History
Beetroot has been cultivated since ancient times, with origins tracing back to the Mediterranean region around 2,000 BC. Initially, only the beet greens were consumed, while the roots gained popularity later as both food and medicine. Ancient Romans used beetroot for its health benefits, especially for improving digestion and blood circulation. By the Middle Ages, beetroot was valued across Europe as a natural remedy and food source. With the advent of modern food processing, dehydration techniques were developed to extend shelf life, giving rise to Beetroot Flakes, which preserve the vegetable’s nutritional richness and vibrant color while offering convenience in culinary and health applications.
