not completely unheard of
In fact, the caffeine-free concoction is said to be quite good for women, especially those who are expecting
But it's great for consumption for everyone.1.Natural Detox: Beetroots are rich in phytonutrients called betalains, which have powerful
antioxidant and anti-inflammation properties
These help in natural detoxification of the body.2.Prevents Anaemia: Beetroot tea, when consumed with a little bit of amla juice or amla
powder, can naturally raise levels of iron in the blood, preventing anaemia or iron deficiency.(: Mira Kapoor Is Enjoying Monsoon With This

nitrates, which naturally regulate blood pressure, by increasing nitric oxide in blood vessels, allowing more oxygen towards the brain,
heart and muscles.4.Great For Skin: Beetroot tea can help your skin regain a natural glow, as it is a great blood purifier
The beet concoction is also rich in vitamin C, which clears skin blemishes and evens the skin tone.5.Improves Digestion: The presence of

veggie tea at home, all you need to do is squeeze half a lemon in two cups of boiling water and then seep some slices of fresh beetroot in
Let the beets seep for about 10 minutes and then add natural sweeteners and ginger or mint to it and enjoy! We hope Mira Kapoor keeps on
