Eat more Beets for Your Heart, Brain, and Endurance

In addition to bringing a pop of colour to your smoothies, beets have an impressive nutritional profile. They are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Beets are especially rich in folate, a vitamin that plays a key role in growth, development, and heart health. Beets help your heart by lowering blood pressure. They are rich in inorganic nitrates, which the body converts to nitric oxide—this helps the blood vessels to dilate, reducing blood pressure and increasing blood flow. Increased blood flow to the brain supports mental and cognitive function.

We have these nitrates to thank again when it comes to improved circulation. Beets increase blood flow to your muscles and improving physical performance making them an UN-BEET-ABLE vegetable.
