HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Total Beets Pomegranate Berry Flavor by Force Factor
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 powder contains 3 active ingredients: potassium, beet powder, and NO3-T. Potassium is an electrolyte essential for heart rhythm, nerve function, and muscle contraction.
Beet powder is a concentrated form of beetroot, which contains nitrates and pigments (like betanin) that may support exercise performance and blood flow. NO3-T is a branded ingredient we hold no data on.
The product also contains inactive ingredients—natural flavors, maltodextrin, silicon dioxide, citric acid, and stevia—which are fillers, thickeners, and sweeteners to make the powder taste better and mix smoothly.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
Beet powder in this product is rated Possibly Effective for athletic performance and exercise-induced muscle soreness — meaning small studies suggest a benefit, but more evidence is needed to be sure. For chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), beet is rated Possibly Ineffective.
For dyslipidemia (abnormal blood fats) and cognitive function, the evidence isn't established in the data we hold — we don't have enough reliable studies to rate it either way. Potassium's effectiveness ratings are not on file for this product.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Potassium from food is generally safe, but supplements can cause dangerously high blood levels in certain people, especially those with kidney disease — use supplements only under medical guidance. During pregnancy and breastfeeding, dietary potassium is fine, but talk with your doctor before taking a potassium supplement.
Beet is widely eaten as food and is generally well tolerated for most adults. As a concentrated supplement, though, safety data are limited, so use caution.
The most common side effect is red or dark stools, which is harmless. Rare serious effects from large amounts include low blood calcium and kidney damage.
Potassium can cause abdominal pain, belching, diarrhea, flatulence, nausea, and vomiting; at high levels it can trigger irregular heartbeat, heart block, low blood pressure, and mental confusion.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking this product, check with your pharmacist if you take potassium-sparing diuretics (Moderate severity), ACE inhibitors or ARBs (Moderate severity), or CYP3A4 substrates such as certain immunosuppressants and cholesterol or cancer medications (Moderate severity). Beet may also theoretically lower blood pressure (Minor severity) or affect how your liver clears CYP1A2 substrates (Minor severity).
We could not check NO3-T for interactions.
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 take potassium-sparing diuretics, ACE inhibitors, ARBs, or medications metabolized by CYP3A4, check with your pharmacist before using this product — the potassium and beet together may cause unsafe interactions. Even if you don't take those drugs, if you have kidney disease, talk to your doctor first.
Beet's benefit for exercise performance is promising but not yet proven; potassium from food is healthy, but supplements require medical supervision.

Total Beets Pomegranate Berry Flavor by Force Factor Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Total Beets Pomegranate Berry Flavor by Force Factor contains potassium and beet powder, both of which have documented interactions with medications.
The most serious concern is potassium's Moderate-severity risk with potassium-sparing diuretics, ACE inhibitors (blood pressure drugs that work by blocking the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system), and ARBs (angiotensin receptor blockers — another class of blood pressure medication). All three drug types raise your potassium levels, and adding a potassium supplement on top can cause dangerously high blood potassium (hyperkalemia), which can trigger irregular heartbeat, heart block, low blood pressure, and confusion.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Beet powder also carries Moderate-severity interactions with CYP3A4 substrates — a broad category of medications your liver breaks down, including some immunosuppressants, cholesterol drugs, and cancer therapies. In lab studies, beet's main pigment (betanin) inhibits the enzyme that clears these drugs, potentially raising their levels in your blood.
Additionally, beet may theoretically lower blood pressure via its nitrate content, though clinical studies have shown mixed results. Beet also has a Minor-severity interaction with CYP1A2 substrates, a smaller group of medications that beet may speed up your liver's ability to clear.
We were unable to check NO3-T for interactions because we hold no data on this ingredient. Altogether, these interactions span 860 individual medications.

For each ingredient in Total Beets Pomegranate Berry Flavor with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Beet, Powder
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.
Potassium
Ace Inhibitors (Aceis)
Using ACEIs with high doses of potassium increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
ACEIs block the actions of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and reduce potassium excretion. Concomitant use of these drugs with potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia. However, concomitant use of these drugs with moderate dietary potassium intake (about 3775-5200 mg daily) does not increase serum potassium levels.
Angiotensin Receptor Blockers (Arbs)
Using ARBs with high doses of potassium increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
ARBs block the actions of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and reduce potassium excretion. Concomitant use of these drugs with potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia. However, concomitant use of these drugs with moderate dietary potassium intake (about 3775-5200 mg daily) does not increase serum potassium levels.
Potassium-Sparing Diuretics
Concomitant use increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
Using potassium-sparing diuretics with potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
