The doctor explained who should not eat beets

Beets are not recommended for people with urolithiasis and low blood pressure. These restrictions are related to the specific composition of the root vegetable and its effect on the body.

As reported by BAKU.WS with reference to RIA Novosti, this was stated by gastroenterologist of the Scandinavian Health Center Olga Chistik. According to her, beets contain oxalates that can stimulate the formation of kidney stones, and also help lower blood pressure, which is dangerous for people with hypotension.

The doctor also noted that beet consumption should be limited for people with gastrointestinal diseases, diabetes, and allergic reactions.
