Beetroot is a very useful vegetable on our table. It is well preserved vitamins A, B and C, folic acid. Beetroot is rich in cellulose and various trace elements (iron, magnesium, phosphorus), and, in addition, favorably affects the work of the intestine and the circulation of blood in the body. All this makes it simply irreplaceable in the children's diet. To introduce this vegetable as a complementary food can be no earlier than 8-10 months. Do not forget that beet is a wonderful source of energy due to the significant content of carbohydrates, which are so necessary for the growing body of the child.
