Beets, Canned and Drained

EverydayCannedDrained

Canned and drained beets are pre-cooked root vegetables preserved in liquid, offering year-round convenience with a softer texture than fresh varieties. While some heat-sensitive nutrients like vitamin C diminish during processing, they retain dietary nitrates for circulatory support along with notable fiber, folate, and manganese content. The draining process reduces sodium levels compared to undrained canned beets, but they remain higher in sodium than fresh preparations, making portion awareness important for sodium-restricted diets.
