Natrava Beets Gummies Review: What 30 Days Actually Looked Like
- Aug 19
- 5 min read
Beet supplements have a taste problem. Anyone who has choked down a glass of beet powder knows the deal: earthy, metallic, a little like licking a garden. So when the Natrava BEETS+ Gummies label said it fixed that with a cherry berry flavor, I got curious and a bit suspicious at the same time. I bought a bag and took them for 30 straight days, trying to get off my pre-workout. Here's everything I experienced during the period.
What Are Natrava BEETS+ Gummies?
Natrava BEETS+ Gummies are a cherry berry flavored beet supplement built around three ingredients: 350mg of beet root extract at a 20:1 ratio, 11.5mg of grape seed extract at 13:1, and 30mg of vitamin C. One serving includes two gummies, and one bag holds 50 pieces, totaling 25 servings.
Beets carry dietary nitrate; your body turns that nitrate into nitric oxide, and nitric oxide helps blood vessels relax so blood moves more easily. In a 60-day trial published in the Journal of Nutrition, adults with elevated blood pressure drank beetroot juice supplying roughly 400mg of nitrate a day. That's the whole mechanism behind any beet supplement, including the one I was trying. Each serving had 2 grams of added sugar and 20 calories, perfect for the days I was dieting.
Unboxing and First Impressions
The bag showed up three days after I ordered. It was a matte resealable pouch, nothing fancy, and the gummies were loose and separate. When I opened it, the smell hit first: a sweet, fruity cherry berry aroma.
Texture-wise, they were firm and chewy, closer to a wine gum. The color was a deep beet-red, almost black in low light. The taste genuinely exceeded my expectations. The cherry berry flavor was sweet, enjoyable, and surprisingly close
Week 1: Getting Into the Routine
Two gummies a day, no timing rules. Natrava says to take them whenever it fits your schedule, and since the formula contains no caffeine or other stimulants, you're not risking an energy overshoot.
I settled on about 30 minutes before training, usually on an empty stomach. I stuck with that all month and missed zero days. Week one was quiet. I felt nothing, which is what I expected. Nitrate needs consistent intake before you can feel any difference, and honestly, I'd be suspicious of anyone who reports a day-two transformation.
The habit itself was easy. Two gummies take five seconds to pop into your mouth and no water to swallow. To be honest, that’s exactly why I chose Natrava Beets gummies over powder.
Weeks 2-4: What Changed
Being straight with you: I did not measure blood pressure. What I can report is how I felt: a small, steady difference in afternoon energy.
Somewhere in week 2 or 3, the afternoons got easier. My usual 3 PM dip still happened, just shorter. Energy remained level throughout the month despite the absence of a stimulant in the formula. Some bloating during the 1st week was inevitable, since I took them on an empty stomach.
The one thing nobody warned me about: around day nine, my urine turned pink. It's called beeturia; it's harmless, but it still startled me. If it happens to you, don’t panic. It's a known and harmless beet effect.
Pros and Cons After 30 Days
Pros
The cherry berry flavor works pleasantly.
Simple Formula. Three ingredients, all disclosed with exact amounts. No proprietary blend hiding behind a trademark.
No stimulant, so timing it is not an issue.
Grab-and-go format. Takes 5 seconds to pop, no prep required.
Cons
2g of added sugar per serving. Small, but still sugar.
Results aren't necessarily immediate, so consistent use matters.
Who Might Like Natrava BEETS+ Gummies
Natrava Beets gummies work if you've tried beet powder and quit because of the taste. They also fit if you want circulation and energy support without caffeine, or if you travel a lot and preparing a scoop of powder is always a hassle. Natrava's own label says not to take the product if you have liver disease or elevated liver enzymes, so check with your doctor first if that applies to you.
Final Verdict
RATING: 4.9 out of 5.
Natrava nailed the format and the flavor, which is the hardest part of getting anyone to take beets daily for a month. The formula is transparent about all its ingredients and their exact dosages. I'd buy it on subscription. Full price can be a stretch. I'd probably rotate back to powder for quantity, but right now I’m enjoying these less as supplements and more as an indulgent yet nutritious candy I get to take daily.
If the taste is what's been stopping you from taking beet supplements, Natrava BEETS+ Gummies solve that problem well.
FAQs
How many gummies should I take per day?
Two gummies are one serving, and that's the daily amount Natrava recommends. One bag holds 50 gummies, so a bag covers 25 days at that rate. There's no set time of day since the formula has no stimulant.
Are there any known side effects?
Beet supplements can cause beeturia, which is harmless and causes pink or red urine. Some people get mild gas or bloating early on. Natrava's label says not to use the product if you have liver disease or elevated liver enzymes.
Is it vegan or gluten-free?
Yes, NATRAVA gummies are made with gluten-free, plant-based ingredients, with the ingredients clearly disclosed on the label.
How does it compare to drinking beet juice?
Beet juice usually delivers far more nitrate per serving than a gummy, and clinical trials tend to use juice at doses around 400mg of nitrate daily. Gummies win on taste and convenience. Juice wins on dose.
How long before beet gummies do anything?
Nitrate effects on circulation can show up within hours, but anything you'd actually notice day-to-day tends to need consistent intake over weeks. Most trials run four to eight weeks. Give it a full bag before deciding.
Does the pink urine mean something is wrong?
No. Beeturia is a harmless effect of beet pigment passing through your system, and it affects some people and not others. It's not a sign of a problem, and it stops when you stop taking beets.
