WHY BEETS?!!
Here are the amazing possible health benefits of beets:
Rich in Antioxidants
Beets contain a unique antioxidant called betalain, which helps protect cells from damage and reduces inflammation.
Supports Natural Detoxification
Beets support the body’s natural detoxification processes, helping to remove toxins and waste products.
Supports Healthy Digestion
Beets are high in fiber, which can help promote healthy digestion, prevent constipation, and support the growth of beneficial gut bacteria.
May Help Reduce Anemia Risk
Beets are rich in iron, which can help reduce the risk of anemia and improve oxygen delivery to the body’s tissues.
Supports Healthy Bones
Beets are a good source of boron, a mineral that’s essential for maintaining healthy bones and preventing osteoporosis.
