Beet Juice for the liver

Beet juice is awesome for the liver it is a natural detoxifier. The liver is a huge filter for our bodies and removing the toxins from our bodies. In today’s world we are exposed to so many toxins that our livers are so overtaxed. It is important to feed body nutritious foods that will not only help support the liver but also help with the detoxification process.

Nutritional Benefits

Beets are filled with many beneficial vitamins and minerals such as calcium, iron and b vitamins. These are all vital nutrients in the detoxification process. This is why food choice is so important too the more toxic your choices the more toxins your body will try to detox. It is a vicious cycle. I have a great beet juice recipe for you below.
