HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Beet Root 450 mg by TerraVita Premium Collection
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.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: beet root at 450 mg per capsule. Beet is the whole root vegetable, used here in concentrated supplement form.
The capsule itself is made from gelatin and water, which are inactive ingredients.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
Beet root has some evidence for athletic performance and exercise-induced muscle soreness, where it's rated possibly effective—meaning early studies suggest a potential benefit, but more research is needed. For other uses like high cholesterol (dyslipidemia) and cognitive function, the evidence isn't established enough to rate.
For COPD (chronic lung disease), it's rated possibly ineffective.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Beet as a food is generally well tolerated by most adults. As a concentrated supplement, though, safety data is limited, so use caution.
The most common side effects are harmless—red or even black stools and red urine from the pigment. Rarely, very large amounts can cause low blood calcium (hypocalcemia) or kidney damage because of oxalic acid content.
One case reported a man on blood thinners (apixaban and clopidogrel) who developed black stools and nausea after beet pills, though upper GI bleeding was ruled out.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking this product, check whether you take any drugs that are CYP3A4 substrates (a large group affecting about 850 medications including many heart, blood pressure, and psychiatric drugs), CYP1A2 substrates, or blood pressure medications. The beet may interact with all three categories.
Your pharmacist can look up your exact medications using the tool on this page.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
Beet root may help with exercise performance and muscle soreness recovery if the early evidence holds up for you. If you take medications broken down by your liver—especially common heart, blood pressure, or psychiatric drugs—check your list before starting.
Talk with your pharmacist or doctor about whether this product fits your medications and health situation.

Beet Root 450 mg by TerraVita Premium Collection Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
TerraVita Premium Collection's Beet Root 450 mg contains one active ingredient—beet—which does interact with medications.
The most serious concern is with CYP3A4 substrates (a major liver enzyme group), where beet may increase drug levels in a dose-dependent way. In vitro research shows the beet pigment betanin blocks this enzyme similarly to strong inhibitors like ketoconazole, which can raise blood levels of affected drugs and their side effects.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Beet also theoretically decreases levels of CYP1A2 substrates (another liver enzyme group), potentially weakening their effects. Additionally, beet contains nitrates that may lower blood pressure when combined with antihypertensive drugs, though clinical evidence of a significant effect is mixed.
Altogether, these interactions span 850 individual medications. Before you start this supplement, run your exact prescriptions through the medication checker on this page to see if any are affected.

For each ingredient in Beet Root 450 mg 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
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.
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.
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.
