Beets are packed with nutrients and low in calories, making them a dieter’s delight. The roots are an excellent source of folate, fiber, and beta-carotene. The betalains, or pigments, found in all colored beets add phytonutrients and antioxidants. The greens are a good source of fiber, high in calcium and iron, and packed with vitamins A, C, and K.
