HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Beet Root 1300 mg Extra Strength by Built By Nature

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 11, 2026

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains a single active ingredient: beet powder at 1,300 mg per capsule. Beet (also called beetroot) is the whole plant in powder form.

The capsule also contains inactive ingredients — cellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, and magnesium stearate — which are fillers and binders.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Nitric oxide support and healthy heart energy.
  • We looked for evidence on: Athletic performance, Coronary heart disease (CHD), Hypertension, Pregnancy-induced hypertension, Pulmonary hypertension, Raynaud syndrome — and 4 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Beet is rated "Possibly Effective" for Athletic performance (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Beet is rated "Possibly Effective" for Exercise-induced muscle soreness.
  • Also on file: Beet is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Coronary heart disease (CHD), Hypertension, Pregnancy-induced hypertension, Raynaud syndrome, and more.

The evidence for beet in this form shows mixed results. It's rated possibly effective for athletic performance and for exercise-induced muscle soreness (the kind you feel a day or two after a hard workout).

For COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), the evidence suggests it may not help. For cholesterol levels and brain function, there isn't enough reliable evidence to rate it either way.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Beet

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Beet as a food is eaten widely and is generally well tolerated. However, concentrated supplements like this one lack robust safety data, so use caution — especially long term.

The most common side effects are harmless: red stools and red urine (the betalain pigments pass through your system). Rarely, black stools have been reported.

In large amounts, beet theoretically could lower calcium levels in your blood or damage your kidneys, though these are uncommon.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Beet

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Beet.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 862 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Double-check any medications your liver breaks down using the CYP3A4 or CYP1A2 pathways (a pharmacist can tell you if yours do). Blood pressure medications also warrant a conversation, since beet may lower pressure.

No interactions are documented for the inactive ingredients we hold data on.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

If you're an athlete looking to boost endurance or reduce post-workout soreness, beet may be worth a try. But check your medications first — especially any drugs your liver processes — because beet could change how they work.

Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before starting, particularly if you take blood pressure medications or drugs metabolized by your liver.

For each ingredient in Beet Root 1300 mg Extra Strength with known interactions, here are the types of medications it can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.

Beet, Powder3 drug types · 861 drugs

Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, beet might increase the levels of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro research suggests that betanin, the major pigment in beet, competitively inhibits CYP3A4 in a dose-dependent manner similarly to strong CYP3A4 inhibitor ketoconazole.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Beet and beetroot contain nitrates, which can cause vasodilation, potentially leading to lower blood pressure. However, a study published in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition using concentrated beetroot juice found no significant impact on blood pressure or heart rate in different age groups. Other small clinical studies suggest that while beet consumption might transiently lower blood pressure due to vessel dilation, there's no consistent evidence of a lasting effect. Overall, the theoretical risk of reduced blood pressure due to beet's nitrate content exists, but studies generally indicate a low and temporary impact rather than a sustained decrease.

Likelihood Possible Evidence A
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, beet might decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research suggests that beet induces CYP1A2 enzymes.

Beet Root 1300 mg Extra Strength by Built By Nature: Common Questions

Does Beet Root 1300 mg Extra Strength by Built By Nature interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Beet Root 1300 mg Extra Strength has a known interaction with 861 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Beet Root 1300 mg Extra Strength contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Will this turn my pee and poop red?
Yes, very likely. The natural pigments in beet pass through your system and turn urine and stools red. It's harmless, just noticeable. Some people also report black stools.
Does beet actually help with exercise performance?
The evidence suggests it's possibly effective for athletic performance and for the muscle soreness you feel after hard workouts. Results vary, and it's not proven — but there's reason to think it may help.
Is this safe to take every day long term?
Beet as a food is safe and widely eaten. But concentrated supplements like this one don't have solid long-term safety data, so we advise caution. If you want to use it regularly, talk with your pharmacist first.
Can beet damage my kidneys?
Only if you take very large amounts over time. The beet's oxalic acid content could theoretically harm kidney function or lower your calcium in extreme cases, but these are rare at normal doses.
How much beet is in each capsule?
Each capsule contains 1,300 mg of beet powder. This is a concentrated form — much more than you'd get from eating a whole beet.
What is betanin and why does it matter?
Betanin is the main pigment that gives beet its deep red color. Lab research shows it blocks a liver enzyme (CYP3A4) that breaks down hundreds of medications, so it could raise drug levels in your blood.
