Product description
THE NITRIC OXIDE PATHWAY
Dietary nitrates (concentrated in beetroot at some of the highest levels of any vegetable) are converted by mouth bacteria → nitrite → nitric oxide (NO) in blood vessel endothelium.
- Nitric oxide relaxes and widens blood vessels (vasodilation). The result:
- Lower blood pressure (4–10 mmHg systolic reduction in multiple RCTs — comparable to some pharmaceutical interventions at lower doses)
- Improved blood flow and oxygen delivery to muscles
- Enhanced exercise endurance (time to exhaustion increases ~2–16% in studies)
- Faster post-exercise recovery
BETALAINS (the red-purple pigments):
- Betacyanin: potent antioxidant unique to beetroot. Studied for liver protection and anti-tumour properties.
- Reduces inflammatory markers (CRP, IL-6) in clinical studies
- Natural vibrant red-pink colour for smoothies, juices, hummus, and baked goods
FOLATE (20% DV per 100g powder):
Essential for DNA repair, cell growth, and pregnancy health. Rich source in powder form.
HOW TO USE:
- 1 tsp (5g) in water or juice as a daily nitrate boost
- Dips: stir into hummus or labneh for a vivid pink dip
- Pre-workout: blend into smoothies and protein shakes
- Baking & colour: natural pink for cakes, pancakes, pasta dough and Arabic sweets
- Dairy: swirl into yoghurt, laban or labneh
- Dressings: a colourful salad-dressing base
STORAGE:
Sealed airtight container, cool dry place away from light. Freeze-dried — highly hygroscopic. 24 months sealed.

Sign UpMultiple RCTs demonstrate dietary nitrates from beetroot reduce systolic blood pressure by 4–10 mmHg. Mechanism: nitrates → nitrite → nitric oxide → vasodilation (smooth muscle of blood vessel walls relaxes). Effect is acute (within 2–3 hours) and cumulative with regular intake.Multiple RCTs demonstrate dietary nitrates from beetroot reduce systolic blood pressure by 4–10 mmHg.

For blood pressure support: daily with any meal or drink. For exercise performance: 2–3 hours before training (nitric oxide peak is ~2–3 hours after consumption). For general health: any time convenient for daily routine.For blood pressure support: daily with any meal or drink.

Freeze-drying removes moisture by sublimation (ice directly to vapour) at very low temperatures and pressure, without heat. Regular spray-drying uses high heat which degrades heat-sensitive nutrients like Vitamin C, betalains, and nitrates. Freeze-drying preserves these compounds at levels close to fresh beetroot per gram of dry weight.Freeze-drying removes moisture by sublimation (ice directly to vapour) at very low temperatures and pressure, without heat.
