Weight loss benefit:
Beets are an excellent source of nutrients and are powerful
cleanser of the bladder, kidney and liver. Because beets are high in oxalic
acid, it is best to avoid combing beets with calcium rich vegetables such as
broccoli. The strong flavor of beets, however, is best combined with celery,
lettuce, carrots, and apples.
Celery is high in fiber, low in cholesterol and low in
protein—an excellent weight loss vegetable, indeed!
