Beetroot and coconut both contribute hugely to digestive and gut health. Beetroot is high in fibre and phosphorus which is a key digestive aid. Phosphorus stimulates the absorption of riboflavin and niacin from the B-vitamin family, which fortifies the intestines and digestive tract. Coconut boosts nutrient absorption and helps to seal the lining of the digestive tract.
