Most beetroot juice recipes incorporate other fruits and vegetables that blend well in flavor and texture, so a number of recipes will use carrots, apples, celery, pineapples and cucumber.
While the combination may seem strange to begin with, you may want to experiment with a few before you settle on the ones that work best for you.
The nutritional value of beets is exceptionally high – they are packed with iron, and are often a simple dietary solution to combat iron deficiency anemia.
Apart from being blood cleansers recommended for those with diabetes, and good antioxidants, beets are good sources of folic acid, vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and sodium.
A single glass of beet juice can add a number of essential nutrients to your diet.
