Beet Root TinctureBeta vulgaris rubra
Learning with LaRee
Raw Beet Root is both cleansing and nourishing for the liver—more cleansing than nourishing. Care should be taken to use only a very small portion at a time as its cleansing properties are really strong and dramatic! Beet Root is the new super-food in athletic and health circles at the moment. Beet Root is a rich source of folate, manganese, thiamine, riboflavin, vitamin B-6, pantothenic acid, choline, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, copper, and selenium. Beets are high in a naturally occurring nitrate (not the nasty man-made kind) that is believed to be the reason for many of the health benefits of Beets. This nitrate is the subject of ongoing studies. A 2008 study (takes time for information to reach the public and doctors) suggests that blood pressure was significantly lowered when beets—cooked, not raw—were consumed regularly.
