Nutritional values

If you are looking for a source of phosphorus, you have it with chicken. Together with calcium, the mineral strengthens teeth and bones. People with high blood pressure should regularly eat beets. In addition to nitrate, it also contains a lot of potassium - these two substances have been shown to lower levels.

Veggies don't have to miss out on the beet salad - it also goes great with baked feta from the oven or grilled halloumi.
