Other Health Benefits

Its important to note two other areas of potential health benefits associated with beets: anti cancer benefits and fiber related benefits. The combination of antioxidant and anti inflammatory molecules in beets makes this food a highly likely candidate for risk reduction of many cancer types. Lab studies on human tumor cells have confirmed this possibility for colon, stomach, nerve, lung, breast, prostate and testicular cancers. Eventually, we expect to see large scale human studies that show the risk reducing effect of dietary beet intake for many of these cancer types.
