if you want something really good  to support liver detoxification  

definitely don’t forget the beet okay beets have  a lot of amazing properties but one is the ability  

to bind and hook up these toxins and poisons and  actually convert them into water soluble particles  

okay and they do this with a very unique chemical  called betalain so betalain uses glutathione to  

transform poisons into non-poisons so that is  part of something called phase two enzymes okay  

and so phase three is that complete elimination  of that poison so you have all these chain  

reactions that occur through the liver and they  get triggered through various chemicals one being  

present in beets and beets have some other really  unique properties one is the support of your eye  

okay it has lutein and zeaxanthin okay both of  those natural chemicals help protect the eye  

from damage to the retina damage from cataracts  damage from macular degeneration beets are also  

loaded with natural nitrates that help to  support your blood pressure and the arteries  

beets also have something called betaine which  is made from choline so both betaine and choline  

help reduce fat from accumulating on your  liver now beets are also loaded with folate  

now folate is does a lot of things but one of  the big things that it will do is it prevents  

dna damage so thereby lessening the chance  of mutations from occurring and decreasing  

the risk of cancer and so this is why certain  properties in beets are really good to help shrink  

tumors in the colon and the stomach  in the nervous system in your lungs  

in the breast tissue in the prostate tissue as  well as in the testicle beets are loaded with  

vitamin c a very powerful antioxidant it’s loaded  with manganese which also acts as an antioxidant  

and copper so not only do beets have very powerful  vitamins and minerals but they also have very  

special and unique phytonutrients that help you  detoxify the body as well as reduce inflammation  

now if you’re going to consume beets i  would highly recommend that you steam them  

for no longer than 15 minutes put them on your  salad and one common question is are beets okay  

on a ketogenic diet well beets tend to be higher  on the glycemic index but they’re also very low in  

the glycemic load which means they’re very high  in fiber and so they’re not going to spike your  

blood sugars unless you juice them that’s why i  recommend you consume them whole and so you can  

steam them you can cook them but don’t overcook  them or even consume them pickled all right thanks
