Below is general information about the safety of the known ingredients contained in the product Total Beets Pomegranate Berry Flavor. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
LIKELY SAFE ...when used in amounts commonly found in foods.
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately for medicinal purposes, short term. Beetroot juice has been safely used in clinical trials in doses of up to 500 mL daily for up to 7 days and a beetroot-based nutritional gel has been used safely in doses of up to 100 grams daily for 8 days (94461,94462,94464,100149,100152,100153).
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION:
There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of beets used medicinally during pregnancy and breast-feeding.
LIKELY SAFE ...when used orally in doses up to 100 mEq total potassium daily, not to exceed 200 mEq in a 24-hour period (95010,107989). Oral potassium chloride and potassium citrate are FDA-approved prescription products (95010,107989). Larger doses increase the risk of hyperkalemia (15). ...when administered intravenously (IV) at appropriate infusion rates (95011). Parenteral potassium is an FDA-approved prescription product (15,95011). A tolerable upper intake level (UL) for potassium has not been established; however, potassium levels should be monitored in individuals at increased risk for hyperkalemia, such as those with kidney disease, heart failure, and adrenal insufficiency (100310,107966).
CHILDREN: LIKELY SAFE
when used orally and appropriately in dietary amounts.
A tolerable upper intake level (UL) has not been established for healthy individuals (6243,100310).
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION: LIKELY SAFE
when used orally in dietary amounts of 40-80 mEq daily (15).
A tolerable upper intake level (UL) has not been established for healthy individuals (100310).
Below is general information about the interactions of the known ingredients contained in the product Total Beets Pomegranate Berry Flavor. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
Using ACEIs with high doses of potassium increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
Details
ACEIs block the actions of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and reduce potassium excretion (95628). Concomitant use of these drugs with potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia (15,23207). However, concomitant use of these drugs with moderate dietary potassium intake (about 3775-5200 mg daily) does not increase serum potassium levels (95628).
|
Using ARBs with high doses of potassium increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
Details
ARBs block the actions of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and reduce potassium excretion (95628). Concomitant use of these drugs with potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia (15,23207). However, concomitant use of these drugs with moderate dietary potassium intake (about 3775-5200 mg daily) does not increase serum potassium levels (95628).
|
Concomitant use increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
Details
Using potassium-sparing diuretics with potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia (15).

Below is general information about the adverse effects of the known ingredients contained in the product Total Beets Pomegranate Berry Flavor. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
General
...Orally, beet seems to be well tolerated when used for medicinal purposes, short term.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Red stools and red urine.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Orally: Hypocalcemia and kidney damage when ingested in large amounts.
Endocrine ...Theoretically, ingestion of large quantities of beets could lead to hypocalcemia because of the oxaluric acid content (18).
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, beet juice may cause red stools (94470,97726,100142,100145,105762). This red coloring of the stools is not harmful. Other less common gastrointestinal side effects include loose stools, constipation, and nausea (100149).
Genitourinary ...Orally, beet is known to produce red or pink urine (beeturia) in some people (32569,34134,94464,94470,97725,97726,100142,100145,100152,105762). However, this red coloring of the urine is not harmful.
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally, vivid dreams and worsening headaches have each occurred in one person in a clinical trial, although it is not clear if this is due to beet (97723).
Renal ...Theoretically, ingestion of large quantities of beets could lead to kidney damage due to its oxaluric acid content (18).
General
...Orally or intravenously, potassium is generally well-tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Abdominal pain, belching, diarrhea, flatulence, nausea, and vomiting.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
All ROAs: High potassium levels can cause arrhythmia, heart block, hypotension, and mental confusion.
Cardiovascular ...Orally or intravenously, high potassium levels can cause hypotension, cardiac arrhythmias, heart block, or cardiac arrest (15,16,3385,95011,95626,95630).
Gastrointestinal ...Orally or intravenously, high doses of potassium can cause, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and flatulence (95010,95011). Bleeding duodenal ulcers have also been associated with ingestion of slow-release potassium tablets (69625,69672).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally or intravenously, high potassium levels can cause paresthesia, generalized weakness, flaccid paralysis, listlessness, vertigo, or mental confusion (15,16,3385,95011).
