In the 16th century, Spanish explorers brought beetroot to Europe from the New World. The root vegetable quickly became popular as a food and medicinal herb. Beetroot was used to treat a variety of ailments, including anemia, constipation, and liver problems. It was also used as a natural dye. In the 19th century, beetroot juice was used as a blood tonic. Today, beetroot is still prized for its nutritional value. It is a good source of vitamins A, C, and K, as well as potassium, magnesium, and iron.
