Should I peel beets for juicing them or just wash them?
I just wondering does one peel the beet before juicing or just wash them?
Jesse's Answer:
Personally, I just wash the beets before juicing.
As long as the beets are clean after you wash them so you don't drink dirt, then that's fine. But if you want, you can peel the beets too.
Of course, some will say that you should peel all non–organic vegetables. However, in the case of beets, since the peel is so thin, should the beets be non–organic, then any potential chemical pesticides will go much deeper than the peel itself. As a result, in the case of beets, I just personally wash them. If the beets are organic then of course it's not a problem at all.
