Red vegetables get their color โ and their nutrition โ from lycopene and anthocyanins. Lycopene has been shown to reduce heart disease risk, protect the eyes, and fight infections, while anthocyanins may decrease the risk of brain disorders, cancer, and cardiovascular disease. Beets alone deliver the highest antioxidants of all the red veggies, along with folate, iron, potassium, vitamin C, and natural nitrates that improve blood flow and endurance.
Best for: Heart health, immune support, anti-inflammation, and antioxidant protection.
