Upbeet Success Story: Stacy H. of Delaware
Love getting feedback from happy customers! Stacy has lost over 16lbs, but more importantly has taken control of the foods she eats, has switched to a mostly plant based diet, and added Upbeet Endurance Powder into her daily routine. Upbeet isn’t about weight loss, it’s about putting good stuff into your body, feeling better, and the results take care of themselves. Way to go Stacy!

Upbeet is going Eco-Friendly!
Upbeet is committed to providing the optimal product to meet the demands of the human body, as well as being as environmentally friendly as possible. With this being said, Upbeet is moving from a 5.5oz plastic container, to a 7 oz Eco-Friendly pouch. In order to do this we are selling through our existing inventory and hoping to have the transition within the next 30 days. As a small company who just started in March of 2015, we are asking for assistance in raising the investment to make this transition. If you are able to assist, we are deeply grateful and will offer discounts in return for your investment, small or large. You can view our fundraising campaign at http://www.gofundme.com/getupbeet
Thank you, and healthy wishes!
Optimal Endurance Benefits of Beet Root
The Silent Killer
It still amazes me the abundance of “nutritional supplements” hitting the market that society flocks towards, all in response to achieve that “killer workout”. Well, you might not be that far off. Over 90% of the nutritional supplements, greater for Pre-workouts, are loaded with artificial sweeteners, such as Aspartame and Sucralose. These artificial sweeteners have no long term health studies concluded, however, research is showing the direct cause and effect they provide to the body. Both these sweeteners, are neurotoxins. These amino acids are not the same as eating a piece of meat or poultry. Upon ingestion, these neurotoxins attack your cells creating a toxic cellular overstimulation, even crossing your blood brain barrier attacking your brain cells. All this from something that tastes sweet! This is an excerpt from Dr. Mercola on artificial sweeteners:
“Aspartame, for instance, is a sweet-tasting neurotoxin. As a result of its unnatural structure, your body processes the amino acids found in aspartame very differently from a steak or a piece of fish.
The amino acids in aspartame literally attack your cells, even crossing the blood-brain barrier to attack your brain cells, creating a toxic cellular overstimulation, called excitotoxicity, similar to MSG.
Further, inflammatory bowel disease may be caused or exacerbated by the regular consumption of the popular artificial sweetener Splenda (sucralose), as it inactivates digestive enzymes and alters gut barrier function.2
Previous research also found that sucralose can destroy up to 50 percent of your beneficial gut flora.”
That is why the mission of Upbeet is to help teach people that creating energy can be naturally with the wonders of mother nature. These types of products are slowly killing the foundation you work so hard to make healthy. The sad part is, a person will not see the effects of these type of products till later in life when the body can no longer ward off against these attacks.
The next time you put a scoop of that artificial pre-workout into your shaker, ask yourself, “Is this worth damaging my body just for an extra dose of energy?”
Go natural, Go Upbeet!

The “Beet” on the Street with Upbeet!
I am always amazed when I do events for Upbeet, how many people have never tried beets. Honestly, what’s surprising is that the generation from the mid 30’s and older, have tried and mostly enjoy the taste, but the younger generation mostly have never tasted beets before. As a beet lover, I will agree the taste of raw beets is very “earthy” yet sweet. But with seasoning and some baking, beets can be a wonderful and nutritious compliment to any meal. Not to mention, but if you have raw beets, which half my garden is, cutting a chunk off and adding to your dark color smoothie is a healthy boost. Let’s take a look at the power of the beet:
- Raw beets are rich in Vitamin A, B1, B6, C and minerals such as iron, copper, and magnesium. Essential for a healthy immune system.,
- Beet leaves are rich in fiber, which is important for a good digestive system and helping to lower cholesterol.
- Beets are rich in folate which supports the synthesis of DNA in the cells and is extremely important for potential mothers to protect against neural tube defects of unborn babies.
- High in antioxidants that which help neutralize free radical cell that have been known to contribute to chronic diseases like cancer.
- High in dietary nitrates, which your body converts to nitrix oxide, which helps relax and expand blood vessels, allowing more blood flow. Helps lower blood pressure and also shown to improve endurance among athletes in test studies.
Hope that helps shed some light on why you NEED beets in your diet. If you can’t get past the taste of beets, than you need to try Upbeet Endurance Drink, which each scoop is the equivalent of consuming 2-3 whole beets with leaves!
