Beetroot (Beta vulgaris) is a nutritious and beneficial vegetable. It is available as a healthy beetroot juice and now also in our easy-to-take concentrated beetroot capsules, enabling you to enjoy the nutritional benefits of this incredible superfood vegetable and its active ingredients (including iron and betanin) every day. As our Active Beetroot capsules are a food form product, the absorption rate of nutrients is far higher compared to that of unnatural man-made vitamins and minerals, especially iron supplements (which can cause gastric problems such as constipation in many people). It can also be useful during pregnancy. Nutritional information Like other "superfoods", beetroot (and beet greens) are a rich source of potent antioxidants (e.g. Betacyanin, the pigment that gives beetroot its colour, and anthocyanadins) and nutrients, including magnesium, manganese, sodium, potassium, phosphorus, soluble fibre, calcium, iron, Vitamins A, B and C, folic acid and betaine. However, it is beetroot's capacity to absorb and store exceptionally high levels of nitrate that earns it the “super-root” title. Potential benefits Beetroot: • is thought to support the natural process of elimination • contains fibre, which is beneficial for colon health • may support the liver, spleen, gall bladder and kidneys • is naturally rich in alkaline elements • is a great addition to body cleansing and detox programmes  Among beetroot's countless benefits, it is also notably used by many athletes during times of extreme training, when high energy levels and speedy recovery are required. Our Active Beetroot capsules contain natural organic iron. This iron is non-irritating and should not cause gastric problems, such as constipation. Active Beetroot Capsules can be taken in combination with our other antioxidant supplements and food form supplements, such as Montmorency Cherry Force capsules, organic MAXvits SuperFoods  multivitamin and Organic GreeNourish Complete powder.   Ingredients per vegetable capsule: Beetroot extract (10:1)     250mg (Equivalent to 2500mg fresh beetroot) Whole beetroot powder     100mg Beetroot      50mg (Standardised to contain 0.3% betanin) In vegetable cellulose capsules Suitable for vegetarians and vegans Allergens: No known allergens Made in the United Kingdom under GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) Take 1 capsule, 1 - 3 times per day or as advised by your health practitioner.
