✨ Why it's good for you

  • Traditionally used to help regulate menstrual cycles
  • Good source of folate and iron
  • Versatile — eat raw, cooked, juiced, or powdered
  • Naturally sweet and nutrient-dense

🥄 How to use it

Eat fresh raw or cooked beets a few times a week, drink beet juice, or stir beet powder into water or smoothies.

How much: A serving of beets or a glass of beet juice most days of the week.

Why it works: Beets are rich in folate and iron, nutrients traditionally associated with supporting healthy menstrual cycles.

🧺 Other forms of Beets

These used to be pages of their own. They are the same remedy in a different form — the differences worth knowing are below.

Beet JuiceFood

A juice rich in iron and folate; its natural nitrates are studied for supporting already-healthy or high blood pressure, not for raising low blood pressure.

How this form is used: 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.

Cautions for this form
  • 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.
