Natural Cures and Home Remedies - Beetroot
Used for medicinal purposes for centuries, beetroot has a robust nutritional value, whether consumed raw, cooked, pickled or juiced. Beetroot has been used to treat blood disorders like anaemia since they are an excellent source of iron and iodine. In addition to supplying the body with vital nutrients and boosting immunity, they also provide the body with potent antioxidants.
Nutrition Profile:
Folate, Manganese, Potassium, Copper, Fiber, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Vitamin C, Iron, Vitamin B6, Choline
Beets are packed with betalains and polyphenols, both of which are capable of reversing free radical damage and oxidative stress.
Beets contain numerous minerals:- Copper, which destroys free radicals; Iodine, which takes part in biosynthesis of thyroid hormones; Iron and Phosphorus which produce energy; Magnesium which promotes bone health; and Potassium and Folate, which promotes heart health.
Beets are high in pectin content. This substance provides various benefits, such as inhibiting the spread of detrimental intestinal bacteria, preventing the onset of various diseases, and dealing with removal of toxic waste and radioactive metals from the system.
Beets are high in nitrates, which turn into nitrites when metabolized. It has been scientifically shown that nitrites open up blood vessels, improving blood flow and helping oxygen reach areas which are deprived of it. Consequently, beets work as an excellent preventative measure against dementia.
Cobalt found in beets stimulates the production of vitamin B12 which has critical role in the formation of red blood cells.
Beets contain vitamins like B complex, which are known to strengthen the capillary walls. Beets contain an antioxidant known as alpha-lipoic acid, which may help lower glucose levels, increase insulin sensitivity and prevent oxidative stress-induced changes in patients with diabetes.
Choline is a very important and versatile nutrient in beetroot that helps with sleep, muscle movement, learning, and memory. Choline also helps to maintain the structure of cellular membranes, aids in the transmission of nerve impulses, assists in the absorption of fat and reduces chronic inflammation.
Beets also promote easier digestion of vitamin D in our bodies.
Beets boost metabolism in an all-natural way.
Due to the high dietary fiber content, beets improve digestion and help treat problems caused by indigestion.
Betacyanins found in beets inhibit the growth of cancerous cells.
Beets contain betalain pigments, which makes them an excellent tool for removing toxic waste from the body.
Beets contain folic acid, which stimulates the production of new cells and thus rejuvenates our bodies.
