Upbeet was started in February, 2015 as an alternative to Pre-workout exercise powders that potentially contain large amounts of artificial chemicals and dangerous levels of “energy-increasing” ingredients that can be harmful to consumers. Upbeet is a 100% organic and all-natural endurance powder that uses the nitric oxide enducing benefits of raw beet root, and blends other powerful organic fruits that contain high amounts of anthocyanins. This dark pigment, like beet root, has been proven in studies to increase blood vessel size allowing more blood to flow to working muscles. The resulting effect shown in numerous studies, is an increase in endurance output up to 16%.
My name is Darren Stroh, I currently hold a Master’s Degree in Exercise Science, and a certification with the National Academy of Sports Medicine as a Corrective Exercise Specialist. I began Upbeet after my brother and I were using a popular Pre-workout on the market, containing high amounts of caffeine, creatine, and artificial flavors. After a routine check-up, my brother discovered he had exceptionally high levels of bilirubins in his blood, which is a toxin found in the liver. Speculating it might be the pre-workout, he discountinued for several months and did a recheck. All blood levels were back to normal.
This discovery lead me to begin my search for mother natures most powerful, energy producing ingredients, that those looking for extra energy, can provide, as well as a potential boost to their immune system. My requirements for Upbeet were that it had to be 100% organic, no caffeine, no added sugar, no GMO’s, and nothing artificial. My proprietary blend hit the market in late March, currently through online orders, and attending weekend events that center around fitness and wellness, my approximate sales are around $750 per month after 3 months of consistent social media, and grass roots marketing.
Being earth-friendly conscious, I discovered that my 5.5oz plastic container does not meet the requirements for an eco-friendly product. I am currently looking to make a transition to a Eco-Friendly stand up pouch, that uses 70% less material than my original containers. I am seeking an investment of $850 to make this transition. Every dollar that has been made by Upbeet, has been reinvested back into the business, through promotional giveaways, marketing and graphic fees. Due to the promotional demands, the funds available were not adequate to meet my transition to the new packaging, thus looking for funds to complete this. Thank you for helping our world and bodies become a little bit healthier!
Please pardon our interruption as we transition to our more Eco-Friendly Stand-Up Pouch design for Upbeet Endurance Powder. Our new packaging uses 70% less materials and is fully recyclable. For customers wishing to save money on our new design, we are taking pre-orders on our website at www.getupbeet.com and shipping out 9/1/15.
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 co
ntainer, 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!
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!

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:
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!
Had the pleasure of attending Crossfit Dover 5K and 1.5 mile fitness test to support Spinal Muscular Atrophy. Enjoyed meeting some awesome people, handing out lots of free samples, and providing the winners with a container of Upbeet Endurance Powder.
