This detox juice contains beetroot, carrot, ginger, lemon and apple. The beetroot and carrot give it an earthy sweetness, while lemon adds acidity and ginger brings a warming, spicy note.
Wash and chop the beetroot, carrot and apple, then juice them with ginger and lemon. Adjust the ginger and lemon to taste, and drink the juice fresh for its best flavour.
No, detox juice has not been shown to cleanse the body of toxins. It provides compounds from fruit and vegetables, while your liver and kidneys handle the body's normal processing and removal of waste.
Detox juice does not cause weight loss on its own. Swapping it for a sugary drink may reduce what you consume, but drinking it in addition to your usual meals adds to your intake rather than replacing anything.
Yes, beetroot pigments can make urine—and sometimes stool—look pink or red in some people. This is usually harmless and temporary; if the colour persists when you have not eaten beetroot, seek medical advice.
Homemade detox juice tastes best freshly made. If you need to store it, refrigerate it promptly in a clean, sealed container and drink it as soon as possible, since its freshness and flavour decline over time.
Juicing makes a smoother drink, while blending keeps more of the fruit and vegetable pulp in the glass. This beetroot, carrot, ginger, lemon and apple recipe is minimally processed when freshly prepared at home.
No, this juice is not a filling replacement for breakfast. It lacks the variety of foods that make a more sustaining meal, so have it alongside breakfast rather than relying on it as your only food.
There is no special time when detox juice works better. Have it when you enjoy it, such as with breakfast or as a drink between meals; it does not need to be taken on an empty stomach.
Pregnant people can generally have properly washed fruit and vegetable juice, but freshly made juice may carry food-safety risks if produce or equipment is not clean. Ask your healthcare professional for advice if you have a pregnancy-related concern.

Made by juicing beetroot, carrot, ginger, lemon and apple, Detox juice is a vividly coloured fruit-and-vegetable drink found in home kitchens and juice bars. Beetroot and carrot bring earthy sweetness, apple rounds it out, while lemon adds brightness and ginger a gentle heat. It can be strained for a smoother drink or left with some pulp for a fuller texture.
Enjoy it chilled with breakfast or as a light refreshment between meals; it is not especially filling on its own, so pair it with something more substantial if you want a satisfying breakfast. The mix provides vitamin C, carotenoids and other antioxidant compounds, and has 30 calories per 100 g. For a less sweet taste, use less apple and a little more lemon.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
