Description

Latin Name : Beta Vulgaris

Origin Country: China

Beta vulgaris (beet) is a species of flowering plant in the subfamily Betoideae of the family Amaranthaceae. Economically, it is the most important crop of the large order Caryophyllales. People can add beetroot powder to sauces, smoothies, and doughs. It has a mild, slightly sweet taste.

Beets have many helpful plant compounds that reduce inflammation and protect cells from damage.

Beetroot and its juice help your heart and lungs work better during exercise. Nitric oxide from beets increases blood flow to your muscles.

Beets are rich in folate (vitamin B9) which helps cells grow and function. Folate plays a key role in controlling damage to blood vessels, which can reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke.

Beets are high in fiber and promote the growth of good bacteria in your gut. Having plenty of healthy bacteria in your digestive system helps fight disease and boost your immune system. Fiber also improves digestion and reduces the risk of constipation.

Beetroot nutrients include folate—a vitamin that helps keep your blood vessels healthy—and potassium to help protect your heart.

Dried beetroot in the form of powder are a good alternative to use in our food. It is not necessary to hydrate if we boil them. It finds application in soups, cake and smoothies.

Beet is LIKELY SAFE for most people when taken in the amounts typically found in foods and for medical issues. Beet can make urine or stools appear pink or red. But this is not harmful. There is concern that beets might cause low calcium levels and kidney damage. But this hasn't been shown in people.
