beetroot is packed with nutrients. The root and green tops contain antioxidant pigments. The beet root's color is a complex mixture of nitrogen-containing water-soluble pigments called betalains. The betalains are potent antioxidants, that act as anti-inflammatory molecules. Antioxidants reduce oxidative stress and inflammation linked to heart disease.
beet juice contains betaine which protects cells, proteins, and enzymes from environmental stress such as dehydration, excess salt, or extreme temperature.
they are rich in another methyl donor - folate (folic acid).
they contain tryptophan is the amino acid that builds serotonin in the body. Serotonin is well known for its importance in proper mood and sleep.
the inorganic nitrate content of beetroot is one of the best concentrated sources. When ingested, nitrate is reduced to nitrite which then becomes the molecular powerhouse called nitric oxide (N-O). N-O is the master of regulation and controls blood flow to every organ and tissue.
Beets contain simple carbohydrates lending natural sweetness, but beets are also very nutrient-dense which qualifies them as sensible energy fuel source. Beets deliver about 2 grams of protein per serving and have a low fat content.
