This ingredient is found in most homes, and you surely have it at home: sugar.
But, if you take care of your health or want to start doing it, you need to know which is the best type of sugar to have at home, right?
Today, we have lots of sugar options on market shelves: granulated, refined, organic, brown, and beet sugar... Beet sugar? That's right!
Beet is a root from the Beta vulgaris species, belonging to the family Chenopodiaceae, and is used mainly on salads and soups.
Some of the health benefits of beets are lowering blood pressure, preventing some types of cancer, liver cleansing, improvement of anemia and libido.
Beet also maintains healthy skin and prevents eye problems from developing, like cataracts and macular degeneration.
Beets can be either red or white, and although both are from the same family, white beets contain more sugar, making them better for producing beet sugar.
This is also why white beets are commonly called sugar beets.
Beet sugar is highlighted for being more nutritious. Contrary to refined sugar, it doesn't lose too many vitamins and minerals during its production, preserving its antioxidants and fiber.
Let's see the benefits of using beet sugar:
Source of energy Beet sugar is a natural and healthier source of energy.

You can use beet sugar to sweeten juices, teas, coffee, cakes, brownies, cookies, syrups, and so on.
It is worth noting that, like all other sugars, beet sugar can't be consumed in excess since it increases the risk of diabetes and excessive weight gain.
