Benefits
AltRed is a game-changer. The betalains are standardized and proven to enhance oxygen delivery, reduce fatigue, and support faster recovery. That means you can go longer, feel stronger, and bounce back faster—don’t train without it.
Background
Everyone knows the sports performance benefits of beets are legit. But could they be even better? Absolutely.
After years of research, our R&D team zeroed in on betalains—the pigments that give beets their deep red color. It turns out, they’re more than just antioxidants—they’re an endurance-supporting powerhouse.
When extracted and separated from sugar, betalains unleash their full potential. The result? Longer-lasting nitric oxide support and potent antioxidant protection—a combination that helps maximize oxygen delivery and support peak performance. And it’s not just a hypothesis—multiple clinical studies on our extract confirms it.
And we’re just getting started. Our team continues to research the benefits of betalains, uncovering even more ways they can support endurance, recovery, and overall health.
Ingredients
Beet root extract (standardized to contain 25% betalains)
How To Use
Take one (1) capsule approximately one hour before your activity. If your activity lasts for an extended period, take an additional capsule every two hours.

Betalain Pioneers
Betalains are distinctive nutrients found in the pigment of red beets, known for their powerful oxygen-boosting benefits. Over the past decade, we’ve been committed to unlocking their full potential through rigorous clinical research, field testing, and developing a specialized extraction process. Our breakthrough lies in creating an extract with significantly improved bioavailability, delivering the results you’re seeking.
Highlights From Our Research
Unlike most supplements, the benefits of AltRed are validated by our own gold-standard clinical studies.
Faster 5k times
A study at UC Davis found that competitive distance runners performed an average of 3% faster in a 5km time trial when they used AltRed. In addition to the time improvement, runners using AltRed also saw a 15% lower RPE (rate of perceived exertion). (Van Hoorbeeke)
Another study at UC Davis looked at the 5km time trial performance in triathletes. The triathletes using AltRed reported average times that were 3% faster than the control group. The 5km in this study was performed 24 hours after a 10k time trial for both study groups demonstrating improved performance and recovery in the athletes receiving AltRed. (Montenegro)
More average watts and improved cycling efficiency
Researchers at Auburn University studied the effects of AltRed on cycling performance. In comparison to the placebo group, those receiving AltRed saw an average watt increase of 3.5% during a 30 minute functional threshold power (FTP) test. In addition to an increase in watts, there was an average increase of 5.4% in cycling efficiency. (Mumford)
Reduced exercise-induced muscle damage
In addition to improved 5k performance in triathletes, Montenegro et. al found that blood levels of a key indicator of muscle damage, Creatine Kinase (CK), was 9% lower with AltRed. CK is an enzyme found mainly in the muscles that is released when there is muscle damage. Chronically elevated levels of CK can lead to muscle fatigue, injury and decreased performance. (Coutts)
Reduced blood lactate concentration
An athlete’s ability to recover from workouts is equally as important as their performance. Van Hoorbeeke et. al found a 14% reduction in blood lactate levels in the runners receiving AltRed post 5k time trial, indicating improved recovery in comparison to the control group.
What To Expect
Take a capsule about one hour before your workout. It’s not a stimulant, so it won’t give you a tingling sensation. Instead, you’ll feel its benefits kick in when you start pushing your limits. For sessions longer than 2 hours, take another capsule to keep nitric oxide levels up.
It’s a Vasodilator
AltRed increases nitric oxide levels which expands blood vessels allowing more blood flow helping deliver more oxgyen and nutrients to your muscles. This is essential for maximizing athletic performance and endurance. It also helps support healthy blood pressure.
Breathe Easier
Our betalains make breathing easier, even at higher altitudes. As a result, you can exercise more efficiently, have more energy, experience less fatigue, and feel better overall thanks to improved oxygen delivery.
What is nitric oxide and why is important?
Nitric oxide (NO) is a molecule that relaxes blood vessels, improving blood flow and oxygen delivery throughout the body. This supports heart health, enhances exercise performance, and boosts cognitive function, making it essential for overall well-being.
What is beeturia?
Beeturia is when your urine takes on a reddish or pink hue after eating beets. This color shift happens because of betalains, the pigments in beets. While it might look alarming, beeturia is harmless and usually fades within a few hours to a couple of days. Some people are more likely to experience it, while others might not notice any change at all.
What's the difference between beet root powder and our betalain extract?
Our beet root powder capsules are organic and contain natural nitrates for nitric oxide. AltRed, on the other hand, is a concentrated, highly absorbable betalain extract without nitrates or sugar. It enhances nitric oxide production by working with the nitrates already in your body, providing a longer-lasting effect. Two unique ways to boost nitric oxide—one standard, the other more advanced!
Is there a loading period?
Initially, we included a loading period in our clinical studies, but we've since learned that AltRed doesn't require one. Most users experience benefits from their first use.
