The cultivation of beets dates all the way back to the 8th century B.C. in the Mediterranean. Throughout history, it has been used and is noted for supporting healthy blood, cardiovascular function, digestion, and even used as an aphrodisiac.
Beets are one of only a few plant foods that contain dietary nitrates. Nitrates convert into nitric oxide, a molecule that dilates blood vessels to help increase blood flow. The nitrates in beet root powder stimulates blood vessels in the brain and support healthy blood and oxygen supplies.
