Beetroot is considered alkaline-producing, not acidic, in the body.
While beetroot might contain some acids, its overall effect after digestion is to help neutralize acids in the body. This is due to its composition of nutrients, vitamins, minerals, and high fiber content, which promote efficient digestion. Efficient digestion, in turn, helps in neutralizing acid and ensuring smooth food transit through the digestive system. This can be beneficial for reducing indigestion, heartburn, and acid reflux. Therefore, beetroot is often recommended as part of a diet to combat acidity.
