Why it's good for you:

  • Packed with essential nutrients, beetroots are a fantastic source of fibre, folate, iron, manganese, potassium, and vitamin C. Beetroots and beetroot juice contain natural nitrates which can lead to numerous health benefits such as improved blood flow, lower blood pressure, and increased exercise performance.
  • Tahini (a paste made from ground sesame seeds) contains a compound called sesamol which has found to be anti-inflammatory as it reduces inflammatory and enzymes that promote inflammation
  • Mint is a wonderful herb that doesn’t only boost the flavour of foods but has many health benefits. Mint contains vitamins A, C, E and K and is well known for improving digestion by reducing gas and bloating.
