Definitely good to keep in mind. Although from my own personal experience, actual blood in my stool was much more dramatic and very obvious compared to beets. Blood tends to come out much darker than you would expect. Mine was also very bloody - so I knew it wasn't coloring from food. But I don't know how close my experience is to other's And that doesn't mean that I don't have a mild panic attack the day after I have beets!
