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 2 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

SuperBeets Heart Chews contains 2 active ingredients: beet powder and Enovita, a grape extract. Beet powder is added for its nitrate content, which supports blood vessel function and oxygen use during exercise.

Enovita contributes polyphenols and other compounds found in grapes, traditionally used for circulation and vein health. The product also contains inactive ingredients — tapioca syrup, cane sugar, rice bran, natural flavors, sunflower lecithin, sunflower oil, malic acid, glycerin, citric acid, and rebaudioside A — which serve as sweeteners, binders, and flavoring.

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: Blood pressure support and heart health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Hypertension, Cardiovascular disease (CVD), Coronary heart disease (CHD), Atherosclerosis, Dyslipidemia, Hypercholesterolemia — and 4 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Grape is rated "Possibly Effective" for Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Beet is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Coronary heart disease (CHD), Dyslipidemia, Hypertension, Pregnancy-induced hypertension, and more.
  • Also on file: Grape is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Atherosclerosis.

Beet powder is possibly effective for athletic performance and exercise-induced muscle soreness. The evidence for grape extract (Enovita) points to it being possibly effective for chronic venous insufficiency — a condition affecting blood flow in the legs.

The data we hold shows insufficient evidence to rate beet for cognitive function or dyslipidemia (cholesterol issues). For grape extract, there's also insufficient evidence for most other uses.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Beet Grape

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 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Both ingredients are generally well tolerated when used short-term. Beet as a whole food is widely eaten and safe for most adults, but concentrated beet supplements lack long-term safety data, so use caution.

Grape as a whole food and grape seed extract are generally well tolerated, though concentrated grape supplements are not recommended during pregnancy due to limited safety data. Common side effects from beet include red or black stools (harmless coloring) and occasional gastrointestinal upset.

Grape extract may cause abdominal pain, diarrhea, dry mouth, headache, joint pain, or nausea in some people. Rare serious effects include low blood calcium (hypocalcemia) and kidney damage from very large beet doses, and anaphylaxis to grape skin (extremely rare).

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

Why this rating?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Beet, Grape.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs.
  • For scale: 1,026 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.

Before taking SuperBeets Heart Chews, check with your pharmacist if you're on CYP3A4 substrates (Moderate), blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs like aspirin or warfarin (Moderate), cyclosporine (Moderate), CYP1A2 or CYP2D6 substrates (Moderate), or antihypertensive drugs that lower blood pressure (Minor). No interactions are documented for CYP2E1 substrates in humans, but lab evidence suggests they may also be affected.

Enovita9 drug types · 910 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, grape extracts may have antiplatelet effects and may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro evidence suggests that grape extracts might decrease platelet aggregation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cyclosporine (Neoral, Sandimmune)

Ingesting grape juice with cyclosporine can reduce cyclosporine absorption.
A small pharmacokinetic study in healthy young adults shows that intake of purple grape juice 200 mL along with cyclosporine can decrease the absorption of cyclosporine by up to 30% when compared with water. Separate doses of grape juice and cyclosporine by at least 2 hours to avoid this interaction.

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

Theoretically, grape juice might reduce the levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
A small pharmacokinetic study in healthy adults shows that ingestion of 200 mL of grape juice decreases phenacetin plasma levels. This is thought to be due to induction of CYP1A2.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates

Theoretically, grape seed extract may increase the levels of CYP2D6 substrates.
In vitro evidence suggests that grape seed extract might inhibit CYP2D6 enzymes. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2E1 (Cyp2E1) Substrates

Theoretically, grape seed extract might increase the levels of CYP2E1 substrates.
In vitro and animal research suggests that grape seed proanthocyanidin extract inhibits CYP2E1 enzymes. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

It is unclear if grape seed extract inhibits or induces CYP3A4; research is conflicting.
In vitro evidence suggests that grape seed extract might inhibit CYP3A4 enzymes. However, evidence from animal research shows that grape seed extract may induce CYP3A4 in the liver. So far, these interactions have not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Midazolam (Versed)

Theoretically, long-term intake of grape seed extract might decrease the effects of midazolam.
Animal research shows that subchronic ingestions of grape seed extract can increase the elimination of intravenous midazolam by increasing hepatic CYP3A4 activity. Single doses of grape seed extract do not appear to affect midazolam elimination.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Phenacetin

Grape juice might decrease phenacetin absorption.
A small pharmacokinetic study in healthy adults shows that ingestion of 200 mL of grape juice decreases phenacetin plasma levels. This is thought to be due to induction of cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2).

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

It is unclear if grape juice or grape seed extract inhibits CYP2C9; research is conflicting.
In vitro evidence shows that grape seed extract or grape juice might inhibit CYP2C9 enzymes. However, a small pharmacokinetic study in healthy adults shows that drinking 8 ounces of grape juice once does not affect the clearance of flurbiprofen, a probe-drug for CYP2C9 metabolism. The effects of continued grape juice consumption are unclear.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D

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.

SuperBeets Heart Chews Pomegranate Berry Flavor by Human N: Common Questions

Does SuperBeets Heart Chews Pomegranate Berry Flavor by Human N interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, SuperBeets Heart Chews Pomegranate Berry Flavor has a known interaction with 1,025 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
SuperBeets Heart Chews Pomegranate Berry Flavor contains 2 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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 these chews actually help my workouts?
Beet powder is possibly effective for athletic performance and exercise-induced muscle soreness, so the evidence is promising but not definitive. If you're training or recovering from intense exercise, it's worth a try — the effect is tied to beet's nitrate content, which helps your body use oxygen better.
What's Enovita, and why is it in this product?
Enovita is a grape extract. It's included because the evidence shows it's possibly effective for chronic venous insufficiency — a condition where blood doesn't flow well back up from your legs. It contains polyphenols and other compounds from grape that may support circulation.
Why do these chews turn my stools red or black?
That's the beet. Red or black stools from beet are just the color of the pigment passing through — it's not harmful and it's not blood. If it bothers you, it'll clear once you stop taking the chews.
Can I take these while pregnant or breastfeeding?
The grape extract in this product is rated likely safe during pregnancy. We don't have safety data on file for beet powder during pregnancy or breastfeeding, so talk with your pharmacist or doctor for personalized advice — they can weigh what we know against your individual situation.
Are there any fillers or 'other stuff' in these chews I should know about?
Yes — there are inactive ingredients like tapioca syrup, cane sugar, sunflower lecithin, and others that serve as sweeteners, binders, and flavoring. If you have sensitivities to any of these, check the full ingredient list on the label.
Will these chews affect how my medications work?
Possibly. Both beet and grape can interact with many medications, especially blood thinners, drugs your liver processes through specific enzyme pathways, and cyclosporine. You must check your exact prescriptions with the search tool on this page — don't assume you're in the clear without looking them up.
