Beets are a blood tonic, which makes them great for treating anemia, heart conditions, liver conditions and circulation. They are high in folic acid, vitamins A, C, B1, B2, B3, and beta-carotene, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and potassium.
They go great on top of a salad, in stir-fry or blended in a vegetable juice.
Have a healthy and fit day!
Hi Kelly,
I have enjoyed reading your blog! Today’s Food for Thought made me think of my grandmother. Maybe we need to bring the beets back into food-style :)!
Brooke, thank you for your input and thoughts! If I could predict, I bet beets do make a come back this year or next. They are so amazing and good for us! History seems to have a way to repeat itself but we will see. Have a healthy and fit day! Kelly
