Several studies suggest that dietary nitrates like those found in beets may enhance athletic performance. Nitrates appear to affect physical performance by improving the efficiency of mitochondria, which are responsible for producing energy in your cells.
According to one review, beetroot juice could enhance endurance by increasing how long it takes to become exhausted, boosting cardiorespiratory performance, and improving efficiency for athletes. Promisingly, beet juice has also been shown to improve cycling performance and increase oxygen use by up to 20%
5. May help fight inflammation
Beets contain pigments called betalains, which possess a number of anti-inflammatory properties.
This could benefit several aspects of health, as chronic inflammation has been associated with conditions like obesity, heart disease, liver disease, and cancer.
6. May improve digestive health
One cup of beetroot contains 3.4 grams of fiber, making beets a good fiber source. Fiber bypasses digestion and travels to the colon, where it feeds friendly gut bacteria and adds bulk to stools.
This can promote digestive health, keep you regular, and prevent digestive conditions like constipation, inflammatory bowel disease (IBS), and diverticulitis.
Moreover, fiber has been linked to a reduced risk of chronic diseases, including colon cancer, heart disease, and type-2 diabetes
7. May support brain health
Mental and cognitive functions naturally decline with age, which can increase the risk of neurodegenerative disorders like dementia.
The nitrates in beets may improve brain function by promoting the dilation of blood vessels and thus increasing blood flow to the brain. Particularly, beetroots have been shown to improve blood flow to the frontal lobe of the brain, an area associated with higher level thinking like decision making and working memory
8. May have some anti-cancer properties
Beetroot contains several compounds with cancer-fighting properties, including betaine, ferulic acid, rutin, kaempferol, and caffeic acid
