Borscht is a traditional Eastern European soup made from bone broth and beetroot. Beetroot is a great source of many nutrients and antioxidants including iron and folic acid. Folate or vitamin B9 is an important nutrient required for the growth of tissues and cell development. This helps your skin maintain its youthful elasticity and helps reduce the signs of ageing.

This soup with its beetroot and homemade bone broth really packs some powerful flavours and super healthy ingredients.
