beetroot juice weight gain - #28066

Fatima

I am really confused about something with beetroot juice weight gain. A few weeks ago, I started drinking beetroot juice every morning, thinking it would be a great way to get more nutrients while helping my workouts. But now I feel like I'm gaining weight, which is really weird cuz I thought beetroot juice would be healthier. I’ve also noticed my energy levels fluctuating, which is super annoying, like one minute I’m ready to crush my workout, and the next I just want to fall asleep. I checked with my diet, it’s pretty balanced and I still counting calories, but these last couple of weeks I've put on like 3 pounds??? My friends said beetroot juice is great for losing weight but now I’m wondering if the beetroot juice might actually be adding to the weight gain??!? I mean, could it be that it’s too high in sugar? Or am I doing something wrong? I feel frustrated bc I expected to feel lighter or healthier—not gain weight! Anyone else had similar experiences with beetroot juice weight gain? What should I do? Like should I ditch the juice or try something else? Any advice would be super helpful!

Doctors' responses

When it comes to beetroot juice and weight gain, there may be a few factors to consider. Beetroot juice itself is generally low in calories; an 8-ounce serving contains about 70 calories with some natural sugars that could contribute to a slight increase in daily calorie intake if you’re not accounting for it. While it’s not likely solely causing weight gain, those extra calories can add up over time if not balanced elsewhere in your diet. Additionally, variations in energy levels might be related if the sugar content is causing spikes and crashes in blood sugar levels or if you’re not pairing the juice with other nutrient-dense foods that help sustain energy.

Regarding your concerns about weight gain despite tracking calories and maintaining a balanced diet - it’s possible water retention, fluctuations in exercise intensity, or even stress can contribute to what you’re observing on the scale. Drinking beetroot juice shouldn’t fundamentally lead to weight gain, and it contains beneficial nutrients like nitrates which actually help improve exercise endurance and may enhance overall performance.

To address these concerns, you could try monitoring how your body responds to consuming beetroot juice at different times of the day, or maybe consider having it with a protein source which could help balance your energy levels. If the juice remains a constant concern, reducing the quantity or frequency for a few weeks might offer insights into changes tied to its consumption. Maintain regular activity, continue to observe your food intake, and if you persistently feel this isn’t solving the issue, consulting a healthcare provider or a dietitian for more personalized insights might be beneficial.
