If you’re asking what the headline “Doctors reveal eating beets causes… See more” is likely referring to: beets are generally considered a nutritious food, and there is no established evidence that eating normal amounts of beets causes dementia or a serious disease in healthy people.
Beets contain dietary nitrates, which the body can convert into nitric oxide. Research has investigated beetroot and beetroot juice for effects on blood pressure and cardiovascular function.
A few things can happen after eating beets:
-
Red or pink urine (beeturia) can occur and is usually harmless.
-
Red/pink stool can also occur and may be mistaken for blood.
-
Beetroot products can contain substantial amounts of sugar, particularly juices.
-
People who have certain kidney-related conditions or have been advised to limit dietary oxalates may need individualized advice.
If you paste the full headline or the article/text after “See more,” I can explain exactly what the claim means and whether there is good medical evidence behind it.
