Betalain is the critical phytonutrient in beets responsible for liver detoxification, and gives beets their deep red-purple color. Betalain works by harnessing glutathione to chemically transform fat-soluble toxins into water-soluble particles, constituting a Phase 2 enzyme reaction. Betalain directly activates and supports the Phase 2 biochemical conversion process in the liver.
