Beetroot

The beetroot is the taproot portion of a beet plant, the leaves have a bitter taste whereas the round root is sweet. Beetroot provides a wide range of possible health benefits, such as reducing blood pressure, improving digestion, and lowering the risk of diabetes.

Further information

Beetroot is of exceptional nutritional value, especially the greens, which are rich in calcium, iron and vitamins A and C. Beetroots are an excellent source of folic acid and a very good source of fibre, manganese and potassium. The greens should not be overlooked – they can be cooked up and enjoyed in the same way as spinach.

Typically a rich purple colour, beetroot can also be white or golden. Due to its high sugar content, beetroot is delicious eaten raw but is more typically cooked or pickled.
