About Beetroots

Beetroots, often referred to simply as beets, are nutrient-rich root vegetables commonly associated with Eastern European, Mediterranean, and American cuisines. Known for their vibrant red-purple color, beets are a good source of essential vitamins and minerals such as folate, potassium, manganese, and vitamin C. They also contain dietary nitrates, which may support heart health and improve blood circulation. Low in calories and high in fiber, beets are excellent for digestion and can help promote a feeling of fullness. Additionally, their antioxidants, such as betalains, contribute to reducing inflammation and combatting oxidative stress. Though beets are naturally sweet, their sugar content is relatively moderate, making them a healthy addition to salads, soups, and smoothies. People prone to kidney stones should moderate their intake due to their oxalate content. Versatile and nutritious, beets are a flavorful way to enhance a balanced diet.
