Hearty Paleo Juice!

I’ve been craving beets lately. A whole lot. There is something about their redness and their composition that attracts me so much to them. If my body wants beets, it must mean it needs beets….right?

Here are a few fun facts on beets:

Beets have sodium, magnesium, calcium, iron and phosperous (You can’t “beet” that)! They are a fibrous food, which contains vitamins A and C as well as niacin. Studies have shown that beets protect the body against cancer (especially colon cancer) and that if consumed regularly, it can help protect your body against heart disease. Also, beets help cleanse the blood, cleanse the colon and strengthen the liver.

It’s good stuff. I’m thinking beets will be included in my diet more regularly. I want all these benefits. Plus, they are really delicious!

I bought some beets at our Co-Op and brought them home. I wanted a nice cold beet, carrot & apple juice! Doesn’t that just sound lovely? Well, let me just tell you, it was.

  1. I absolutely love juicing so I was wondering why you boil the beets as opposed to using them raw?

    1. You can definitely juice them raw for this recipe! I had boiled beets in my refrigerator already, so I used what I had on hand 🙂

  2. This is similar to my favourite juice. I use a green apple, more carrots, not as much beet and add some fresh ginger. It is yummy.

  3. I made this today with raw beets and it was lovely. Thanks for the recipe, I’m new to juicing and it was nice to find a simple recipe that tastes great!

  4. I am so pleased you mentioned the cooked beetroot. In the UK I’m finding it hard to get raw beetroot in supermarkets. There’s plenty of cooked, vacusealed beetroot but none raw. I’m going to try this juice tonight 🙂 Thanks for caring ML.
