Although red beets are not a seasonal product, apples, spinach and carrots are. Together they form a combo of shock for your taste buds and your health.
Let's start with beetroot, a vegetable rich in betanin which helps in the prevention of skin, liver and lung cancer, and is rich in minerals and vitamins. It also has a strong antioxidant power. Carrots are rich in provitamin A (carotene) which helps to maintain a beautiful complexion and are abundant in fiber. Finally, spinach is popular for its high iron content and anti-anemic properties.
