FAQs
- What are the benefits of beetroot?
  
  Each bar is packed with the equivalent of a medium sized beet and therefore the associated dietary nitrates. The health and performance benefits of nitrates are widely researched, you can read in more detail about how nitrates can boost your performance. Dietary nitrates cause a Nitric Oxide boost in the blood which in turn can help lower blood pressure and improve arterial blood flow through vasodilation of capillaries. This enhanced blood flow has been found to aid sporting performance in a range of research trials and studies.
- How do I use the POWR bars?
  
  1) For the performance-driven we recommend 1 - 2 bars daily for 3 days before you compete; this is because dietary nitrates have been shown to boost blood nitrite levels and aid performance. Another bar around 2-3 hours before competition will keep blood nitrite at peak levels. Read more about the importance of nitrates for athletes here.
  2) Secondly the beetroot Pow® Plant bars are endurance energy bars, so they’re perfect for eating out on a longer ride, run or hike - anytime you need to keep your energy topped up. VOOM ambassadors have used them to great effect as part of their strategy during ultra-running events, triathlons and even around climbing competitions.
  3) Pow® plant energy bars can also make a healthy snack bar as part of your daily life for example when you need a quick snack after work and before you train. They’re also the perfect tasty snack between main meals throughout the day or when you want a light snack before a morning run.

Packed with dietary nitrates to aid blood flow.

Freeze-dried beetroot, a natural dietary nitrate source can boost nitric-oxide levels to aid blood flow.

More Information

Beetroot is now widely accepted as a sports super food... The Pow® Plant vegan energy bar contains naturally occurring dietary nitrate in a tasty, easy to eat form. The bar offers improved blood flow associated with in depth research on beetroot and maintains more consistent energy levels. Since 2007 there's been a steadily growing evidence base that naturally occurring dietary nitrate in beetroot offers positive effects on sporting performance.

Dietary nitrate interacts with saliva in the mouth leading to increased blood nitrite, which makes the chewing of the bar highly effective at activating nitrate conversion. In turn blood nitrite is converted to nitric oxide which is used in the body to signal blood vessels to dilate (widen). This improves blood flow and therefore delivery of oxygen and other vital nutrients to the working muscles, not to mentioned quicker removal of toxins and waste products. Nitric oxide also aids circulation by a thinning effect on the blood. This promotes an improved rate of recovery and with the vasodilation of capillaries thinner blood also helps reduce blood pressure. In addition to the nitrate, the bar keeps you fueled through your day, whatever your activity, with 249 Kcals.

Each beetroot energy bar has 33g of carbs in the form of quick release energy from apple and grape juice, slower release energy from oats plus additional energy in the form of super healthy MCT's (medium chain triglycerides) from coconut oil. The MCTs (medium-chain triglycerides) in coconut oil have several health benefits, but for endurance activity the main bonus is their readily available energy which has been shown to have a sparing effect on the body's limited stores of glycogen.
