Doctors Reveal What Eating Beets Really Does to Your Body

6. When to Consume With Caution

Beets are incredibly healthy, but there are a few exceptions:

• People with a tendency to develop kidney stones (due to oxalates)
• Individuals with naturally low blood pressure
• Those who get startled by beet-colored urine (yes, “beeturia” is a real, harmless thing!)

Aside from these situations, beets are safe for most people and easy to include in a balanced diet.
