Im really into juicing but sometimes I overdo and freak out I drank 8 ounces of pure beet juice is it safe?
Posted by admin on Oct 16, 2009
I mixed it with 15 ounces of carrot juice and threw in an apple. I know this is very healthy but I read pure beet juice can cause hives increased heart rate and Vocal cord paralysis you can see how this can scare someone it also made me throw up. I drink juice all the time and are usally fine sometimes I am A health nut and overkill its been 2 hours since i drank it im ok but is this true about beet juice? I usually drink like 8 ounces of carrot and 8 ounces of apple juice and feel great but today the beets made me sick then I read about them and got real paranoid any experience with this is this just crap. Only other bad experience i had was i drank broccoli juice and also take cayenne pepper these are both blood thinners i got dizzy and felt weird for hours. My fear is concentrated juice can become a drug because of the natural photochemicals?
I will add that 20 ounces is just one large glass so i din not think it was an overkill.
I do not think it is safe. You said that you were a health nut, I prefer to think that you are just a NUT.
Be careful with taking anything in excess!
8 oz is one glass but too much carrot juice can be bad fro you. I had not heard those things about beet juice but I know that you did in fact take way too much. It will overkill the benefits of it when you take too much!!
You are also limiting your nutrients to beet juice, you need to leave room for other foods. Most foods are better eating whole anyway.
I don’t know about juices becoming drugs, but I think you should relax on this part, not take a lot like you did.
Just because you FEEL fine does not mean your body isn’t struggling with your intake.
Learn form todays experience and don’t over do anything if possible again.
You say you are a health nut, this is not healthy too be taking too much juice!!

The challenge for you is to be very careful about ingesting such powerful vegetable and fruit sugars in such large amounts. You are really stressing your out your system thinking that you are doing something healthy. You need to see a certified nutritionist and follow the regimen that healthcare practitioner sets for you. And I am serious about this. I had a friend who had a psychotic break after drinking several glasses full of beet, carrot, pineapple and apple juice for several days. Please be careful. The fiber and complex carbohydrates found in whole foods are essential for good health.
