Beet Root Powder/Juice Powder/Extract
Beetroot is a nutritious root vegetable rich in nitrates, dietary fiber, antioxidants and a variety of vitamins and minerals. Its main functions include promoting cardiovascular health, improving digestion, enhancing immunity, and may help improve athletic performance.
- Promote cardiovascular health
- High nitrate content: Nitrates in beetroot are converted into nitric oxide in the body, which can dilate blood vessels, lower blood pressure, improve blood flow, and reduce the burden on the heart.
- Antioxidant effect: Betalain (a natural pigment) and vitamin C can reduce oxidative damage to blood vessels and reduce the risk of arteriosclerosis.
- Improve digestive function
- Rich in dietary fiber: Every 100 grams of beetroot contains about 2.8 grams of dietary fiber, which can promote intestinal peristalsis, relieve constipation, and maintain the balance of intestinal flora.
- Natural prebiotics: The oligofructose in beetroot provides nutrients for beneficial bacteria, indirectly enhancing intestinal health.
- Enhance immunity and anti-inflammatory
- Betalain antioxidant: This pigment has a strong ability to scavenge free radicals, which may reduce chronic inflammation and help reduce the risk of cancer.
- Vitamin C and folic acid: Supports the production of immune cells, helps the body resist infection, and folic acid is also involved in DNA repair.
- Improve exercise endurance
- Nitric oxide effect: By improving blood circulation, beetroot juice may prolong exercise endurance and reduce fatigue.
- Improve oxygen utilization: Studies have shown that after consuming beetroot juice, the efficiency of muscle oxygen utilization is improved, which is suitable for supplementation before exercise.
- Blood tonic and nutritional supplements
- Iron and folic acid: Beetroot contains iron and folic acid, which can help prevent iron deficiency anemia, but the absorption rate of plant iron is low. It is recommended to eat it with vitamin C foods (such as citrus).
- Rich in minerals: potassium (regulates blood pressure), magnesium (supports nerve function), manganese (participates in metabolism), etc.
