Beet Juice

[margoss]

just curious. What do ya'll mix in yours? I made my beet juice today w/3 beets, 3 small cukes, 1 apple. About 30 minutes later, I was very nausea for an hr then it passed. I can eat an abundance of these products with no prob. wondering if it was the combining. thanks.

It may have been the sugar hit. Beets have lots of sugar.

beets are SUPER detoxing... so your nausea was detox. ;)

try doing less beets and more greens.

beet, apple, spinach, celery, garlic, parsley is nice...

Beets are a very powerful liver cleanser so too much at once can create a strong cleaning reaction which can make you feel sick. Go east too start one is fine.:)

I mix in any combo of cucumber, celery, carrot, apple, ginger, parsley, kale, chard, and lemon. Also the beet tops.

One beet per pint of juice is more than enough. If it is a very large beet, half might be a better place to start.
