Beets are nutrient rich in vitamins, minerals and plant compounds that support heart, brain, muscle recovery, microcirculation, liver and bowel detoxification (yes, I mean good bowel movements) and healthy cholesterol balance while being low calorie. This recipe includes other foods that traditionally support digestion, including acid and probiotics through raw apple cider vinegar.
