• Vitamin C from beet greens boosts the immune system, and may lower the risk of developing some forms of cancer. Vitamin C helps the body produce collagen, a tissue which helps with wounds and maintaining strong blood vessel walls.
• Beet greens are a good source of potassium, which is important for regulating blood pressure and heart rate. Potassium may help in lowering your risk for high blood pressure.
• Did you know that beet greens contain more iron than spinach? Iron is essential in carrying oxygen throughout the body by promoting the development of haemoglobin, a substance vital to healthy blood cells. Those that are iron-deficient may develop anaemia. Women in particular, and those on plant-based diets may not get enough iron, so eat more of these healthy beet microgreens!
• High in both soluble and insoluble dietary fibber. Eating beet microgreens may help keep you regular and promote healthy gut bacteria.
• Betalains, the phytonutrients in beet microgreens which give them their vibrant red colour are powerful antioxidants. Antioxidants help protect cells from oxidative damage such as that caused by free radicals or toxins and can be anti-inflammatory agents. Both the beetroot and leafy greens contain betalains which also have powerful detoxifying properties.
• Beet microgreens are a natural source of nitrites which may help lower your blood pressure.
• Nitrates present in beet microgreens have been shown to increase the flow of oxygen through our bodies by dilating the arteries and veins, reducing blood pressure and increasing circulation.
