GOODNESS
Beets: These fat purple (and many other hued) roots are delicious and extremely good for you. They have a combination of chemicals that work to stimulate the blood vessels, helping your heart and brain to stay in top form. Beets can turn your urine surprisingly red, but that's completely normal, even if disconcerting.
