September 5, 2022 Ingredient Spotlight: Beetroot Share on: This week’s spotlight features a powerful ingredient that not only graces our plates as a favorite fall vegetable, but is an important part of one of our most popular products. What Is Beetroot? Beetroot (Beta vulgaris) is the root portion of a beet plant (as you might imagine), and it is commonly consumed as a vegetable. Beetroot’s therapeutic uses go back to Greek and Roman times, where they likely originated. Beets have a vibrant deep red color due to the high betalain content, a potent antioxidant found in red and purple fruits and vegetables. Beetroot is also a rich source of other antioxidants, such as carotenoids, flavonoids, and phenolic acids. It is also high in iron and vitamins A, B6, and B9. Beetroot Benefits With its powerful combination of antioxidants, vitamins A and B6, and iron, beetroot may help protect the liver from oxidative stress while supporting its ability to remove toxins from the body. Additionally, beetroot is rich in folate, or vitamin B9, which helps cell development and function. Folate has also been shown to support blood and heart health. Even more, beetroots are also high in nitrates, which turn to Nitric Oxide in the body. As you might have heard about while experiencing our many nitro-powered products, Nitric Oxide is key for promoting blood flow and providing oxygen to muscles and tissues. This helps boost performance, optimize digestion, support blood pressure, and much more.
