Default Beet Greens on P1?

Good morning all. Anyone know if beet greens are allowed in P1? And has anyone tried them blended into a drink, say wild berry yogurt or chocolate drink?
Thanks!

They only have one more net carb compared to spinach (cup to cup/raw) and no sugar that I can see. I would take a bite of the raw beet green and if it doesn't seem any more assertive than spinach it would probably disappear the same way. Of course, you might want to check the fibrousness of the stems...wouldn't want a stringy drink.

Since IP is about more than Cals/fat/Carbs, I'd also check the acid/alkaline balance.
IP is an alkaline diet and some things are off limits due to that.
