My tribute to the truly incredible Rolling Stones—I was lucky enough to see them at a small gig at the Brixton Academy and mind-blowing is the only word I can use. In case you don’t know, "Ruby Tuesday" was released in January 1967.
Beetroot is currently one of the most talked-about vegetables in terms of its nutritional benefits and there have been several studies conducted globally about the effects of drinking beetroot juice.
The conclusion of all these studies is that the high level of nitrates found in beetroot keep the blood vessels dilated, meaning that high blood pressure is reduced and stamina in both the elderly and also athletes is improved due to the increased oxygen uptake capability.
This juice is also loaded with vitamins B and C and beta-carotene, as well as calcium, magnesium, iron, sodium, potassium and magnesium.
Now, on with the juice! Rich, nutritious beetroot and carrot juice combined with sweet creamy pineapple juice, a mellow fresh hit of basil and a little cheeky kick of ginger. This is one of the nicest juices on my detox program—hope you agree.
