Many people are familiar with the red beetroot, but did you know that this common produce market vegetable, when juiced, contains some pretty potent nutritional components you might not know about? Beet juice can be particularly helpful for not only lowering blood pressure and purifying the bloodstream, but also increasing athletic performance, improving cardiovascular health and reducing inflammation in the body.
Beet Juice Recipe:
Ingredients: half a med beet root 3 celery stalks quarter habanero pepper 1 green apple 2 carrots big handful of cilantro (with stems) squeeze of lime juice
Directions: Juice the above ingredients. Add your beet at the beginning to avoid beet juice dripping at the end, as it will tend to dye your counter top. Pour into your favorite glass.
We use a little habanero to spice this juice up a bit (as in our green juice blast recipe). Hot spices are good for opening up the system and delivering the nutrients. As an alternative you can use ginger instead.
