Boost Stamina
Everyone aspires to have enduring strength or energy and to maintain it at all cost. This is because we all need strength to run our day to day activities. Most people need a whole lot of strength compared with others. Example of such people is athletes and workers who engage themselves in hard labor. Beet or beetroot as it is commonly known helps to boost stamina and provides strength.

This root contains a property called nitrate which aids to reduce oxygen uptake and make exercise less tiring. [1]
