The beautiful red-purple color of beetroot is evidence of the amazing plant pigments known as carotenoids. While it is believed that there are at least 500 of these natural compounds, only a handful have been analyzed, with beta-carotene being the best known.
Research on other carotenoids, such as lycopene and lutein (both of which are present in PINES Wheat Grass) suggests they do a lot to support optimum health. The more we know, the more the common refrain, “Eat your vegetables,” is proven correct.
