Vegan Beetroot Gummies

Wellgard Vegan Beetroot Gummies are a mixed berry chewable beetroot supplement. Two gummies carry 200mg of beetroot extract 10:1, equivalent to 2,000mg of whole Beta vulgaris, with seven vitamins and chromium. Sixty gummies to a bottle, 30 servings, one month. Vitamins C, B2, B6 and Folate contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.

Whenever you will remember, with food as the bottle directs. Plenty of people make it mid-afternoon simply because that is when they think of it.

Thiamin contributes to the normal function of the heart, and there is 1.1mg of it per two gummies, which is 100% of the daily reference intake. Beetroot itself has no nutrient reference value, so the panel states it as an amount rather than attaching a claim to it.

Thiamin, which is vitamin B1, contributes to the normal function of the heart, to normal energy-yielding metabolism, to the normal functioning of the nervous system and to normal psychological function. There is 1.1mg per serving, 100% of the daily reference intake.

Wellgard Nitrabeets, the capsule, which declares 302mg of potassium per serving. Potassium contributes to the maintenance of normal blood pressure. These gummies take a different route: the heart wording here comes from thiamin at 100% of the daily reference intake.

It depends on the nutrients in them, since beetroot itself has no nutrient reference value. In these, thiamin contributes to the normal function of the heart at 100% of the daily reference intake, and vitamins C, B2, B6 and Folate contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.

Neither is better; they are different formats of a beetroot supplement. A gummy is chewed and tastes of berries, a capsule is swallowed and holds more of the raw material. Both are two a day here, and both are a month to a pack.

Yes. Wellgard Vegan Beetroot Gummies are set with pectin rather than gelatine, so they suit vegans and vegetarians, and so is the Nitrabeets capsule, which uses a plant-based capsule shell.

200mg of beetroot extract at a 10:1 ratio per two gummies, which is equivalent to 2,000mg of whole Beta vulgaris. Both figures are printed on the panel.

That ten parts of beetroot were concentrated into one part of extract. So 200mg of a 10:1 extract came from 2,000mg of whole root, and the pack prints both numbers rather than only the larger one.

Seven vitamins and one mineral per two gummies: vitamin D3 5µg (100% NRV), vitamin E 7mg (58%), vitamin C 40mg (50%), vitamin B1 1.1mg (100%), vitamin B2 1.4mg (100%), vitamin B6 1.4mg (100%), folic acid 200µg (100%) and chromium 40µg (100%).

Vitamins C, B2, B6 and Folate contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, and all four are in these gummies. Vitamin C sits at 50% of the daily reference intake and the other three at 100%. That is the sentence on the front of the bottle.

Vitamins C, B2, B6 and Folate contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, and vitamin B1 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism as well. That is what the front of the bottle refers to.

Chromium contributes to normal macronutrient metabolism and to the maintenance of normal blood glucose levels. There is 40µg per two gummies, which is 100% of the daily reference intake.

Vitamin D contributes to the normal function of the immune system, to the maintenance of normal bones, teeth and muscle function, and to the normal absorption and use of calcium and phosphorus. There is 5µg per serving, 100% of the daily reference intake.

Chew 2 gummies daily, preferably with food. Do not swallow whole. Sixty gummies is 30 servings, so a bottle is a month.

Chew them. A pectin gummy relies on chewing to break down, which is why the bottle says not to swallow one whole.

Preferably, as the bottle directs. Most people make it breakfast.

Mixed berry, and soft enough to bite through without working at it. The flavour comes from natural flavouring and a 200mg blend of blackcurrant, apple, date and peach juice concentrates, so nothing about them tastes of beetroot.

Black carrot juice concentrate, alongside the beetroot extract and the fruit concentrates. There are no added colours.

Yes. They are set with pectin rather than gelatine, so they are suitable for vegans and vegetarians.

Yes. Sucrose and glucose syrup are the first two ingredients, because that is what sets and sweetens a pectin gummy. If you want beetroot with no sugar at all, a capsule is the format to look at.

Both are heart-minded, and they differ on what else they carry. These gummies are chewed, taste of mixed berries, and bring thiamin for the heart alongside six more vitamins and chromium. Wellgard Nitrabeets is a capsule with standardised beetroot, its nitrate and betalain figures printed, and it adds 302mg of potassium, which is where its blood pressure wording comes from. Compare the panels and pick on what you came for.

Take the gummies if you would rather chew something that tastes of berries and want the vitamins alongside the beetroot. Take Nitrabeets if blood pressure is specifically what brought you here, since it declares the potassium that carries that wording. Both are two a day and both are a month to a pack.

They can. Beetroot pigments pass through some people and colour urine pink or red, which is called beeturia and is harmless. It is reported in roughly one in ten people, and more often in people who are low in iron.

Add up the vitamins across everything you take, particularly vitamin D, folic acid and chromium, since these are at 100% of the daily reference intake. A pharmacist can help with the totals.

Consult your GP, as the bottle directs. Folate contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy, and there is 200µg per serving, so it is worth mentioning the figure to your GP or midwife alongside anything else you take.

Anyone pregnant or lactating, anyone taking medication, and anyone under medical supervision should consult their GP first. Keep out of sight and reach of children.

These are for adults, and the bottle directs two gummies daily without a separate instruction for children. Wellgard makes a Kids range with its own directions on its own packs.

The ingredient list carries no declared allergens. The full list is under Read the Box.

Beetroot, fruit, vitamins and chromium only, with no caffeine in them.

In a cool dry place below 25 degrees C, out of direct sunlight, and out of sight and reach of children. Heat is what makes any gummy go sticky, so not the windowsill. For Best Before End and batch number, see the bottom of the bottle.

Heat is what does that to any gummy, so store them below 25 degrees C and out of direct sunlight rather than somewhere warm.

Chew two the next day as usual. There is nothing to catch up.
