For a while I have been seeing the commercials on TV for a product called Super Beets, and I kind of wanted to try it. But it's VERY expensive stuff. But as I get older I do feel my energy level is less, and of course I do not feel as good now at 47 as I did at 17, 27, or 37.
So, I have been making subtle changes.
Today, when I was at Walmart, I decided to try a different brand of this beet product, and it is much less expensive at around $15 for 30 days supply. I will start using it and see if I notice any difference, and if I do I will keep taking it.
Have you found any supplements that work well for you?

Let us know if you see any benefit. I use several supplements and I do know Biotin (B7) has helped my hair thicken up some.

@porwest I have two words for you. Hair color.

@1creekgirl To me it is unmanly to dye hair. But that's probably just me.

Apparently this supplement does not taste like beets at all. It's supposedly cherry flavored.
That being said, I actually like beets. But I was not always that way. When I met my wife she often ate beets and I turned up my nose. And then I would make some now and again so she could have them, and eventually came to be fond of them.
But they have to be canned. I cannot eat fresh beets.

I will see. I took the first 'dose' today. It definitely tastes like beets with a little hint of cherry. It was interesting to say the least. I stomached it. I marked it on my calendar and will report back in a week to see if there is any 'change' or 'effect.'
I guess the only good thing is the older I get the more conscious, aware, and concerned about my health I become.
I am not getting any younger, and I want to be around for a very long time.

Let us know how it works (or doesn't work) for you. I take Calcium, Vitamin D3, a Senior Vitamin and Fish Oil for my dry eye. They all serve their purposes.

@porwest Sounds like a plan. I think I may go back to Flaxseed Oil for my dry eye. It seems to work better. (along with the prescription drops)

They do, and although none of them are necessarily proven, I still take what I think is good for this thing or that thing.
Right now I take vitamin C, vitamin D, a multi, N.A.C., and now this beet stuff. I may add Omega-3 into the mix as well.

Beets are good for you. I have a product I take when I remember to. I even have a reminder on Alexa to take it.

Cool! I am glad to read about this. I just bought a bottle of something similar from Amazon, a BEET ROOT that is supposed to assist with breathing better, stamina and endurance. I have NOT yet used it. Let me know what you think about this, if you can.
I have used "super greens' that feel like they give me a little bit of energy (and clean my guts out - sorry for the TMI). Lol.

Most of the time I'd prefer getting the nutrients straight from the source as well. But I think sometimes it is harder. In the case of this supplement one serving is essentially three beets. It would be unlikely I would eat three beets AND eat them every single day.
Not sure if it is nutritional overall. But we'll see.

Depending on the kind of body I would like to have I would decide whether drinking supplements or not. They're indeed so good to build up muscles, however you have to work out so you can see further results. Good luck with that!

What beats can do for man's health? I don't know that.
Mine supplements are vitamin C and B complex.
