If you suffer from high blood pressure, it's very beneficial but yes go easy!

So I can eat pickled but not plain .... ie the vacuum packed

No vinegar in food is good for you, Especially cider vinegar.

Unbelievable when roasted, I would eat half with a full meal to slowdown the carb element

The only way to find out if or how it affects your glucose levels is to be your own beetroot guinea pig and use your meter to test. Not every one has the same reaction to carbs in various foods, so we can never tell you exactly what you'll be able to eat, only advise you based on the carbohydrate content.
