POWER IN THE BEET GREENS


 WHY THIS VEGETABLE IS VERY IMPORTANT TO HAVE

 BEET ROOTS is a very important vegetable that no matter the amount of sugar in it, the body still needs it for its purpose.


Beet roots have always been included in my most recommended vegetable list, although they are in the "use sparingly" category because of their high carbohydrate levels.
Although beets have the highest sugar content of all vegetables, most people can safely eat beet roots a few times a week (and their greens in unlimited quantities), enjoying not only their sweet, earthy flavor but also their powerhouse nutrients that may improve your health in the following ways.

FEW BENEFITS 

* Lower Your Blood Pressure
* Anti-Cancer Properties
* Boost Your Stamina
* Detoxification Support
* Rich in Valuable Nutrients and Fiber
* Fight Inflammation




Without many people knowing,they dont pay attention to the leaves which serves even more nutrients
If you simply throw away the green leafy tops to your beets, you're doing yourself a disservice, as these are among the healthiest part of the plant.
Besides containing important nutrients like protein, phosphorus, zinc, fiber, vitamin B6, magnesium, potassium, copper, and manganese, beet greens also supply significant amounts of vitamin A, vitamin C, calcium, and iron.
Beet greens actually have even more iron than spinach (another leafy green in the same botanical family) as well as a higher nutritional value overall than the beetroot itself.

BEETROOT
  • Help ward off osteoporosis by boosting bone strength
  • Fight Alzheimer's disease
  • Strengthen your immune system by stimulating the production of antibodies and white blood cells
If you've never tried beet greens before, don't let them intimidate you. They can be added raw to vegetable juice or sautéed lightly right along with other greens like spinach.
