TIP for Turmeric lovers: If adding turmeric to drinks specifically, remember to add a little bit of black pepper to enhance the anti-inflammatory properties of turmeric. Black pepper also has antiinflammatory properties as well. I know it seems like something weird to add to a drink but you don't need much and you will truly reap the benefits.

To further expound: Black pepper positively inhibits the liver enzymes responsible for too quickly filtering out curcuminoids, thus enhancing the bioavailability. Including a little coconut oil or mct oil would also aid absorption. I plan on using a product called host defense brain & body, that includes black pepper extract, mushrooms, tumeric, cinnamon and ginger. Gonna be legit yummy town.

You will retain more nutrients, and the lovely color by leaving on the tail and stem bits until after you cook the beets. Then peel and remove the unwanted parts. Old timey tip for you.

I have viewed several you tube clips that say that beets are the most nutritious veggie... I love the texture of the leaves, better than most lettuce, spinach or kale. And it keeps longer in the frig. I also use lime, olive oil, cracked peppercorn and half salt... so very healthy... And as far as the roots, I've tried many different approaches... I boil/fry them in olive oil and garlic in a frying pan until soft, then I bake them like roasted potatoes with Italian spice, olive oil and malt vinegar... totally yummy. I love your recipes and am anxious to try them... Thanks again for such an excellent presentation!!

Years ago my Mother introduced me to Borscht a Russian Soup made with Fresh Beets with whute boiled potatoes. My Mother's ancestry was a Polish Mother and a Russian Father. Once the Soup was finished simmering add a dallop of Sour Cream. We ate this quite frequently during the Winter months. I've subscribed to your channel as of Saturday 8/15/20

Actually borsch is a Ukrainian dish, and back in time it was cooked using juice from fermented beetroot - really healthy and tasty! There are lots of recipies of pickled beetroot on youtube... Nevertheless today we cook borsch with boiled beetroot, it has to be chopped and added in the end, along with tomato paste and garlic. Borsch is a sweet dish with slightly sour taste (someone likes to add sour cream to his plate to add creamy taste) P.S. I'm from Ukraine)
