About Beetroot leaves
Beetroot leaves, also known as beet greens, are the leafy tops of the beetroot plant and pack a nutritional punch. Commonly used in Mediterranean, Eastern European, and South Asian cuisines, these greens offer a slightly earthy flavor with a hint of bitterness. Rich in vitamins A, C, and K, beet leaves are also an excellent source of fiber, potassium, and iron, making them beneficial for maintaining healthy eyesight, boosting immunity, and supporting heart and bone health. In addition, they provide antioxidants like betalains, which may help fight inflammation and oxidative stress. Low in calories and naturally fat-free, beet greens are a healthy addition to salads, soups, stir-fries, or smoothie blends. However, individuals prone to kidney stones or managing oxalate intake should moderate their consumption due to the greens' naturally high oxalate content. Overall, beet leaves are a versatile and nutritious addition to any diet.
