️️️️️️Beeturia, pink pee after beet consumption, is totally harmless—you’re just peeing out some of the pigment. But it can be used to remind us of an important fact. When we eat plant foods, many of these wonderful antioxidant pigments—lycopene, beta carotene—the phytonutrients are actually absorbed into our bloodstream, and bathe the organs, tissues, and cells of our bodies.

Beets have amazing properties. In addition to drinking beetroot juice, I preserve them in jars for the winter.
My mom Halinka’s recipe for winter beets: 3 kg of beets:

Just under half a cup of sugar – approx. 115 g
Just under half a cup of 10% spirit vinegar
1 tablespoon of rock salt – approx. 20 g

Peel and grate the cooked beets, then combine with the sugar, vinegar, and salt. Transfer the mixture into sterilized jars. ️️️️ #vegan #beet #beetroots #eatrainbow
