Red beets contain a unique group of antioxidants called betacyanins, which lend the deep red coloring to the vegetable. These antioxidants have the ability to neutralize free radicals - molecules which can be harmful to key cellular structures like DNA, cell membranes, and proteins - by reducing oxidative stress.* Recent research into betacyanins has revealed promising potential for defending against certain disorders caused by oxidative stress.* 

 

Research has revealed that betacyanins, the unique antioxidants found in red beets, differ substantially from anthocyanins, the dark pigments found in grapes. No plant has ever been found that contains both of these antioxidants.

Along with these antioxidants red beets also contain naturally occurring betaine and nitrates. Two compounds that are the reason red beets and beet juice is also being studied for possible support of cardiovascular health and for energy.*
