Beetroot is a root vegetable also known as ‘Beet’ or ‘Chukunder’. It has recently gained popularity as a superfood due to the presence of essential nutrients such as folate, potassium, iron and vitamin C.
Beetroot is beneficial for the skin due to its anti-ageing property. It’s juice can be applied on the face to get youthful looking skin. Consuming Beetroot on a daily basis, in the form of raw salads, might be effective in managing anemia as it increases the concentration of iron in the blood. Beetroot is also rich in antioxidants that help promote healthy functioning of the heart which therefore helps in the management of blood pressure. It is also known to have aphrodisiac properties that help improve sexual desire in men as well as manage erectile dysfunction.
Excessive consumption of Beetroot might sometimes make stools or urine red or pink in colour. Beetroot is also extensively used as a coloring agent in the food industry.
