Health benefits of beet juice

Alexander Miroshnikov, a candidate of biological sciences and nutritionist, said on the program "About the most important" on "Russia 1" that beet juice should be used to prevent heart and blood vessel diseases.

According to the specialist, beet juice can protect against the development of stroke and heart attack, as it contains flavanoids that reduce the level of "bad" cholesterol in the blood.

Miroshnikov noted that this cholesterol is the main cause of heart and vascular diseases in most cases.

Thus, the nutritionist recommended to include 250 ml of the drink in your daily diet in order to protect yourself from cardiovascular diseases, in particular heart attacks and strokes, VSE42.RU reports.
