Episode Synopsis

Beets are great vegetables to include in your diet. Beets contain a wide range of benefits that can keep you healthy. They are rich in nitrates, which are converted into nitric oxide in the body. Nitric oxide helps relax and widen blood vessels, leading to lower blood pressure and improved circulation. Nitrates in beets have been shown to enhance athletic performance by improving oxygen uptake and reducing muscle fatigue. Beets contain several B vitamins, which may protect against dementia and memory loss by improving blood flow to the brain. The high fiber content in beets promotes healthy digestion, reduces constipation, and supports healthy gut microbiome. The vegetable can help reduce inflammation in the body, provide a great source of antioxidants, which help protect cells from damage and reduce the risk of chronic diseases like heart disease and cancer. In addition, beets contain vitamins C, A, and K, which are all important for bone health. They are high in folate (vitamin B9), which is essential for red blood cell formation. They contain a good source of potassium, which helps regulate blood pressure and supports heart health and help lower LDL (bad) cholesterol levels. So, whether in a salad or by itself make sure you include beets in your next meal.  To subscribe to the channel, click the link below: 👇  https://www.youtube.com/@CLUBSEATNETWORK?sub_confirmation=1
