Purpose: Lifestyle modification and sedentary life have led to multiple comorbidities which necessitate exploitation of underutilized novel ingredients in daily life. This comprehensive review aimed at providing valuable insight into the diverse pharmacological activities of beetroot bioactive compounds and their health enhancing properties. Furthermore, this review explored emerging research by scientific community for utilization of beetroot in the development of novel functional food products. Materials and Methods: The scientific studies focusing on the biological activity and therapeutic potential of beetroot for health parameters were included in this study. Database search was made using google scholar, PubMed and research gate which generated a total of 200 papers. Out of which, only 63 met the inclusion criteria of this study. Inclusion criteria included literature focusing on beetroot’s bioavailability, plant pigments, bioactive compounds, health benefits, as well as studies describing food applications. This review includes studies between 2014 and 2023. Findings: The main findings suggested that a prominent bioactive compound and natural betalain pigment in beetroot, exhibits potential anti-inflammatory, anti-carcinogenic and anti-depressive properties. The anti-oxidant activity of betalain is effective against oxidative stress and play a role in preventing and mitigating chronic diseases. Bioactive components including, nitrate content, betanin and betacyanin, potentially modulate blood pressure and promote cardiovascular health. Furthermore, beetroot derived polyphenols, carotenoids, vitamins and minerals contribute to bone health, immune function and overall well-being. Food product development based studies demonstrate an overall improvement in the nutritional and sensory profile. Implications to Theory, Practice and Policy: Further research on bioactive components of multiple varieties of beetroot is recommended to reassess the underlying mechanisms and optimal dosage for unlocking their potential for medicinal, nutraceuticals and dietary interventions. More research is needed by food industrialists and scientists to explore the potential of beetroot pigments as non-synthetic food additives particularly color enhancer in various food formulations.

“…More people consume beets for various reasons, especially for health. Red beets contain betalains, antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and ascorbic acid (Akan et al, 2021). Red beetroot can be used as a therapeutic food to treat and prevent anemia (Putri & Tjiptaningrum, 2016).…”

Silica protects plants from abiotic stress. Planting media provides a place to grow and nutrition for plant growth. The research aims to study the effect of bamboo leaf silica dosage and growing media on the yield of red beets cultivated in the lowlands. The research was designed using a completely randomized factorial design (CRD) with two treatment factors. The first factor is the dose of bamboo leaf silica fertilizer (0 ppm, 0.15 ppm, 0.30 ppm, 0.45 ppm, 0.60 ppm). The second factor is the growing media (soil growing media; soil growing media + goat manure, and soil growing media + goat manure + husk charcoal). Research results: bamboo leaf silica dosage (0.3 ppm, 0.45 ppm and 0.60 ppm) affects the chlorophyll b and total chlorophyll. Growing media soil + goat manure + husk charcoal affects the length of red beet plants, number of leaves, diameter and length of red beetroots, wet weight and dry weight of red beetroots. Combination of growing media treatment (soil + goat manure + husk charcoal) with all doses of bamboo leaf silica increased the chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and total chlorophyll. The sugar content of red beetroots was not influenced by the dose of bamboo leaf silica or the growing medium. Keywords: Chlorophyll, Husk Charcoal, Manure, Soil.

“…However, the food habits of each population affect the vegetable residues that are produced, and they are difficult to overcome [ 1 ]. When it comes to the beetroot plant ( Beta vulgaris L.), the most commonly consumed part is the flesh, with the roots and leaves also being appreciated in some cultures, leaving the peel as the main residue [ 15 ].…”

In this study, a beetroot peel flour was made, and its in vitro antioxidant activity was determined in aqueous (BPFw) and ethanolic (BPFe) extracts. The influence of BPFw on breast cancer cell viability was also determined. A targeted betalain profile was obtained using high-resolution Q-Extractive Plus Orbitrap mass spectrometry (Obrtitrap-HRMS) alongside untargeted chemical profiling of BPFw using Ultra-High-Performance Liquid Chromatography with High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry (UHPLC-HRMS). BPFw and BPFe presented satisfactory antioxidant activities, with emphasis on the total phenolic compounds and ORAC results for BPFw (301.64 ± 0.20 mg GAE/100 g and 3032.78 ± 55.00 µmol T/100 g, respectively). The MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells presented reductions in viability when treated with BPFw, showing dose-dependent behavior, with MDA-MB-231 also showing time-dependent behavior. The chemical profiling of BPFw led to the identification of 9 betalains and 59 other compounds distributed amongst 28 chemical classes, with flavonoids and their derivates and coumarins being the most abundant. Three forms of betalain generated via thermal degradation were identified. However, regardless of thermal processing, the BPF still presented satisfactory antioxidant and anticancer activities, possibly due to synergism with other identified molecules with reported anticancer activities via different metabolic pathways.
