Organic Beetroot: A Nutrient-Packed Superfood & a Delicious Salad Recipe

Our Pick of the Week from this week's Huckleberry Organic Fruit & Veg Box is the Organic Beetroot.  

From improving athletic performance to supporting liver function, organic beetroot is a nutrient-packed superfood that we recommend to add to your diet. 

Benefits of Beetroot

Organic beetroot is rich in vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, folate, iron, and manganese. It's also low in calories and high in fiber, making it a great choice for weight management and digestive health.

Let's take a look at some of the many benefits of organic beetroot:

Improves Athletic Performance: Organic beetroot contains nitrates, which can increase blood flow and oxygen delivery to muscles. This can improve athletic performance and endurance, making it a favorite among athletes and fitness enthusiasts.

Lowers Blood Pressure: The nitrates in organic beetroot can also help lower blood pressure, making it a great choice for those with hypertension or at risk for heart disease.

Supports Liver Function: Organic beetroot contains betaine, a nutrient that can support liver function and detoxification.

Now, you can reap the benefits of organic beetroot by trying our delicious organic beetroot and goat cheese salad recipe!
