Hi.. Yes! You can eat beetroot. Also you can have a small cup of beetroot juice too. But make sure u eat in moderate quantities. It is a good source of iron and fibre.

Hello dear. Congratulations for a beautiful phase of life. And yes you can eat beetroot as it's great source of iron and antioxidants too. Best for detoxification.
But in pregnancy generally acidity issues r there. So suggest u to boil it before u eat. It will b palatable also and easy to digest.
For more details, feel free to call😊👍
