I've worked in a pharmacy for 7 years and NEVER heard anyone that couldn't take this. The last day or so, when I get dizzy/brain zaps, I have been taking meclizine (an antihistamine, like benadryl) during the day because it doesn't make me sleepy. It helps with the dizzinesss, brain zaps, and eye twitch type symptoms. It helps alot, but doesn't completely make it go away. At least I can handle it.
Place beets in a large stockpot with water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook until tender, about 15 minutes depending on the size of the beets. If beets are large, cut them into quarters. Drain, reserving 2 cups of the beet water, cool and peel. Sterilize jars and lids by immersing in boiling water for at least 10 minutes. Fill each jar with beets and add several whole cloves to each jar. In a large saucepan, combine the sugar, beet water, vinegar, and pickling salt.
Fixing fresh beets is very simple. First you cut off the tops and boil the beets just about to death. Beets take a long time to cook and you need to watch them to be sure they donât boil dry and burn. Large beets can take as much as a full hour to cook. Theyâre done when you can stick a fork in them easily.
