Benefits of Beet Root Juice - a splendid liver and kidney cleanser, full of nutrients and iron

Beet Root is a good source of vitamins & minerals, especially an easy to assimilate iron. It is a great health supplement suitable for anemia, toning and rebuilding the liver, as well as beneficial for slimming and fat digestion as well as detoxing.

Beet Root

A popular table vegetable and nutritional supplement, especially in Northern Europe, beets are a good source of iron and other nutrients. The Greeks held this root in great esteem, offering it on a silver platter to the god, Apollo. In the middle ages, a meal was not considered complete without beetroot soup.

Walter Schoenenberger, a German research chemist, is a respected leader in the field of fresh plant juice therapy. He states, " I base my life's work upon the development of a new and natural form of healing...Fresh Plant Juice Therapy".

Beet Root is one of the greatest and longest valued of all plants that heal traditionally.

Does Beet Root contain vitamins & minerals?

Beet Root is a good source of minerals, particularly an easy to assimilate iron. It contains vitamins A, B and C, sodium, potassium, calcium and chlorine.

In North America, beet powder is best known for its moderate to good content of assimilable minerals and vitamins. There is 0.8 mg of iron, 335 mg of potassium and 25 mg of magnesium per 100 mg of beetroot.

Interestingly, the colouring matter in the beetroot is anthocyanin. This substance carries the potential to regenerate the membranes of cells, mitochondria and red blood cells, thus improving cell respiration.

Beet Root and Slimming?

Beetroot is remarkably beneficial for slimmers. Leslie Kenton, a leading nutritionist, writes in her book "Ultra Life" that beetroot contains the alkaloid betaine, which helps stimulate normal liver function, aiding detoxification and increasing its efficiency in processing fats.

Unless your liver is working properly, fat cannot be effectively broken down and transported through the body for use and elimination. A poorly functioning liver can result in fatigue, nausea, illness and overweight.

What else can Beet Root help with?

Red Beet Root acts as a splendid organic cleanser, not only of the liver, but also of the kidneys and gall bladder.  So Beet Root is helpful as a living cleansing diet or as a liver cleansing foods.  Taking this helps stimulate the activity of the lymphatic system for coughs, colds and bronchial disorders.  One study on Beet Root found it has a blood sugar stabilising effect.
