Beetroot with kefir is a well-known recipe for a long time, but nowadays it is practically forgotten. But the mixture of these two products helps to lose weight and gently cleanse the body of toxins. There are several recipes for such a healthy "cocktail", but they are united by the main principle that will help us achieve the desired figure.
What are the benefits of beets with kefir
Beetroot is an easy product for the stomach, but at the same time, a very useful product for the whole body. Beets contain primarily coarse fiber, which helps the digestive system to work efficiently and quickly. Indeed, it is precisely because of the slowdown in metabolism that all incoming products do not have time to be absorbed and are deposited in the hated fat. Also, fiber helps to remove unnecessary water from the body, and also gently cleanses the intestines from slagging. This is one of the main useful properties of this product, but beets also contain vitamins of groups A and B, as well as mineral elements. All this makes beets just a storehouse of useful elements! Beetroot is easily digested, as it is a fast carbohydrate that saturates the human body and is converted into energy almost instantly.
If beets are so healthy, then why add kefir to it? If beets only cleanse the human body, then kefir restores it. This product consists of milk and a special starter culture, which, during the fermentation process, give the drink a unique complex of more than twenty bacteria! Why do we need these bacteria? They help to digest food, speed up metabolism and even neutralize poisons that act on your liver. And if you are prone to flatulence or you experience discomfort when eating and assimilating food, then kefir will help to cope with dysbiosis and saturate your body with useful microelements.
The combination of beets with kefir will help you not only lose weight by removing excess water and toxins, but also keep the result due to the normalization and acceleration of metabolism.
How and how much to eat beets with kefir to lose weight
If everything is clear with the benefits of products, then the question of how much to put products in order to make the perfect cocktail of beets and kefir is quite interesting. The main trick of mixing these products is adding mineral water without gas to them.
I suggest you consider step by step the preparation of such a beet-kefir cocktail:
1. Raw beets should be finely grated and squeezed out. The juice must be left for 20-30 minutes. To make a cocktail, you need 100 ml of beetroot juice.
2. Add 100 ml of still mineral water to a glass of 1% kefir, and slowly pour in the beet juice, stirring constantly. Leave the cocktail for 5 minutes, chill if desired. The mineral water in the cocktail is essential to avoid dehydration, which often occurs when cleansing the body.
3. Drink beet-kefir cocktail between meals 2-3 times a day.
Important! You cannot consume more than one kilogram of beets and one and a half liters of kefir per day. In the presence of diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, be sure to consult a doctor before using the beet-kefir cocktail.
The first results from taking such a cocktail will be visible after 3 days, but for a successful result it is advised to use the cocktail for 10-14 days. The main thing is not to forget to use proper nutrition and not to abuse the "harmfulness". After this cleansing, you can consume this product 1-2 times a week, 1 glass per day to maintain the digestive system in good condition. Moreover, such a cocktail is delicious and will please those with a sweet tooth.
Additional ingredients for beet-kefir cocktail
You can diversify the classic cocktail recipe with healthy additives.
For example, adding finely chopped dill, parsley and cilantro will be very beneficial. You need very little greens - a pinch per glass. It must be added to the finished cocktail before use.
Another option is to add cucumber juice. Grate the cucumber and squeeze out the juice (you can use cheesecloth if necessary). Next, mix the cucumber with beet juice and add them together to the drink made from kefir and mineral water. Beetroot with cucumber is a pretty good combination to taste.
You can substitute a cucumber for an apple. But it is better not to grate the apple, but grind it in a blender along with the skin. Add the resulting gruel to a mixed drink of kefir, mineral water and beetroot juice and stir well. The cocktail is like a smoothie in consistency.
It is not recommended to make multicomponent cocktails, since quite a few products interfere with each other's assimilation. Therefore, if you added greens to the cocktail, then adding another cucumber or apple is not recommended.

This drink is collecting positive reviews and for good reason. Beet-kefir cocktail is simple and very easy to prepare. The cost of the products that make up the cocktail is inexpensive, which means that such a cocktail can be consumed regularly without prejudice to your wallet. If we add to all this the enormous benefits of the drink for the body, then it will rightfully take the leading place among diets for weight loss.
This beet-kefir cocktail is absolutely natural and does not contain dyes, preservatives or other harmful additives. It is noted that despite a good result, weight loss occurs very smoothly and the skin remains elastic. In the first month, you can easily lose from 2 to 5 kilograms of excess weight, and in subsequent months - 1-2 kilograms per month.
