Beta vulgaris, sometimes known as baby red beets, are edible underground roots that produce tall leaves and belong to the Amaranthaceae family. Baby Red Beets are a broad term for red beets that are picked when they are still young.

Red Beets are a rich source of nutrients, including fiber for a healthy digestive system and folate, which is crucial for a child's development at this young age. Moreover, beets include phenols, carotenoids, and numerous other plant components that promote cellular health and function as antioxidants.
