Does your skin need some extra love? Eat (or drink) some beets! The quirky red beet with its crimson hue offers incredible health benefits, including beautiful healthy skin. Beet juice also reduces inflammation and promotes healthy hearts.
Beets contain betalain, a powerful phyto-nutrient that helps eliminate free radicals (which cause significant damage to living cells and tissue) in our bodies and helps prevent heart disease. Betalain also heals and protects cells and tissues (this impacts the skin) from damaging free radicals.
Need more reasons to eat beets? The beautiful beet is an epic detoxifier eliminating toxins from the liver. A healthy non-sluggish liver means clearer more vibrant skin.
This Red Beet Detox Juice is filled with nutritious ingredients for improving the health of your skin and body. Grab your juicer and drink up!
Do you prefer blending over juicing? Go for it! However, you may wish to peel the beets and ginger root if adding ingredients to a blender.
