It sounds like your sentence got cut off. Many headlines start with “Doctors reveal that eating beets causes…”, and they usually refer to a few common effects of beetroot on the body. Here are the most well-known ones:
1. Red or Pink Urine (Beeturia)
Some people notice their urine or stool turning reddish after eating beets. This condition is called Beeturia.
- It happens because pigments in beets (betalains) pass through the body.
- It’s generally harmless and temporary.
2. Lower Blood Pressure
Beets contain nitrates, which the body converts to nitric oxide. This helps relax blood vessels and lower blood pressure, so doctors often link beets with heart health benefits.
3. Possible Kidney Stone Risk (in Some People)
Beets are high in oxalates, which may contribute to kidney stones in people who are prone to them, particularly Kidney Stones.
4. Better Exercise Performance
Because of improved blood flow from nitrates, beets can increase stamina and endurance, which is why some athletes drink beet juice.
5. Digestive Effects
Eating a lot of beets may sometimes cause:
- Mild bloating
- Pink/red stool
- Slight stomach upset in sensitive people
✅ Bottom line: Beets are generally very healthy, but they may temporarily change urine color and should be eaten in moderation if you are prone to kidney stones.
