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 provides a 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
- Great for respiratory function and protection
