Vegan soup with beetroot and finch
If you are a soup fan and generally like beetroot, then this beetroot combination, finely ground with onion, garlic and spices, will excite you.
In fact, since we will find beets a little easier from time to time, let us know that:
- They are rich in carbohydrates, nitrates, magnesium, iron, potassium, sodium, phosphorus, vitamin C, vitamin B1, B2, B6, B5 (pantothenic acid), fiber and nutrients such as.
- The red color of beetroot bulb is due to pigments called betalines and they have strong antioxidant effect. A well-studied beta-xanthine is bulgaxanthin. Both betanin and bulgaxanthin are contained in beetroot and have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and cardioprotective properties.
- Exeter University research has shown that beetroot juice can improve our stamina so we can work out 16% more.
- Their juice helps lower blood pressure. In particular, the amount of nitrate is the one that has the beneficial - for high pressure - properties. This is done by converting the nitrate (with saliva) into nitrite.
