Description:
PINES Beet Juice Powder is simply a tasty and convenient way to get some of the nutritional benefits of whole beets. Package in a nitrogen-packed amber glass bottle to maintain freshness.
The beautiful red-purple color of beet root is evidence of the amazing plant pigments known as carotenoids. While it is believed that there are at least 500 of these natural compounds, only a handful have been analyzed, with betacarotene being the best known.
Research on other carotenoids such as lycopene and lutein (both of which are present in PINES Wheat Grass, as well) suggests they do a lot to support optimum health. The more we know, the more the common refrain "eat your vegetables" is proven correct.
PINES products are organically grown, and packaged using no artificial ingredients.
You should be aware that there are differences between green foods packaged in plastic versus our nitrogen-packed amber glass, including:
1. Glass is completely non-toxic.
2. The oxygen-free atmosphere inside our glass bottles stops oxidation. The only other way to stop oxidation is to freeze the product
3. Even after being opened, glass bottles keep product fresher than plastic. Plastic is a porous material that cannot hold a 100% nitrogen environment. Glass is not porous and gives off no chemical residue.
Suggested Use:
One rounded teaspoon added to half a cup of cold water or vegetable juice. Stir or shake briskly.
