EP
===






From " Wikipedia " :
Beetroots are rich in the nutrient betaine , which is important for
carduivascular health.Several preliminary studies on both rats and
humans have shown that betaine may protect against liver disease,
particularly the build up of fatty deposits in the liver caused by alcohol
abuse, protein deficiency, or diabetes, among other causes.

We used to cook beetroot soup however beetroot can also be used in salad .
So my salad have

Potatos -- 2 pcs
Apple -- 1 large one
Beetroot -- half clove
Lettuces -- for decorations .
Boiled eggs -- optional
Sour cream -- 3/4 cups
Mayonnaise -- 2 tbsp
salt / pepper -- a bit
Olive oil / vinegar -- a bit
Lemon juice -- a bit

Everything cut into small cubes and mix well with the seasoning .
Best for summer !
Doctors said ingestion of beetroot can colour urine red ,
The pinkness of pee depends on the acidity of your stomach ...
So far i didn't see my " pink pee " yet ...



i guess i have a strong stomach than ....

Hmm ... maybe no such thing in your country since this veggie is very common in North America and Britain.
