Beetroot juice for health

We all know that getting our five a day is a prerequisite for good health and that some fruit and vegetables are more ‘super’ than others. You can read on this page of its health benefits but when it comes to lowering blood pressure, the juice is the way to go with recent studies suggesting that drinking 500ml of beetroot juice a day can significantly reduce blood pressure.

Leading drinks manufacturer, James White Drinks realised the potential of Beetroot back in 2006 when it launched Organic Beetroot Juice - a delicious pressed vegetable juice which offers fantastic health benefits as well as a delicious and refreshing taste.

Lawrence Mallinson, Managing Director of James White Drinks had his eye on the purple vegetable following a visit to Poland and saw the potential to bring it to the drinks market.

He comments: “I grew up with the horror of pickled school beetroot! In Poland they serve it unpickled and it was a revelation, it tastes absolutely delicious. But the real bonus is how good it is for you. We’ve always known that beetroot is a great source of vitamins and minerals as it is rich in iron, boron and folic acid, as well as being high in antioxidants, however this latest research is phenomenal.”

If you want to try beetroot juice and see the benefits for yourself, James White Drinks Organic Beetroot Juice is stocked in Sainsbury’s and Waitrose and in many independent retail outlets.
