DESCRIPTION: Beeturia, the passage of pink urine after beetroot consumption, is a reminder that phytonutrients circulate throughout our bloodstream, explaining the connection between "garlic breath" and the use of garlic as an adjunct treatment for pneumonia. Have a question about this video? Leave it in the comment section at http://nutritionfacts.org/videos/pretty-in-pee-nk/ and I'll try to answer it! This is a follow-up to Friday's video-of-the-day Asparagus pee (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/asparagus-pee/), a tangent in my series about the athletic performance-enhancing effects of vegetables that started with Doping with beet juice (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/doping-with-beet-juice/). For more on the wonders of garlic, check out videos #1 Anticancer Vegetable (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/1-anticancer-vegetable/) and the "prequel," Veggies vs. Cancer (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/veggies-vs-cancer/). And that's just one of more than a thousand subjects I have videos (http://nutritionfacts.org/topics/) on here at NutritionFacts.org (http://nutritionfacts.org/) —an all-free, no-ads, and evidence-based (see links to all the papers in the Sources Cited section above) resource for all.
