You may be most familiar with the red beet, but beets come in a variety of colors. One variety is orange, and is known as the golden beet. A descendant of a sea vegetable, orange beets are a nutrient-rich food low in calories and high in fiber and potassium. The difference between the red and the orange beet is the pigment compound. Red beets are rich in betalain pigment while orange beets are rich in b-xanthin pigment. Though their pigment color differs, their nutritional benefits are the same.

Red Radishes - Ontario Grown Great addition to a salad or lunch box! Like other vegetables of the brassica family (cabbage, broccoli, brussels sprouts etc), radishes contain two natural compounds, sulforaphane and indole-3, which in animal and lab studies have shown an anti-cancer action. It is thought that these antioxidant substances may slow or stop the growth of several different types of cancer, possibly by prompting the body to make higher levels of detoxifying enzymes. Since we generally eat radishes raw, we benefit from this nutritional benefit as these compounds are depleted by cooking. Radishes also give you a significant amount of vitamin C to boost your defences against disease. |
