 Q & A

1. Can I drink this every day?

Yes, most healthy individuals can enjoy 1 small glass daily. If you have kidney issues, are prone to kidney stones, or have low blood pressure, consult a healthcare provider.

2. Why does beet juice change urine color?

Beets contain natural pigments (betalains) that may cause pink or red urine/stool. This is harmless and called beeturia.

3. Can I make it sweeter?

Yes! Add:

  • 1 green apple

  • 1 tablespoon honey

  • Or reduce celery slightly

4. Is it safe for diabetics?

It contains natural sugars. Portion control is important. Pairing with a fiber-rich meal may help balance blood sugar response.

5. Can I skip straining?

Absolutely. Leaving the pulp increases fiber and makes it more filling.
