This paragraph in particular caught my eye. Are There Any Side Effects to Drinking Beet Juice? The dark carotenes of beet juice may give your urine and bowel movements a red color. This color change is harmless. Since beets are high in oxalates, people who tend to make oxalate kidney stones may want to avoid beet juice. I knew about the color change – I found that out the hard way, lol. What I didn’t know what about beets being high in oxalates. I have had kidney stones once years ago. It was ridiculously painful. By the time I was called in to see the doctor, they told me I didn’t have any stones. I waited 7 hours in a lot of pain for them to tell me that. I can tell you where the stones went, but I digress. I’ve had them once and all I knew was that it could happen again.
