Carrot Beat Salad

Benefits

Beats: will increase your stamina, and also can lower your blood pressure, fight the infections, they help break down toxins in our body, and also have anti cancer properties. They are high in immune-boosting vitamin C, fiber, and essential minerals like potassium (essential for healthy nerve and muscle function) and manganese (which is good for your bones, liver, kidneys, and pancreas). Beets also contain the B vitamin folate, which helps reduce the risk of birth defects.

Carrots: help fight inflammation in your body, improve memory, lower cholesterol and of course, every one knows this one, they are good for your vision. But what some people do not know is that baby carrots are NOT the same as actual carrots. They rather are less-than-perfect carrots that have been shaved down to a smaller size. Not only are baby carrots more expensive than whole carrots, they’re also typically given a chlorine wash to prolong shelf life.
