Beet Juice|Whole Foods:Beets are a potent anti-cancer treatment and are also great for detoxing the liver, kidneys, gallbladder, blood and lymph. They are also high in folate, which is good for your bones, and they are helpful in treating constipation.
After juicing a beet, let it sit in the fridge for 2-3 hours, then throw it into your carrot or green juice. Never drink beet juice alone.
I LOVE the deep crimson red color of beets and beet juice!
Whole foods are those that are unprocessed and unrefined, or processed and refined as little as possible before being consumed. They typically do not contain added ingredients, such as sugar, salt, or fat .
The term is often confused with “organic food” (i.e., organically-grown food) but whole foods are not necessarily organic, nor are organic foods necessarily whole, although they do share a number of traits, such as an avoidance of chemically-assisted agricultural techniques. Because of the lack of basic processing, many whole foods have a very short shelf life and are not easily sold outside of farmers’ markets.
