Beet Root Powder - Organic
Organic Beet Root Powder provides a wide range of nutrients, but its most significant phytochemical
is betaine. This plant chemical helps the liver and kidneys recycle the amino acid methionine to maintain the
body's stores of s-adenosyl-methionine, more commonly known as SAM-e. Betaine also helps the liver process
fat. This prevents the accumulation of fatty tissues in the liver (steatosis), especially in heavy drinkers,
and it also helps prevent excessive triglycerides and LDL cholesterol in the blood. Other antioxidants in beet
root prevent the oxidation of LDL into forms that can become plaques. According to the American Heart
Association, beet juice can help lower blood pressure.
Organic Beet Root Powder is a wonderful cleansing and nourishing tonic that builds the blood, particularly
improving the blood quality for menstruating women. It also normalizes the blood's pH balance (reducing acidity)
and purifies the blood by flushing away fatty deposits and improving circulation. Further supporting its role as a
blood purifier, Beet Root has been used to detoxify the liver and spleen and help to treat many liver ailments
including jaundice, cirrhosis and other liver diseases. Some herbalists use it to treat liver problems induced by
alcoholism.
