Healthy, because
Organic substances called betazyans not only give beetroot its intense colour - the flavonoids also act as natural cell protectors. In addition, the vegetables provide the mineral iron, which is especially important for women, and vitamins of the B group, including B12 and folic acid.

The fennel brings aniseed aroma and has a beneficial effect on an irritated, bloated intestine and an increased blood fat level; the tuber vegetable also has a purifying effect.
