Benefits of Beetroot
- Beetroot contains folic acid, which is essential for normal tissue growth. It is also therefore regarded as an important dietary inclusion for women planning a pregnancy.
- Beetroot contains the mineral silica. This helps the body to utilise calcium, which is important for musculo-skeletal health and is also required for healthy skin, hair, nails and bones.
- Beetroot is virtually fat-free and low in calories. Although it has a medium GI (Glycaemic Index) of 64, it has an extremely low GL (Glycaemic Load) of 2.9, which means it is converted into sugars very slowly and therefore helps to keep blood sugar levels stable.
- Beetroot helps to boost stamina and, due to its high iron content, helps with anaemia and fatigue syndrome – this is an organic form of iron (non-irritating). Young beetroot leaves are a better source of iron than spinach!
- Recent research has declared beetroot a “mood food”. It has been shown to stimulate the brain and contain the compound betaine, which enhances the production of the body’s natural mood-enhancer, serotonin.
- Beetroot can help to support the immune system, through its extraordinary range of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients (particularly antioxidants), which mean our bodies are better able to fight off infection. These nutrients help to stimulate the re-oxygenation of cells and the production of new blood cells.
- The cellulose content of the beet acts as a bulk residue, increasing peristalsis. Its regular use therefore prevents habitual constipation.
- Betaine in beetroot also helps individuals with hypochlorhydria, a condition causing abnormally low levels of stomach acid, by increasing stomach acidity.
- Beetroot supports many organs, including the key detoxification organs like the liver, gallbladder, spleen and kidneys
