Still here, still Sober, and Beetroot

[Ronker]

Hey Hey thought that title might get a few people interested...lol

Well now at day 12 n feeling fine, the mini hangovers have stopped, sleep good, not got any cravings which is wierd but also why i dont wanna stuff this cos i think this is my one and only chance to do it properly.

Now beetroot, well beetroot juice actually, some research shows it is a very good tonic for 'DIRTY' or 'FATTY' liver, and supposedly is one of the best things you can take to help the liver recover from abuse.

I found it hard to get, note beetroot juice is not the remaining juice in a can of beetroot, that is mainly vinegar, I eventually found it here in woolworths (OZ) the only one i could find was with apple, but its 75% beetroot, 25% apple juice so its still gotta be pretty good.

I find it quite pleasant, and the recommended is a 1/4 cup a day in mornings.

Hopefully someone might find it useful.

hoo roo

Thanks mate, re the beetroot, you'd be surprised its quite nice, I used to live and work in Uk, and travelled to Ireland north and south on work, supermarkets there prob have.

used to get ferry to Belfast, then drive down to limerick, those were days, stayed in big flash hotel, all on company including a bottle of wine with dinner!!!!!

yes apparently you can do it in a blender then filter it, but look in supermarkets, its quite readily available.

Apparently Holland and Barrett stock it. I googled it. And for those of you who think you can't stomach it, apparently it increases your stamina!
So that may change a few minds

Betty, I make beetrooot and apple juice in my juicer all the time!!! (but tend to do it in my grubby old PJs and definitely dont do it wearing a white t-shirt!!!!)

(Beetroot and celery and beetroot and carrot is also good. Plus add ginger root)

Ronker - fresh betroot should be readily available in Oz from around now until early in the new year. And I dont know about where you are but here it is really cheap. Farmer's markets???
