If you do any kind of endurance exercise, beets are like very mild doping, except all the side effects are healthy too.

They help with blood flow to your muscles, reduce inflammation, help with red blood cell count, have high water content AND are high in several crucial vitamins and minerals AND dietary fiber.

If you're not crazy about the taste, just mix them in a smoothie with healthy things you DO like. Your body will thank you. Probably not literally, though. Hopefully 🤷🏻
