I thought Id share knowledge about this super food because its super important in creating better health. Im talking about leafy greens; kale,all types of spinach,lettuce,parsley and various herbs.
Leafy greens in their raw state are a complete food, loaded with Iron, vitamins,calcium,magnesium and potassium. These are all the alkaline minerals that our body needs. Greens are in fact the best source of alkaline minerals in the world, next to sea vegetables.
Chorophyll is what gives leaft greens their colour. A molecule of Chlorophyll is almost identical in form and composition to a molecule of human blood, giving our blood exactly what it needs - natures blood transfusion. This is so vital because the health of our blood determines the health of our organs.
The chlorophyll also shows their rich content of antioxidants. Antioxidants protect the plant cells from free radicals that are generated by sun rays. Eating raw greens means that this benefit becomes your benefit from the inside out, and it shows!
Also, an abundance of raw greens in your diet reduces unwanted cravings of salt and fatty foods.
I have noticed my own skin improve from making this one dietary change alone because Leafy greens are filled with beta-carotene, essential for renewing skin cells, re-building skin and giving you a clear glowing complexion, healthy looking hair and nails.
There are a variety of ways that you could incorporate more into your life;
add raw spinach,parsley and herbs to your salads
use swiss chard to make wraps filled with fruit. the combination is delicious
make green smoothies and juices daily
Experiement, explore and make the change in ways that are best for you.
To your health and hapiness
