This beautiful root is full of nutrition and antioxidants and has been used for years as part of cancer prevention and treatment.. It’s a great source of folate, potassium, dietary fiber and phosphorous. Its flavour can be a little “earthy, musky” but cooked beets have a real sweetness to the flesh. Read more Blend this with a couple of ice cubes, good quality honey and freshly squeezed orange juice (at this stage you may want to add some yellow or red bell pepper juice as an variation) with all its goodness and I think that this is one great tasting healthy breakfast juice.
