beetroot



You know when you get a craving for something and you think to yourself that's a bit weird especially if your a bloke and not pregnant (at least I think I'm not) Well the other day I am shopping with the wife and see some beetroot and think I NEED beetroot, why would anyone NEED beetroot?

As I am an impulsive buyer I duly bought the beetroot and when I got home I ate it and felt satisfied! Strange as it sounds that's what happened.

I am one of those people who believes everything has a purpose and I also believe in creation and a creative God. That said I think when our bodies are in need of something they do their best to tell us so I looked up the history of beetroot, fascinating stuff!

Those who know me well know I have an auto immune deficiency (not acquired that's different) I have Chron's disease, google it if you don't know what it is or just follow the Wiki link.

In short beetroot was used to treat "The Immune System" and to aid "The Digestive System" I truly thought this is amazing, that's exactly what I need and my body even said so!

One other cool fact made me laugh "Its likely after eating beetroot I will wee pink!"

Can you believe my eyes when I went for a wee IT WAS PINK!!

I also love beetroot and I usually boil them and eat them with chevré chees. It´s delicious.
