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.
Stove top: Boil the beets in water until tender, about 20 to 30 minutes. Or steam them, using less water. Oven roasting: Place peeled and quartered beets in a single layer in a roasting pan or baking dish.Add a few tablespoons of olive oil, some minced garlic, salt and pepper to taste, and combine.OOKING. Beets can be cooked on the stove top, in the oven, by microwave or on the grill, each method requiring varying degrees of time and attention. But all are easy. Beets should be cooked just enough to be easily pierced with a knife, but still have some crunch to them.
