Beetroot Powder (Beta vulgaris) – Dried Herb, Organic

Emerging as a “Super Food” Beetroot is low carbohydrate and packed with nutrients. A helpful nutrient in Beetroot powder is alpha-lipoic acid, which is a powerful antioxidant. In general, antioxidants help to reduce inflammation, minimize oxidative damage and decrease cancer risks. Medical research has found that alpha-lipoic acid is particularly good at managing diabetes symptoms. This antioxidant helps the body to heighten insulin sensitivity. Packed with potassium, Beetroot powder helps regulate the body’s fluids often which is often a frequent supply of unneeded weight.
