Beetroots are a nutritional powerhouse, loaded with essential nutrients like folate, manganese, potassium, vitamin C, and fiber. They act as antioxidants, fighting off harmful elements and reducing inflammation. Good for the heart, beetroots lower blood pressure and diminish the risk of heart issues. Ideal for exercise, beetroot juice enhances stamina and reduces fatigue. They may boost brain function and blood flow, and their anti-inflammatory properties lower the risk of chronic diseases. They also aid the liver in detoxifying the body, and their low calorie, high fiber content makes them a weight-friendly choice. Some studies even suggest a potential protective role against certain cancers.
The vibrant pink or deep red color which it can give to the dishes is almost irresistible. Let’s see some of the popular beetroot recipes from my blog.
