SUPERFOOD // BEETS

Beets contain a high concentration of nitrates which are then converted to nitrites, most well known to help open blood vessels in the body and increase blood flow and oxygen to the brain. It’s said that this increase of blood flow to the brain can help to stave off the progression of dementia. It also contains betaine, an amino acid that protects proteins and enzymes from external stressors that can trigger inflammation in the body. All the more reason to enjoy my Chocolate Beet Smoothie bowl as a brain-boosting breakfast!
