My blog on Naturalmedicine: # 2 Beet and its healing properties.
Beet is not just a food product, for traditional healers it was and remains the most effective healing vegetable, thanks to its composition:
Contains up to 16% sugars, and this is glucose, sucrose, fructose.
Amino acids, whose amount exceeds the amount found in any other vegetable.
Pectin, known for its surprising ability to suppress the action of rotten bacteria in the intestine and prevent the risk of developing oncology (in addition, it is even higher in beets than in carrots and apples).
Fiber, which improves digestion, minimizes the risk of constipation.
Magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, which beneficially affect the cardiovascular system along the way.
Copper and iron, necessary to normalize the hematopoiesis process and, as a result, prevent the risk of anemia.
Zinc and manganese, necessary for the normal functioning of the sex glands, the pancreas.
Betanin and betaine: substances that ensure that beets are brightly colored and, in combination, strengthen the capillaries, normalize blood pressure, reduce cholesterol, improve fat metabolism and liver function.
Betaine and betanin also contribute to the formation of choline, which prevents fatty degeneration of the liver and has an antisclerotic effect.
Iodine, necessary for the elderly to prevent atherosclerosis;
Bioflavonoids that can relax the vessels and walls of the bile ducts, improving blood flow and bile.Chlorine, which is found in beets in a safe amount, but enough to clean not only the liver, but also the gallbladder and kidneys.
But most importantly, beets reduce inflammation and inhibit the development of pathogenic bacteria. In addition, it improves the composition of the blood, by cleaning it, it reduces the risk of fatty hepatosis, due to the normalization of fat metabolism in cells.
And it positively affects the bile formation process. The fact is that it is bile that eliminates toxins from the body. If the liver is healthy, about 1 liter of bile is secreted per day, and the person feels very well.
The unhealthy diet, stress, bad ecology and other factors negatively affect the functioning of the liver, increasing its slag level every day. The first signs of problems with this organ are reduced to allergies, constipation, pain in the right hypochondrium, drowsiness after eating, but they are successfully resolved by cleaning the liver with beets.
The beet liver detoxification procedure must be preceded by a complete medical examination, one of the most important stages is the ultrasound diagnosis of the abdominal organs. It allows you to identify stones in the kidneys, liver and gallbladder.
It is strictly forbidden to use any of the recipes to clean the liver in case of stones or stony formations. As a result of liver cleansing, the bile ducts, the ureter can move and block, and not only that will invariably lead a person to the operating table.
The liver is cleaned only after a bowel detoxification procedure. Special attention is given to the choice of beets for cleaning. It is better to take a vegetable grown in your garden without the use of fertilizers and chemicals.
Liver cleansing with beet decoction.
To use the technique, you must choose a medium beet. Wash thoroughly, put in a pan and fill with 3 liters of water, after which it is sent to simmer. There should be so much time that about 2 liters of water evaporate. After this, the root culture is removed and rubbed on a fine grater. The resulting mixture is returned to the remaining water after cooking, stirred and cooked on the same fire for approximately 20 minutes, but not boiled. Then it remains to strain the broth and start using.
Beet broth is received strictly by the hour. Ideally, 200 ml of healing liquid is drunk every 4 hours, but suppose the option is when the first intake is early in the morning, the second, before breakfast, and then 2 more times before lunch and before dinner. It is worth noting that you can reduce the interval between receptions to 3.5 hours, meanwhile, only after several such cleanings. Just because the shorter intervals make the detoxification process stronger and harder. After each portion you drink, you should lie down by applying a warm thermal pad to the liver area.
On the day of detoxification, you can eat other foods. The main thing is that they are well cooked cereals without salt or oil. It is also not recommended to salt or season the broth with something.
People who have already cleaned the liver with beet decoction insist that all manipulations are best performed on a day off, even from homework. Just because beet has an excellent diuretic effect and prevents a person from moving away from the bathroom. Subsequently, all toxins are excreted along with the urine. On the day of cleaning, you can drink clean water without gas.
During the detoxification of the body with the help of beet broth, make sure everything goes according to the possible plan, just by increasing urination. It is no longer recommended to repeat the manipulations the next day, since the technique is designed for only 1 day. Yes, they are not necessary, because generally in the morning after that, a person already feels lightness, a surge of energy and strength.
Cleaning with beet juice.
The process of preparing a drink to clean is simple. The washed beets are immersed in a juicer and squeezed juice, but there is another way, the old one, when ground on a grater, then squeezes the juice of the resulting composition through gauze.
Freshly prepared juice is not drunk, allowing it to stand for 2 hours. Before taking it, add the juice of 1 lemon, freshly squeezed carrot juice. Juice therapy is allowed for adults only.
The reception of a healing drink begins with the use of 1 teaspoon. Gradually, the dose is increased to 1/3 cup. Of course, peeling the liver with juice is easier, but longer. The cleaning course lasts 14 days. At this time, you may notice a change in the color of the urine when it acquires a reddish tint, which is normal, as is the yellowish color of the skin, which is observed when carrot juice is added.
Regardless of the choice of the detoxification recipe, it is recommended that beets be consumed regularly simply because:
Strengthens blood vessels. At the same time, the veins narrow, their stiffness decreases, blood pressure normalizes and people suffering from hypertension feel better.
The body is enriched with useful substances and improves liver function, as a result of which a person feels the strengthening of immunity, resistance to diseases.
A healthy liver improves with free radicals, which slow down the appearance of wrinkles and other signs of aging.
Improved bile production stimulates digestion, as a result of which the problems with the gastrointestinal tract disappear: increased gas formation, constipation, stagnant slag.
Improved metabolism prevents overweight.
