Features of Beetroot powder
EssentialSeries RedBeet Powder is a source of protein, and:
- Low in sugar.

The salt content comes exclusively from the sodium naturally present in the food.
Culinary uses
Beetroot is a popular vegetable and in its native state can be eaten boiled, pickled, or grated raw in a salad.
In powdered form, it can be used in recipes such as the famous Ukrainian soup: borscht, which has beetroot as the main ingredient.
Beetroot juice can be made by diluting a serving with 150-200 ml of water, obtaining a sweet drink that's perfect for maximising its flavour.
