Drinking beetroot juice can lead to red, purple, or pink urine or stools. Although this may seem alarming, it should not be a cause for medical concern. Doctors refer to this as “beeturia.”
People prone to oxalate-type kidney stones should be careful not to consume too much of the beet tops.
Also, those with gastrointestinal issues or irritable bowel syndrome may experience stomach upset after consuming beetroot juice.
Beets are very nutritious. However, people should consider their overall eating pattern when looking at the effects of their diet on health. For good health, it is better to eat a diet that includes a wide range of food and nutrients. *
