Beetroot and Parsley Salad Recipe
We all know beetroot promotes blood purification and helps remove toxins from our body. But, did you know that adding beetroot to your meal can also banish acne and impart a natural flush to your skin?
The rich iron content increases the hemoglobin levels in the body and facilitates the transportation of oxygen in the blood cells. It also boasts of a solid antioxidant, vitamin C and Vitamin B6 profile, all of which are necessary to combat damage caused due to sun exposure, pollution, and aging.
