Why is universal indicator better then natural indicators such as red cabbage and beetroot juice?

Universal indicators are typically more effective than natural indicators like red cabbage or beetroot juice because they provide a continuous range of color changes across the pH spectrum, allowing for precise pH measurements. In contrast, natural indicators often show limited color variations and may only indicate specific pH ranges, making them less reliable for accurate assessments. Additionally, universal indicators are usually standardized and more consistent in their responses, while the color changes in natural indicators can be influenced by factors such as temperature and light.
