An estimated 10-15% of all U.S. adults experience a reddening of the urine after consumption of beets. While this  is not harmful in and of itself, it may be a possible indicator of issues with iron metabolism.

For this reason, if you experience this phenomenon and have any reason to suspect iron-related problems, a healthcare consult is recommended.

About the Red Green Smoothie Recipe with Hemp Protein

A red green smoothie, what does that look like??  Indeed – this smoothie is mostly red.  However, hidden within the beet and berry reds is a whole cup of dark leafy greens, and a serving of Nubeleaf Plant Based Hemp Protein.  The flavor is a nice pairing of warm, rich, earthy tones from the beet – and the sharper, sweet notes from the apple and raspberries.

Beets are a bright red root vegetable, with edible greens at their tops. The root can be prepared in a ton of different ways. It can be boiled, steamed, sauteed, pickled, or eaten raw, as in this smoothie. Beets are a great source of folate, which is vital to pregnant women, or women who are trying to conceive. Many people have a hard time eating beets, because although sweet, their flavor is quite earthy.
