Who would have thought the humble Beetroot may improve athletic performance and even reduce muscle ache from some types of exercise!
Not only that, Beetroot is a powerful health-promoting root veggie rich in essential nutrients including folate and iron.
Hardly surprising when you consider its rich dark ruby purple colour which as we know is always a good indicator of special benefits in foods.
But that’s not all
The Beetroot exercise boost comes from increasing nitric oxide availability, which also providesa natural defence against respiratory illness.
The unique colour pigments in Beetroot exert a range of healthy effects, especially in the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory departments.
Beetroot, a superfood bar none:
- Naturally sweet and not too acidic
- A health-promoting functional food
- Highly nutritious and bioactive
- Rich in dietary nitrate
