changing anything.
The panel prints no caffeine line, and none of its six ingredients is a source of caffeine. Each teaspoon has 3 g of sugars, all from the beet, and 0 g of added sugars; a stevia leaf extract sweetens it. each teaspoon has 65 mg of sodium, 3% of the Daily Value, which counts as low by the label guide above.
Possibly, so take the powder to your pharmacist before the first serving. Beet powder is sold for its dietary nitrate, which the body turns into a widener of blood vessels, so if you take anything daily, show the tub to your pharmacist before the first glass. Beet can also color urine pink or red, and it is among the higher-oxalate vegetables.

Do not take our word for it: every numbered reference below is a real, published source you can look up. Where a headline and this page disagree, believe this page.
No. Read it, close the tab and never come back, if you like.
These are the sources behind the claims marked with a number above. Most are government guidance or small, short studies. The tea meta-analysis was written by employees of a tea company; the beet juice walking study was in nine fit young men; the mouth and rinse studies had seven and twelve healthy volunteers; the tea and spinach studies measured a short-term widening of the arm artery, not a health outcome; the fact sheets are the governments' own. None of them tested this powder. We have deliberately not cited anything for the claims we describe as exaggerated, because there is nothing to cite.
Citing a study does not mean the study is about this product. The studies above tested one food, drink or ingredient at a time, in other people, at their own amounts; none of the research tested SuperBeets Heart Powder, Black Cherry, 5.3 oz (150 g), and none of it supports it.
