Betaine is well understood for detoxification and has also been used for athletic performance even if how it works for that is not well understood.
Betaine or Trimethylglycine is part of the process of methylation, a major detoxification process.
Betaine is also observed to cause increase in the phase 2 glutathione process in the liver.
Beets also have a unique type of antioxidants not found in many plants: betalains.
Red beets have a betalain called betacyanins that give them their red color.
Yellow beets have betaxanthins.
These betalains are mutually exclusive and do not occur in the same beets.
These antioxidants also oxidize rapidly so the juice should ideally be consumed immediately.
These antioxidants have been found to be more powerful than those found in other foods like oranges.
Beets are one of the best things for bile flow.
Bile flow is a key link in overall health the detox process.
Bile flow is what escorts toxins out the liver and stimulates peristalsis to move toxins out the bowels.
Gallbladder problems involve bile flow issues.
Beet juice and cooked beets are both found to help bile flow. Increased performance can be measured as the ratio of primary to secondary bile acids:
More primary bile acids means great bile production, less reabsorption of toxic bile is more effective detoxification—that is my understanding.
Secondary bile acids are the ones reabsorbed from the intestines back into the liver, a normal process, but when bile contains toxins you want it to go out.
Recycling bile makes sense if it does not contain toxins but is used again in its role as emulsifying fats for digestion.
This is not always well explained because many researchers are still saying that less secondary bile flow absorption is good because it excretes more cholesterol, which they think is bad, and that is wrong. Cholesterol is a key component of bile flow itself and is found in some of the most nutritious foods like raw dairy and eggs. Toxins are the problem and these foods are some of the best detoxifiers beyond supporting the bile flow.
Even cooked beets help with bile flow and constipation, but I think many detoxification benefits are lost because heat destroys many nutrients like the sensitive antioxidants of betalains.
Beets are rich in nitrates to produce nitric oxide that has many functions, like improving circulation through vasodilation to deliver more nutrients. Many people understand this more narrowly as reducing blood pressure, without understanding the functions of circulation to distribute nutrients, like to the brain so you can read to understand.
Beets offer a broad spectrum of nutrients that support the whole body as a system for everything:
Beets do have oxalates for people who have not solved that yet.
Vegetable juices are one of the easiest ways to absorb minerals and vitamins with effortless digestion. Along with hydration better than water.
Detoxification also requires that all the foods work together for the many nutrients that are needed, from fat and protein as well.
Health is an all-out war between nutrients and toxins.
At the antioxidant level it's electronic warfare between electron donors and electron stealers.
Both chemistry and physics.
Body burden of toxins in your body.
And environmental exposures to artificial lights, non native electronic radiation and air pollution.

Beets offer a broad spectrum of nutrients that support the whole body as a system for everything:
- Chemistry for cell reproduction, detoxification and strengthening.
- Circulation to get nutrients to cells and escort toxins out.
- Detoxification through the liver to purify the blood that removes toxins from cells.
