Beetroot has been ranked among the 10 most potent antioxidant vegetables.
In particular, beetroot contains the reddish to violet betalain pigments (a type of betacyanins) which has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
Beetroot is also rich in nitrates, which helps to boost our body’s levels of nitric oxide – a gas naturally occurring in our body that tells our blood vessels to expand (vasodilate), increasing blood flow and lowering blood pressure.
The nitrates content in beetroot help support exercise endurance, improve athlete performance, and also help bring more oxygen to the muscle cells, enabling more efficient muscle recovery.
Beetroot is also a rich source of essential vitamins and minerals, including folate, vitamin B6, calcium, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, copper and zinc.
