🌱 What it is
Beet juice is the fresh-pressed juice of the beet root, rich in natural nitrates and iron-supportive nutrients.
✨ Why it's good for you
- Traditionally used to support iron levels
- Easy to add to daily juicing routine
- Rich in folate and antioxidants
🥄 How to use it
Drink a 6-oz glass of fresh beet juice about three times a week as part of a healthy diet; for anemia support, add 1/4 cup beet juice to carrot juice daily.
How much: About 6 oz, up to 3 times weekly; conservative amounts if new to it.
Why it works: Beets contain natural nitrates that may support healthy circulation, and their iron and folate content has traditionally been used to support healthy blood levels.
⚠️ Cautions
- May turn urine or stool pink/red (harmless, but can be alarming).
- Those with kidney stones (oxalate type) should use in moderation.
- Check with a doctor if on blood pressure medication, as effects may add up.
