This is a super healthy salad inspired by my recent trip to Armenia where the pomegranate is a symbol of life.

Beetroots are an excellent source of folic acid and a very good source of fiber, manganese and potassium. Due to its high sugar content, beetroot is delicious eaten raw. Eating it raw preserves vitamins and antioxidants. Pomegranates also have antioxidant, antiviral and anti-tumor properties. Enjoy!
