What it is

Red beet powder is made from dried and ground red beets. Beets are root vegetables known for their vibrant red color. The powder is created by dehydrating beets and then milling them into a fine powder.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use red beet powder primarily as a natural food coloring agent, imparting a red or pink hue. It is found in a variety of products including pickles, relishes, pastries, and snacks where a visual appeal is desired.

Health notes

Red beet powder is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a food ingredient. It is a source of betalains, which are antioxidants. International bodies like EFSA have evaluated beet pigments for safety. At typical consumption levels, it is not associated with adverse health effects.

Allergen info

Red beet powder is not derived from any of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It is also gluten-free.
