Many people ask whether beets are healthier cooked or raw.
For smoothies, I choose raw beets because they retain more vitamin C and antioxidant pigments called betalains, while also providing natural dietary nitrates that help your body produce nitric oxide, supporting healthy blood flow and circulation.
The earthy sweetness pairs surprisingly well with fresh lemon and pear.
BeetNaturally rich in:
These nutrients support healthy circulation, antioxidant defenses, and overall wellness.
LemonAdds:
Vitamin C also complements the vegetables by contributing to your overall antioxidant intake.
MoringaOne of nature’s most nutrient-dense greens, providing vitamins, minerals, and plant compounds that complement the rest of the smoothie.
GingerAdds a fresh, spicy flavor and contains natural phytochemicals that have been studied for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
TomatoProvides lycopene, vitamin C, and additional antioxidants.
CeleryContributes hydration, potassium, and naturally occurring nitrates.
PearAdds natural sweetness, fiber, and makes the smoothie creamy without refined sugar.
Blend until smooth.

A Week of Power Smoothies Starts with Steamed Beets
I don’t believe health comes from one magical ingredient.
It comes from nourishing your body with a variety of colorful whole foods, day after day.
This smoothie gives me a delicious way to enjoy vegetables, fruit, and herbs in one glass—and it’s become one of my favorite morning rituals.
Pair this smoothie with a warm bowl of homemade bone broth or slow-cooked oatmeal from your VitaClay for a breakfast that’s both comforting and nutrient-rich.
Note: If you have a history of kidney stones (especially calcium oxalate stones), ask your healthcare provider whether large amounts of raw beets are appropriate for you, since beets are relatively high in oxalates.
